"[T]he child should be taught to consider his instructor... superior to the parent in point of authority.... The vulgar impression that parents have a legal right to dictate to teachers is entirely erroneous.... Parents have no remedy as against the teacher." | by: | John Swett (1830-1913) Superintendent of California Public School System, "Father of the California public school" system, "Horace Mann of the Pacific" |
