Teaching American values in school can help shape a child's .?

Schools don't teach values that is the parents job and it is the parents job to shape the child. Before a child ever reaches school the parent is the first teacher and what the child will become is set before they are 4 years old. Unfortunately many parents expect the school to be the parent, teacher, nurse, and counselor. This is an impossible task because without the parent the school can't do it all. The parent is the most important person (or should be) in a child's life and who or what the child grows up to be is the responsibility of the parent not the school.
