Crazy, isn’t it? My homeschooled kids are involved in a lot of extracurricular activities, and I’m constantly signing releases for them to participate in scouting, various sports, youth group activities, etc. I’ve even had to sign releases several times for my children to be photographed at events.
We need parental permission for photographs to be taken, but it’s perfectly okay for invasive medical exams to be given and dangerous drugs to be administered without even notifying the parents? Bizarre.
“We need parental permission for photographs to be taken, but it’s perfectly okay for invasive medical exams to be given and dangerous drugs to be administered without even notifying the parents? Bizarre.”
And what’s even more bizarre is that it has been established that the younger the girl is, the more harmful it is to pump her body full of hormones.
This is dangerous stuff.
While I have admired homeschoolers, I have never felt I was “up to the task” of doing it myself.
We are fortunate in our small rural district. The board, the administration, and much of the staff are comprised of reasonable people with traditional values. Most are practicing christians, and so far we have even gotten away with having real Christmas songs at the Christmas concert.
I cannot see something like this happening here, but if it did I would immediately pull my kids.
