There are so many amazing Natgeo documentaries on Disney+ it’s ridiculous the teacher wasted time showing this movie. It is not based on a novel the students read either. She sounds like a lazy teacher. And not too bright if she works in Florida and thought no one would complain. If you go to common sense media there are a bunch of complaints from wacky parents.

+1. It's unbelievable what passes for "education" these days.

Whether or not people agree with religion, there are a lot of religious, conservative, or traditional people that don't want their kids to view materials that are counter to their values.

If you think that they are wrong and want their kids to view materials that promote lifestyles that are counter to their values, that is also an ideological position.

So rather than pit one ideological position against another, let's leave ideology out of the classroom and stop talking to elementary students about sex, full stop.

"lifestyles"

How are you going to get rid of all content that "promote lifestyles" when literally most school material involves human beings? According to your way of thinking, we all are promoting our own lifestyles. You are promoting your own lifestyle, whatever that may be.

Also, where is there sex in the film she showed?

Yes, humans have lifestyles. But they aren't showing a film of my lifestyle to children. Nor would I recommend doing that, it's NSFW and definitely not for school.

So you agree, no movies that show any kind of human romantic relationship/partnership of any kind should ever be shown to children.

Good lord you sound like a scrooge. The kids had just taken a standardized test. It's a Disney film for crissake. Lighten up.

Just because it is disney, doesn't mean there isn't a message.

Old disney movie, gay implied characters are evil characters. The Lion King uncle lion, little mermaid sea witch, evil vizer in aladdin, Robin Hood prince John lion etc. All over the top campy characters.

On other hand, Disney movies say ignore parents, they know nothing (but parent's turn out ot be correct) so subsersive in another direction.

Also, more recently, very pro LGBT messaging.

We think disney ok, but may or may not agree with the values of some people.

Is English your second language?

Yes, this is why the teacher had signed permission slips from all of the parents saying that their kid could watch a PG movie. She had deferred to "parental guidance".


But she failed to get permission from DeSantis. Freedom means asking permission from the government.

The movie has a rating: PG that means "parental guidance" as some parts may be inappropriate for children.

It doesn't say TG: "teacher guidance."
