I share your frustration with schools. Far too much money goes into administration and not enough for good teachers, supplies, etc. But when you have teacher's unions in bed with politicians it seems unsolvable.
I agree that the children are not responsible for the behavior of the parents. It is a delicate balancing act to provide the proper level of support while not creating dependency. I am reminded of the results of welfare reform as an example of how to change the dynamic. People went and got a job when they realized the gravy train was over. As it says in the bible, the poor will always be with us. I prefer private charity because they are more efficient in allocating funds (many of them anyway). But with government these programs always turn into vote buying schemes.
