This is an FCPS issue because they are requiring students to use a specific platform for education and as parents we can't put safety features on their platform.  At home I have safety feature where my kids can't access porn.  By failing to safeguard its chosen platform, FCPS allowed kids and teachers to be subjected to racial slurs and porn.  They specifically said teachers can't use zoom because there aren't enough safeguards, took four weeks to make their chosen platform available and didn't safeguard it against the things they used to say zoom was off limits.  Makes no sense.  This is not just about high schoolers and teachers being exposed to this stuff.  Even with the elementary school link, anyone with access to the link could get on the lesson without having to log in.  A delinquent older sibling could easily expose elementary kids to porn or whatever.  I'm glad FCPS quickly addressed the issue, but this was definitely an FCPS issue for not ensuring that all kids are protected from this stuff.  They have sole control over the security features, parents have no control of appropriate safeguards.  Yes, the parents of the "bad actors" need to do a better job, but that's a completely different issue.  [/quote]
