And to the teachers out there - how much control do you want over your students?  Do you believe that parents have no idea how to teach, what their kids need, and[b] should simply shut up, like they wanted Mr. Baer to do, because he clearly has no right to be upset that his 9th grade daughter was assigned porn?[/b] [/quote]

They wanted Mr. Baer to shut up because he had already been heard, his issue had already been addressed by the school district on the day it was brought up, and it was someone else's turn to express their thoughts and feelings on their own child's education.

As far as him having the right to "be upset", as a teacher I can't tell you how many times I have explained to children that they have the right to feel however they feel, but that right doesn't excuse them from adhering to rules of civil discourse including waiting for your turn to speak.

If it was not addressed to his satisfaction, it's his parental duty to take it further [/quote]

It's his parental duty to take it further, by disrupting a public meeting? Well, ok. If he wants to disrupt a public meeting, he can disrupt a public meeting. And then he can accept the consequences for disrupting a public meeting, which include getting arrested.

And this has what, exactly, to do with the Common Core?[/quote]
