> You don't get to pick and choose your kid's public school teachers, either Where I live you do. You can put in a request to have your child go to another school, either in your district or even out of your district. Or enroll them in private school, or charter school, or, heck, home school them. The difference is, doing this means you as a parent are on the hook for getting your child to these schools (and in the case of home school, teaching as well). But just because something is inconvenient doesn't mean it doesn't exist. And these options mean you can put your child where they will excel.

> But just because something is inconvenient doesn't mean it doesn't exist. And these options mean you can put your child where they will excel. Exactly. If I don't want to live or visit somewhere where I might encounter certain police officers or departments, I have the option of making that happen. And that option means my kid won't be on the wrong side of those particular people or departments abusing their power. Sites like the OP give people that option.
