[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't know why it's such a contentious issue with many of you. The amount of gaslighting and hyperbole that parents are buying into is disgusting and hurtful.

I have not seen a single assignment many of you claim has been included in curriculums. I would blow it off to trolls, but I've heard parents slip and admit that it will factor in their following school selection. They are so threatened by something they know nothing about.

I don't understand why.

I am liberal but against DEIB being taught in school.  There’s so much nuance and it’s really tough for kids to understand so they just repeat talking points.  My DD talks about white privilege but doesn’t understand what it means - just that she has it and she shouldn’t take advantage of it?!  It’s all just someone’s opinion and I’d prefer that my kids have more of a classical education and learn grammar, sentence structure, etc.  Frankly teaching DEIB seems lazy on the schools part - teach those kids some hard to learn curriculum!
