As a retired school psychologist in the 1990s and juvenile probation officer before that in the 1960s the author has seen, over the years, an increasing level of violence, escapism into drugs, aberrant life styles and vicious bullying resulting in some fragile children committing suicide. School personnel and police officials will tell you that these are very anxious and depressing---and uncertain times for young people. They need our caring attention. The author’s concern in these regards is the gradual erosion of the professionalism of our teachers and public education in general. Public education is the bulwark of our democratic society and if we neglect it we will suffer an erosion of the quality of our lives and our position of leadership in the world.
