I read in Psychology Today about this years ago; public schools had a problem with rampant sexual abuse of children by teachers and other "educators" that was almost entirely ignored by the media and the do-gooders who were so offended when it was found in Catholic schools. There were considerably more incidents of child sexual abuse in public schools than in Catholic, or any other private schools.

Naturally Google disappeared that particular article comparing public v. Catholic schools, but I did find this, this from '24, and there was also this from a year ago.

I would add that public schools are completely dominated by teacher's unions and most of the school teachers are leftist/Democrats. One survey put that number at 87% for financial support of Democrats in 2022, for instance. And this survey had 41% of school teachers claiming to be Democrat, but another 30% claiming to be "independent". Only 27% claimed to be Republican. I think it fair to say that the thirty percent of independents almost always vote with the Democrats. (There are countless reasons why a teacher would claim to be an independent no matter how radically left wing they may be.)

At any rate this radicalized educational system (and don't forget the school administrators, who are if anything worse than the teachers) is also abusing their charges.

As a man thinketh so shall he be, the Bible tells us. Public school teachers thinketh along some amoral lines, and the end result is child rapes and other forms of sexual abuse.

The media beat the Catholic Church to death with accusations (many of which were well-founded) of sexual abuse of children. But the public schools are worse and we hear nary a peep about it.

The best thing anyone could do for their children is to get them out of public schools.
