My Thoughts about this Quote:

The thought behind this is that once obligatory schooling is chosen. Where are the limits?

Ruling over other peoples thoughts? Deciding what is important? Judging and deciding what should be judged? Deciding what one should do with ones time? Choosing what si important and what is not?

Check. Check. Check. Check. Check. "The school" can do all that. So, were are the limits?
