Unless parents pull all their kids from school-—screw them. I’m sorry, that sounds harsh but we did this when we lived in NJ. We had to cut back on almost everything, work extra jobs and over time. There’s too many options but asking government to resolve a government problem IS a losing battle. Pull your kids and fight the taxes.

Too bad the parents didn’t demand that teachers be fired when they let boys in the girls bathroom.

Too many people, especially government officials, have lost the fear they used to have a getting tarred and feathered, beaten, or run out of town on a rail like the colonists did. I believe only three or four decades ago an educator doing this would be at risk of getting shot dead by a parent as a pervert.

The government should’ve seen January 6 as a rattlesnake warning rattle. Instead they have started tormenting the snake to make it stop rattling. This only ends in conflict. A blind man can see it coming.

When I was in 10th grade we read “The Jungle”. Not excerpts, the whole (uncensored version) book. Among other things it featured, rape, sexual blackmail, prostitution, human trafficking, heroin addition, passed out drunks being eaten by rats, etc. Now I don't know anything about this Butterfly book, but we should be careful not to infantile 16 year olds and then magically expect then to be mature people when they reach the age of majority two years later.

When my daughter was in 10th grade I went to pick up her book requirement, and flipped through to find a page describing a woman having sex with a horse. (A Clockwork Orange)

She got the alternative book.

An important issue here apparently is that the students were reading parts of this book aloud in class. Apparently passages that made them uncomfortable.

And no doubt the book comes with liberal atheist agendas.
