So this is eye opening.
In pursuit of Q's examine history books, I asked my 11 year old daughter to bring home her history book for me to look at tomorrow.
She had no idea what I was talking about. None. My wife tried helping and she got a crazy-eyed stare when she tried another tack and asked her if her teacher ever asks the class to get out their 'text books' and turn to page xyz.
And the crazy part is my family is pretty solidly well-off, and the school district my kids are in is, if not 'the' best in our metro area, it's pretty high up there.
What the hell happened since the mid 90s and I graduated…
