[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What's bizarre to me is the determination shown on threads relating to opting out of the DC-CAS, and now the PARCC, to motivate other parents to embrace one's views on mandatory standardized testing in public schools. I'm reminded of my grandparents' view on reproductive rights and gay unions, that of "good Catholics," when I was a kid. We're right, you're wrong; we're good, thoughtful, upstanding and civic-minded, those who disagree are strange, bad, shrill and obsessive. We deserve a voice, while you should shut up and do as we, and the federal and state governments, say. Ours is not to question why. The Pope, the cardinals, the bishops etc. know best of course.
