[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote] Yet, what the anti-CC folks are advocating for is to eliminate even the "slow and pointless" of simple picture books and emergent readers for Kindergartners (and again, tens of millions of us grew up just fine reading them in K) in favor of nothing but the spoken word. From dumb to dumber is the direction that they want to pursue. [/quote] Obviously, you have trouble with your own reading skills if that is your interpretation of the anti CC group. [/quote] No, I am aware that the anti-CC group *thinks* they are improving things (though, I'm not sure how, because they haven't actually proposed any improvement other than "repeal" just as the GOP doesn't have any bonafide proposal for making healthcare more affordable other than "repeal ObamaCare" which absolutely would not do that), but what the anti-CC folks are blissfully unaware of are things like, just how bad things were before CC, and how despite whatever intended misguided altruism they may have, the anti-CC folks in fact make the situation worse, not better. Just spelling out the reality, which is contrary to their perceptions.[/quote]
