be my guest ;-) but i think you do not give "progressives" credit. many whom i know think exactly alike on this issue. for example, in my kids' middle school there was a "progressive" but not mandatory peer education group called G.R.A.P.E. - it did musical theater, skits and comedy on the subject of harrassment, hazing, use of alcohol and drugs, irresponsible sexual behavior including early sex, and they even touched upon rape, and of course on tolerance towards people who are different - in color or language or disability, and the unacceptability of any hostile expression towards such people.

the kids wrote the skits and songs and dances themselves. they [erformed at their schoola nd at local schools in the area.

i don't know all the "outcomes" of the whole school, but the participants in GRAPE were teh stars in highschool, the best, the cleanest kids ever, involved in civics or community service on tehir own (not forced, for college creds)and all went to the best colleges. actually mostly the ivies.

so, "progressives" do the same. education. repetition. learning.
