I mentioned the No Child Left Behind Act in my article today. A reader who was contacted by the military while in high school thanks to the NCLBA (but didn’t enlist, thank God) described it as No Child Left Behind the Front Lines. That’s right parents. Your 18 or 19 year old will be sent into “enemy” territory to die just like men twice his age that stayed in to get their pension.
