Sorry Scot Dutchy. I'll try to be more careful.
I did just learn this morning that several major atheist writers and thinkers, including Dr. Dawkins, believe it is child abuse to teach ones children the fundamental of the parents religion, though he stopped short of calling for the removal of such children from their parents. John Dewey, late prominent educational philosopher, believed that for American schools to do a proper job (I'm paraphrasing) in directing America society, the best thing that could happen would be to remove the children of immigrants from their parents. He clearly did not want traditional parental values from immigrants to be propagated
I don't know who this Dewey is, but you couldn't choose your example more poorly. First, because the US doesn't really import creationists. They are born there. So taking away immigrants' children won't solve the indocrination issue. Second, almost all Americans are "children of immigrants" anyway. Even the president and his first lady. So what do we do, take away all children but the natives ? Good luck with that.
And third, what are those so called "traditional parental immigrants values" to begin with ? There is no such thing, as immigrants come from extremely various places, with different cultures.
