Children should be told the truth. It will be in their best interest that they find out sooner rather than finding out for themselves later. Political correctness instructs that all are equal. From that false premise comes the wasteful programs that mandate no one can advance until a measure of that advancement is redistributed among others. Whether it take the form of affirmative action or cash payments or services, it creates a false obligation and a kind of embarrassment to achievers. The fact is that we are known by our differences. Kids in school who can't or refuse to learn should be expelled. Let them make their own way in manual labor or private studies. But they shouldn't drag others down to their level. Teachers have no right to preach a quasi-religious philosophy of equality. What do they know?
The real world is slowly replacing political correctness with misanthropy. It doesn't have to swing that far. If the truth is told of differences among all creatures then each will find his or hers own place without feeling falsely oppressed.

A Simple Solution To The World Food Crisis
If it's one thing that liberals or politically correct types can't stand is a simple or obvious answers to a problem. Simple answers preempt the preferred complicated, costly ones that liberals relish.
The latest challenge is for a simple or costly answer to the world's food cost and availability crisis. United Nation reports show that Nigerians spend 73% of their income on buying food, Vietnamese spend 65%, Indonesians pay out 50% and the poor Hatians have almost no money to spend on almost no available foodstocks. One thing these underfed people have in common is they continue to breed and have multiple children. And thus they perpetuate the dismal cycle.
So what's to be done? Should the world plant more crops and build up more dependancy for irresponsible parents and then include their children in an open ended support cycle? We tried that already. It doesn't work. How about we just say "no" to more food and aid unless the dumb mokeys say "no" to more children?
Monkeys in the jungle have more sense than these people. And we become as dumb as the Nigerians etc. if we perpetuate their cycle of misery.
