My child will also not refer to any teachers as Mrs, since this signifies that they are married and could be a part of a two-parent family!

Sure, keep them at home if that's what your religion teaches you. SCOTUS says you have that right.

Unclear if SCOTUS requires an alternative option for every religious objection. Like if a parent didn’t want their kid to have female teachers.

Part of the request was to opt out, but MCPS stated if you do that it would be an unexcused absence. SCOTUS effectively stated if you opt out, it's an excused absence.

Work on your critical reasoning skills.

You can’t force a child to stay home, that’s unethical and illegal, use your critical reasoning skills.

No one's forced. They're welcome to come to school to participate in that day's lessons.

Not if the choose to opt out of the lesson. Are you stupid or just feigned ignorance? If a parent chooses to opt out you can’t force the child to stay home. That’s ILLEGAL!

In this scenario, the parent is choosing to keep the child home.

No in this scenario the parent is choosing to opt the child’s out of a specific lesson. This does not mean the child must stay home and miss all other lessons that aren’t woke. The school must provide an alternative lesson or at least a study hall type situation. This has been the case for many years for other opt outs, you don’t just get to say you now must keep your child home because they are opting out of lgbtq story hour. retaliation and exclusionary and discriminatory and thus illegal.

+1. Perhaps not exactly relevant, but my kids are in a DMV private school that tried this same level of shenanigans with their so-called "health ed class" for 7th graders. I asked to see the curriculum and when I learned that the instructors were brought in from Planned Parenthood, I pulled my kid from the class.

What’s wrong with planned parenthood?

They refused to use the words “boys” “girls,” “men,” “women” etc. I don’t want my middle schoolers taught with an ideology that refers to women as “the partner with eggs.”

WHO CARES! Some of you need to worry about real sh!t.

I care. Thus, I pulled my kid from the class. See how that works?

You’re insane. Good luck to your child.

I thought their message was fine. What's the problem with saying "It also sends a chilling message to many valued members of our diverse community"?

You are failing to see the issue here.

MCPS = LGBTQ lobby

Court simply said that parents have right to opt out. MCPS allows opt out for lots of things. It does nto send any message to LGBTQ community. Only a LGBTQ lobby group will interepret court ruling like that.

The other things kids were opting out for were for older kids, and they could sit quietly in a room by themselves, but five-year-olds can’t.

The ruling actually gave MCPS and now they don’t have to keep the kids in school and find something else for them to do. They can make them stay home.

In what world do you think you can just “make” children stay home? That’s not the way it works sweetheart. You now have to find something else for the 5 year olds to do instead. Otherwise you’re discriminating based on religion, which is not legal.

I’m not “making kids stay home” SCOTUS is saying you can have an excused absence if you don’t want your kids in a lesson that is being taught that day.

I’m here for it. Teachers get to continue teaching. Administrators don’t have to deal with your child. You get to opt out, which is what the lawsuit was all about.

It’s not discrimination because it’s your choice.

You got your way, but you’re still complaining.

This was a decision on the preliminary injunction, not the full merits. And for the PI they were asking for this limited relief. Remains to be seen how the case will play out. Personally I hope MCPS finds a way to end it.

definitely MCPS can let these kids take excused abcenses while the case plays out.

I wouldn't want the bigot children around my child, either.

Except opting out does NOT equal staying home. It means you do something else, that’s the job of the school, to educate. Sans 🏳️‍🌈 agenda.

Nobody is going to leave kids of any age unsupervised in school. Are you familiar with school today? Kids of all ages can get sent to the media center/library.

Exactly. It’s a perfect compromise. Everyone should be happy.

So why isn’t the left?

Actually, the left is quite happy. The religious bigots stay home when they’re teaching elementary kids about everyone.

They can’t be sent to the library when they’re five years old. The librarian isn’t just sitting there waiting for your bigoted child to show up.

Parents will be notified and they will keep their kids home and get an unexcused absence.

The best of both worlds.

Ha. No. That’s not how it’s going to work.

If I have a 5 YO and I need to be in work or travel that day, you can be sure she’ll be in school. The school will have to accommodate her during objectionable “story time.”

So you want an entire school system to be bigoted because you need childcare coverage?

For younger kids, there’s no other place to put them so they have to stay home. Older kids can go to the cafeteria.

It was actually the three descendants that pointed out that it wasn’t good for these kids to be staying home so much and missing education but the conservatives they were on your side and they said nope it’s OK. You get to stay home. It’s an excused absence.

Congratulations the conservatives are on your side. Keeping you at home making you miss work.

Yes, I did and I also read the descent,. The descent is actually on your side. They said it would be too much time away from education to get excused absences. Every time they read a book that shows a boy and a boy can marry each other.

LGBTQ was the fastest growing religion until today!

I can’t believe MCPS thought they actually had a leg to stand on. What an embarrassment!

No they don’t just stay home. My child is going to school every single day, and my child is NOT being indoctrinated by your lesbian nonsense. Both can be true, if you try this nonsense on our children it will be another lawsuit!

Just how much LGBTQIA education is going on that kids will miss “too much time”?
