Geee Posted November 25, 2022 Share Posted November 25, 2022 Fox News It’s no accident that you can read and understand this sentence. A solid education empowered you with this fundamental skill.

That’s not just appalling – it’s heartbreaking, especially because most parents think their kids are doing fine. How did this happen?
