My Daughter Brought This Home From School. Seems Like Unusual To Ask A 1st Grader
Twitter ^ | 03/19/18 | Finn McCool

So my daughter brought this home from school. Seems like unusual questions to ask a 1st grader, especially the third question. Would they have asked the same questions while Obama was President?  My daughter knows who Trump is but we don’t talk politics with her because she’s 6. She’s being taught about honesty, respect, kindness, responsibility and hard work. Politics have no place at her age. Of course if she has questions I answer in terms & words she understands.  To ask these questions seems like indoctrination or propaganda research to me. How would a 6 year old form an opinion on Trump’s kindness? His ability to keep us safe? The MSM? Which has a clear bias against him & is pushing the gun control narrative. Parental influence?

I saw this post on Twitter and thought it was worth the share.

Unreal indoctrination going on in the public schools.

This guy says his daughter is 6 years old. Good grief what 6 year old child is interested in politics?

Teacher needs some basis for judging her/his students. Apparently it’s going to depend on their politics.

Or maybe they are simply spying on mom and dad. Your kid will turn you In to the Deepp State concentration camp guards.

Seems a bit crazy to ask a 6 year old if they will VOTE in a Presidential Election.

This comes from the NEA and Teacher’s Union being a wing of the Democrat Party.

This is what happens when GOD is not in the school and Parents don’t really care because they are to busy with their own life.

Send this test in tomorrow.

1. Do you think the teacher is bright enough for a 1st grade class?
2. Do you feel safe alone around the teacher?
3. Would you take a class again taught by the teacher?

I wasn’t quite seven years old, when I sat up with my Daddy to see JFK elected. The whole process, as I watched it on the television, fascinated me; and it was the beginning of my interest in politics.

(However, I wouldn’t trust that everything you find on Twitter is true...)

If that came home with my First Grader, I would be at that School bright and early the next day demanding to know who decided this had anything to do with Educating my Child.

Can 6-year olds read well enough to even comprehend the questions? Or, will that be a “guided” class discussion afterwards?

That is quite outrageous to be asking a first grader. My guys are now in fourth grade and we’ve seen a few things to complain about. Most egregious was a teacher telling them that Columbus Day was simply a banking holiday—the school let the teacher retire rather than face investigation and discipline. The global warming BS is persistent every week, really every day.

I remember when the Antifa black shirts were beating up conservatives in Berkeley. A few of the black shirts were arrested. One of them was an elementary school teacher.

My daughter’s a HS senior, taking a bunch of AP classes.

In pretty much every non-STEM class, she gets subjected to the teacher’s opinions about President Trump throughout essentially the entire period, every day. Some of the students are getting worried because the teachers aren’t teaching anything related to the actual subject.

The child did not vote before, and therefore, can not vote again.

I was fascinated, too....when my dad sat me down and told me about Joe the Bootlegger. Same year he told me..."Don't believe everything you read".

JFK was running at the time.

I was in a Catholic School and we were all bussed to see this pretty boy.

Well, I didn’t know about differences among candidates and parties, back then. I was just learning about the process.

But JFK was certainly superior to any Democrat president that came after him.

He’d be almost 100 years old, if he were still alive; and if his stances on the most pressing issues had remained the same, he’d be what we call a ‘Conservative’, today.

The parents should send it back with the following:

My daughter’s opinion is based on what her big brother tells tells her. Therefore, you should first send the questionnaire to him. Then she will have an opinion.
