This problem would be solved by not having public school. Then everybody could pay to put their kids in whatever school environment suited them.
Because of public school, we have liberty-choking restrictions on a vast majority of our population, in order to cater to various minority populations. Immunization is one area, “offensive” t-shirts are another, “inciteful” hair coloring is another, and bag lunches with peanuts are yet another.
I’m kind of surprised that no school has yet banned all non-kosher meat products, to “protect” the jewish and muslim minority population. Maybe they have. Or they could just ban all meat, so that some random vegan kid doesn’t have to deal with the possibility of getting meat mixed in with the vegetables.
Frankly, while disability is not itself funny, I do find it hilarious when I visit my kid’s high school, and there is a dedicated full-time employee, whose sole job it is to push around some poor mentally-challenged kid who clearly gets nothing out of any of the normal classes and activities at school. When they say the “average cost per kid” is $12,000, what they really mean is most normal kids costs a few thousand each, and then we spend millions meeting the requirements of the various disabilities laws, just so those few kids aren’t “left out”.
I think when it comes to diseases that are not generally life-threatening, I have to draw the line at forced vaccinations. There used to be a few “bubble kids” — I don;’t think the answer is to create a nationwide bubble so those kids don’t have to be in one alone.
My son attended a private school - where I live (Australia), that's quite common - a third of kids attend private schools which also receive some government funding (not as much as state schools, but still significant) in acknowledgement of the fact that parents who choose such schools are taxpayers and that educating children is good for society.
I don't believe in forced vaccinations. I do believe that if you decide not to get your kids vaccinated, you may have to accept that if there is a disease outbreak in a school, your child may have to stay home for a while for their own protection and that of other children. Freedom of choice doesn't mean freedom from consequences.
