Another Parent Silenced At A School Board Meeting
Go2Tutors ^ | Jul 13, 2022 | Jessica Marie Baumgartner

Despite recently passing laws to protect parental rights and prevent the sexualization of young children, some Florida schools are still carrying pornographic books. This was so concerning to one parent that he attended a school board meeting to discuss the matter. When addressing the issue and attempting to read a passage from one of these books, Florida school board members cut off the father's microphone and have yet to properly remedy the situation.....

The Florida board members attempted to excuse this act by claiming that since the meeting was being broadcast, reading such content would violate federal and state laws, but many are questioning why books that cannot be read and broadcast on the air are being made available to underage students at all. To add insult to injury, the Florida school board has yet to release a statement or take any action to resolve this dispute......

This is not the first time that school boards have worked to silence parents opposing pornographic books in schools, and many families fear it will not be the last. While some progressive activists claim that removing sexually graphic books is censorship, lawmakers in other areas have had to pass legislation that ensures children are not being exposed to sexually charged adult material. This displays the growing divide between authoritative entities like the Florida school boards and the mothers and fathers who are simply asking schools to teach their children core subjects in order to provide them with a proper education that helps them grow into happy, healthy, productive members of society.

Amazing, silence the parent for reading a book available in the school library because of pornography, but continue to allow the book in the library.

Now we see why there was such a movement to remove Tom Sawyer and Huckleberry Finn from school libraries.

They needed the shelf space for kiddie PORN!

If I was that parent I’d be calling Gov. DeSantis’s office. Let him shed a little light on the situation in front of news cameras.

ANOTHER REASON TO HOMESCHOOL

This ping list is for the other articles of interest to homeschoolers about education and public school. This can occasionally be a fairly high volume list. Articles pinged to the Another Reason to Homeschool List will be given the keyword of ARTH. (If I remember. If I forget, please feel free to add it yourself)

The main Homeschool Ping List handles the homeschool-specific articles. I hold both the Homeschool Ping List and the Another Reason to Homeschool Ping list. Please freepmail me to let me know if you would like to be added to or removed from either list, or both.

And I bet everyone thought it was a Felony to give or expose children to Porn. Why isn’t the State AG prosecuting the entire board for Contributing to the delinquency of a minor??

Pope John Paul II called it “exploitation by sexualization.” Sick people push tempting stuff on young people.
