[–]mharmless 4 insightful - 1 fun4 insightful - 0 fun5 insightful - 1 fun -  (1 child)

It was the primary reason I left. Every time I signed that document I felt like I was selling off a piece of my soul for easy money and benefits. One day my wife and I were talking about our child and what we wanted to do for his schooling, and realized that if we were unwilling to send our own kid into this madness that continuing to work there anyway was in some small way consenting to these wrongs.

Wish I'd had the guts to try to be a whistle-blower, but the price is too high.
