[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Teach your kids what you want them to know. There are a million free resources out there. You can complain all you want, but any change will be far too late for your child to benefit. You don’t have to stay at home or homeschool, but, if it is really important to you for your child to know a thing, you teach it.[/quote] I love this answer. “Teach your kid geography/history/social science on your own! What’s wrong with you, expecting that school will teach your kid any of that!” Ridiculous. [/quote] It is practical advice, you just want some SJW kudos as you feign outrage and continually fail to actually accomplish anything. Carry on pissing into the wind, the rest of have stuff to do.[/quote] WTF are you prattling on about? I have an exceptionally successful career, as does my husband. As a result, we send our kid to private school, where she learns content. You can continue to bitch about how parents should just accept that schools won’t teach it. We take care of our kid. And I have no idea where the hell you got SJW from.[/quote] I know what she means. We pulled our kid from a lackluster pk-12 progressive DC school. It’s lower school academics were beyond slow and lackluster, it coddled the kids, and it went way overboard with its SJW curriculum at the direct expense of civics, Grammar, spelling, foreign language exposure, traditional social studies (geography, context, history), Etc. The gaps in spelling, grammar, math facts, and historical context were huge and needed heavy supplementing or tutoring. And after a year of that we left the school. [/quote]
