It's getting a bit out of hand where every single statement online is now getting a [Citation Needed] afterwards. There isn't a randomized controlled study for every single aspect of the universe, we'll have to use intuition occasionally.

- emptytheory 12y agoStatements of preference are different than assertions about the world. The comic is funny, but it does have an antiphilosophical spirit, especially if you think it relates to the present conversation. I'm sorry. I care. (sorry (sorry)) ((((((sorry))))))
- jotux 12y ago>It's getting a bit out of hand where every single statement online is now getting a [Citation Needed] afterwards I wasn't asking if there was evidence just to be annoying, I was asking because the statement was exactly opposite of my expectation and I wanted to know if there was evidence to back it up. My personal experience with charter schools is that it's where many parents "dump" kids that were either kicked or failed out of public school. This comes from many conversations I've had with a high-school teacher I've become good friends at that switched from teaching public school to charter school ~5 years ago. I admit my perspective is very narrow but was hoping there was actual data to support the chart-school-parents-more-involved statement.
