oh knock it off. There are no crickets in Helena right now, and I don’t appreciate the fatalist viewpoint so let’s go for the facts. There will be another meeting August 10, progress was made, folks turned out and said what needed to be said, and FReepers need to quit with the pre-judging. How about some support? Even Sean Hannity offered it, and the wailing is not appropriate. Montana is not finished with this, and the superintendent of schools is a fool to push the agenda. Can you pray? If you were just being cynical, sorry. But I’m the grandparent, kids will be affected by this, and let up while we fix the system!

Big deal. Folks showed up to a meeting and had their say. So what? That’s not progress. That’s just feeling good about having your say. Let us know when something really changes for the good. THAT would be progress.

In the town we lived in at one time there was a sex ed in health curriculum issue that came up. People showed up to BOE meetings in droves for months, they brought in expert testimony to show how harmful this was going to be to the kids, the school superintendent advised the school board NOT to vote it in and you know what happened?

The board did it anyway. And come election time the following year, the same guys were voted back in again. It died without a whimper.

That cemented our decision to homeschool.

Nothing is going to change. You will not fix the system. And sadly, your kids will be affected by this.

Sending children into schools that teach this kind of stuff is child abuse, plain and simple.
