[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Father here.  I feel his pain — with my kids in local schools facing a remarkable level of unwanted indoctrination.  But, he can’t just declare his desire and force change.  I hope you and he can find some level of reasonable accommodation — for the sake of your children.  But, again, the default is the current as-is and it takes a mutual OK to change…[/quote]

I ended up pulling my kids out of school and homeschooling for a while until we found another school.  What really killed me was that so much time was being spent on this social indoctrination and social emotional learning, but no one seemed to have time to spend with kids who were struggling with math or writing.   So, they were going to school during the day where they were being taught social values, then coming home where I had to teach them how to do long division and read actual good books that weren’t free from scholastic or written by Dav Pilkey.  It’s so backwards.

Thanks for this relevant post. /s

You can have Omaha. In fact, please stay there. [/quote]

It’s relevant that this same issue exists in flyover country.   You can’t move away from it.[/quote]

No it's relevant that it only exists in your mind. Stop mainlining whatever right wing media source is feeding you this BS and return to reality. [/quote]

Because this is an anonymous forum I'll say this: I'm a bra-burning liberal and a single mom at that. So I have no time for Fox, OAN, or the rest of the propaganda-pushing arm of the RNC. But what PP said about teaching their kid long division at home has been my experience as well.  I'm happy about social issues being folded into the curriculum and reflecting the changing electorate. I'm not happy about the fact that I have to teach my DD how to conjugate verbs, multiply fractions, or any other number of basic elementary school concepts at home but she's full of stories of this or that classmate who has declared that they are bisexual. My response is always the same: good for them. What else happened today honey? I don't make a thing out of it because it's not a thing. Also these kids are 10 years old so yeah, it bothers me.[/quote]
