"Values" are never taught in school? What school are they talking about? [View all]

Last week, I walked into my son's after school class to pick up my son. When a classmate told him I was there, he jokingly said "That's not my dad. That's my grandpa". I thought nothing of it (knowing his sense of humor) but a few minutes later he walked up and apologized because the teacher told him to. That's when it occurred to me how Republicans and others on the right complain that character values are not taught in public schools. All I can say to them is come to San Francisco USD.
