What does a concerned parent do when there are no local schools offering an education consisting of a curriculum with which you you disagree?
Home School Them
Teach Them Your Values
Sometimes one must take matters into one's own hands. Instill your beliefs in your child no matter what . . . Especially if you were taught that your god demands it of you.
Good Golly!

Jonathan Southworth "John" Ritter was an American actor, voice over artist and comedian perhaps best known for having played Jack Tripper and Paul Hennessy in the ABC sitcoms Three's Company and 8 Simple Rules, respectively.

Note:
I met John Ritter in the late 1980s in the lobby of The Contemporary Resort at Walt Disney World near Orlando FL, where I was employed for a short time. He seemed to be a regular ol' 'down home' guy.
