[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]I am going with teachers unions. Parents shouldn’t be telling schools what to teach. I am so done with this era where everyone thinks they know more than[b] experts[/b].[/quote]

Teachers' unions are not experts.  Teachers unions are out to promote themselves--not the teachers and not the schools, and definitely not the students.

Oh yeah? Where do you teach? In a public school system, or some kind of unaccredited bible-thumper private? I’m betting the latter based on your absurd post. It reads like typical anti-union trash talking points.

Union teachers are the only bulwark standing between society and the brainwashed spawn being raised and indoctrinated by their rightwing loon parents. If it weren’t for public school teachers offsetting all these idiot parents and their lunacy, we’d be up to our eyeballs in school age little fascists. Teachers are typically the only people exposing these kids to Progressive ideals and questioning the nonsense these children are being fed at home. [/quote]

Assuming you aren't a troll, you are part of the problem. Many parents don't want teachers indoctrinating/pushing political ideologies in a public school classroom. [/quote]

If you think teaching facts and kindness is a “political ideology” then private is probably a good choice for you.

You're right. My kid goes to a non religious private school in another country (we are from DC but husband is on a temp assignment) and he has a "values" class once a week. It's great actually- they teach basics like honesty, respect, responsibility, perseverance, flexibility, empathy, etc, ALL without some stupid "Progressive" lens that teaches kids to hate each other.[/quote]

You are misinformed. Public schools are not teaching that here.
