[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Another FCPS survey was given today.  I have the screenshot but can't paste it here, so I'll just summarize.  Nothing terrible, just so ridiculous and unnecessary.  And as always, focused on race and ethnicity.

Do you have positive relationships with any of these adults in your school? [i]Mark all that apply:[/i]

The principal or assistant principal
A teacher
My counselor
The School Resource Officer (SRO)
The School Security Officer (SSO)
An adult that shares my racial, ethnic, or cultural background
An adult that does not share my racial, ethnic, or cultural background
I do not have a positive relationship with any adult at this school[/quote]

I don’t understand your objection to this. Do you not think it's important for kids to have positive relationships with adults? Do you think it’s not important to know? Do you not think it matters if kids don’t see someone like themselves in roles of authority?[/quote]
Republicans had miserable, unhappy childhoods and they think everyone else should have miserable, unhappy childhoods. Any pretense to trying to make sure that all kids have a safe adult in their childhood is dangerous, because then that would offer a ray of light in a troubled child’s life and then what comes next? Some sort of intervention? Some kind of hope for a better future? We can’t have that! Everyone must experience the crucible of misery![/quote]

Wow - that’s some impressive projection!  I’m a Republican and had a wonderful childhood.  Of course I want all children to have the same.  I fail to see how having an adult “look like you” is the criteria for a “safe adult.”  Plenty of adults who look like kids are not - in any way - safe adults.  How about just, “Do you  have an adult at school with whom you feel safe and comfortable?”  Ethnicity and race is *totally* irrelevant.  [/quote]

Tell us you had adults in authority roles who looked like you when you were a child without telling us.

Republicans seem to have a harder time imagining others’ lives. [/quote]
