Right and wrong is taught by parents and in Sunday School, but teachers should be able to talk about the Ten Commandments and the Bible too.
Religion hasnt changed.. whats right is right and wrong is wrong, Parents and teachers who dont go to Church may not know whats right and wrong though.
I think a childs moral compass is set early in life, hopefully by good parenting.
If children have parents who cant tell right from wrong, how do we expect kids to figure it out?
No, the bible and ten commandments should not be a public school item. If you want your children to be taught religion, enroll them in a private school.
I was enrolled in a Catholic school for grades K through 7, then public schools 8 through 12 (just FYI).
Your statement " Parents and teachers who don't go to Church may not know whats right and wrong though." is about as ridiculous as it gets. Ever hear "Judge not.............." ????? Maybe you should look it up and practice it.
I know plenty of people that regularly attend church that I don't trust for/with anything, and there are people that don't attend that I would trust with anything, including my life. Attendance of church is not at all an indication of morals.
I don't like getting into religious discussions here, but I just can't ignore pompous statements like this.
And that's all I'm going to say.
To the OP, I think school teachers "is" doing as well as they can.
But they're handicapped by regulations.
