Fed-up parents’ novel education lawsuit is a chance to rescue our schools — and get rid of the lemons

Two Massachusetts families filed a class-action lawsuit against Big Education for “deceptive and fraudulent marketing and sale of products and services” Frida Ghitis : The lawsuit focuses on reading and literacy, but a win could allow the families’ consumer-protection argument to be deployed more widely.

Ghitis says Big Education provides a glaringly defective product that causes undeniable harm and is demonstrably fraudulent.

Wai Wah Chin : SEL indoctrination makes kids fragile, insecure, needy, angry.

Chin : Fraudulent and harmful SEL programs are another potential consumer-protection liability for Big Education.

She says Big Education plays a key role in incubating this irreversible harm to ever-increasing numbers of families.

Chin and Chin : Massachusetts families and all families must get consumer protection in education.
