You are unable or do not want to understand what I have posted. You seem to caught up in a vicious cycle of anti moral values conservative thought. And even more puzzling, a naive? or deliberate misunderstading of what is going on in mnay public schools.
Once more: We all have a right to express our views although the courts have been rather vague at times about the extent of that in the public schools. In fact, the curriculum taught in preschool through college is designed by humanists and based on a post modern secularist version of history and science. Instead of the rigor of academics, the educational institutions focus on programing and conditioning students (with that programing later reinforced in the home via television and books)with mushy modern math, PC history, and Evolution as fact. Public schools have become places where the school system (and parent education and support services) is designed to directly undermine parents' authority and destroy the natural child-parent relationship.
Apparently none of this has reached you. Let me know when you confront it for the first time. There are suport systems out here.
God Bless the bus driver with the fortitude to tackle these inhuman forces.
Apparently the bus driver was discussing subjects the parents felt were inappropriate, with the very young students.
If you discuss inappropriate subjects with my children, I think that is undermining my authority, and I will complain - as these parents did.
I think the school board acted appropriately in disciplining the bus driver. Perhaps they went overboard, but they did so in support of a conservative value you claim to support - that of parental authority.
I'm not nearly as moronic as you would like to portray me. I understand very well what is going on here. You are so filled with fury over the liberals spouting their nonsense that you've decided that it's fine and dandy if Conservatives do it too.
In the name of "fairness" you want your equal share of filling the minds of young children with "truth". My position is that both sides are wrong when they share personal views with the children. I want both sides to knock it off.
This has nothing to do with some "antimoral values" bilge. This is about being a parent who wants to raise her own children and not wanting anyone who works in an official capacity for the public school interfering with what I teach them.
If Mrs. Mayor were my personal friend and had this discussion in my house, I wouldn't argue with it at all. I happen to agree with her view.
Thank you Eleni, I have been reading and reading.
Long thread with plenty of opinions.
I'll be beck, it's been a long day.
