Razor is correct. Of more importance is how the parent or guardian approaches such things. How aware do they make their child(ren) of such things? Do they discuss politics, policies, history, economics, government around the dinner table. Hell, do they even eat dinner together at all - ever?
Parents should enquire as to what their child's teacher is doing in regard to this program. How will the teacher approach it? (I know how I would. Unfortunately, I also know how my evening school colleague will approach it.)
