Gradually, however, the state expanded the responsibilities of the school system to include matters such as sports, and learning how to drive, and music, and dance, and social skills, and ultimately, all the matters which go to make up political correctness. These include matters of proper regard for homosexuality and sexual harassment.
As the state expanded the role of our schools beyond education into indoctrination, the state justified these intrusions into the souls of our children saying, in effect, that the children need to be "socialized." Indeed, here in Germany it is illegal to homeschool and the justification for this intrusion is just that, the children must be socialized with other children. In my view it, it means that the children must receive the proper doses of indoctrination. The state also justifies these intrusions by alleging that only the state can be relied upon with its resources to properly do the job. After all, the schools have staff psychologists, they have read all the latest books, they have counselors and they have read all the latest books, and the teachers are all well-trained and afforded syllabuses which to apply and which were all created by the same authorities who wrote the latest books..
The problem for the state is that when teachers behave like this it reveals the system to be foolish, incompetent. The emperor has no clothes. When teachers seduce their pupils, the system is really revealed to have no clothes.
