My family fled from the DDR regime back in the days.

I'm not saying public schools are the non plus ultra, I'm just saying that they are a good way to meet people from different backgrounds early on.

Also, I didn't have the impression all of my teachers were very "pro government". They were a very diverse bunch politically speaking.

I also find schools a good place to meet different people. However ask your parents if your teachers (even if not pro-DDR) were able to speak freely? Would you like to have teachers who speak through a mental/political filter?

"I'm just saying that they are a good way to meet people from different backgrounds early on."

Or hate the people your government tells you to hate.
