Yknow, when I was a wee lad growing up in West Texas, public schools werent all that bad. We started our day off with the pledge of allegiance, said prayers during football games, actually studied our nations founding docs, sang patriotic songs, and we celebrated the true meaning of both Christmas and Easter.
In addition to that pro-American bliss, nearly everyone and their dog graduated. Its true. Dogs were actually graduating from school back then. I know. Weird, eh?
Indeed, out of our large graduating class there was only one drop out and that was my childhood buddy who left school to join the Banditos motorcycle gang. He had a tattoo before tats became hip and groovy, ubiquitous and virulently narcissistic. (Speaking of tattoos: Girls if youre going to get a cute butterfly inked into your shoulder, you must make the general public a promise that you will not gain 600lbs later in life and have that blue moth morph into a massive, faded condor that we all have to stare at. If thats too much to ask, then please cease to wear tube-tops so we dont have to gawk at that muted, colored vulture on your enormous back. Deal? Deal. Anyway, back to the good old days )
When our parents dumped us off at school, they werent riddled with fear that our schoolmarms were going to morph us into domestic terrorists who think Che Guevera is the bomb. Our folks also knew that sexed-up teachers wouldnt teach kinky weirdness to their twelve-year-olds. No, if their kids were going to learn about sex it would be done in the traditional way via their older brothers and their Playboy magazine stash in the alley behind the house.
Today, as far as public schools are concerned, its a veritable loaded-dice roll regarding how your kids will come out after spending eight hours a day with our educators. More than likely, Dad, unless youre Bill Ayers, Khalid Sheik Mohammed or Russell Brand, youre not going to be too pleased with what the public schools do with your kids noggins.
This week, a story surfaced about the father of a thirteen-year-old girl who got righteously ticked when his daughter showed him a pic of what the loons were lacing his dear daughters curriculum with. Check it out:
The father of a 13 year-old girl who was upset by a classroom poster that listed sex acts was shocked to hear that the poster is part of her schools health and science curriculum.
As local Fox News affiliate in Kansas, fox4kc.com, reported Tuesday, Mark Ellis said his daughter, a student at Hocker Grove Middle school in the Shawnee Mission School District, was shocked by what she saw on a poster on a classroom wall in school. Ellis said his daughter took a picture of the poster and showed her parents.
Originally, Ellis assumed the poster to be a student prank, until he called the school and discovered it was part of the curriculum.
Why would you put it in front of 13 year-old students? He asked.
The poster, entitled, How Do People Express Their Sexual Feelings? lists sex acts such as: Oral Sex, Sexual Fantasy, Caressing, Anal Sex, Dancing, Hugging, Touching Each Others Genitals, Kissing, Grinding, and Masturbation.
Ellis said after being told by the school principal the poster was teaching material, he is now concerned about what his daughter is being taught in school.
Ive got two words for that poster being put out by a public school to 13-year-olds: they are holy and guacamole.
Man, when I was thirteen I had no real idea what sex was. I thought it consisted of my mom and dad wrestling with their shirts off. At least thats what it looked like when they didnt lock the door that one Friday night that, try as I may, Ill never forget.
Sure, as a young pubescent boy I was attracted to girls. But we did normal things back then to show our interest in the opposite sex like: pull the girls hair, or jump a tall ramp on our Huffy while they watched, or suck milk through straws shoved up our nostrils. Yknow something to show our prowess. It was cave man stuff.
Now, certainly the aforementioned wasnt pretty or too suave, but it never came into to our minds that if we wanted to show we had feelings for a fair lass we should do it via anal sex. But thats what is being taught at frickin Hocker Grove Middle School.
Good Lord, parents. You gotta take reins of your kids brains and bodies and rip them out of the hands of these bastions of banality, communism and overt sexualization.
Do it now, before its too late.
FR has changed a lot in the past decade.
I think a lot of it is brought on by frustration realizing the painful descent of the Republic into the cesspool of progressive elite control.
99%? That’s a little bit extreme. You might as well say 99.5%
And the people who worry about “socialization”-who wants their children socialized by a group of their age peers, a good many of whom will be conducive to negative “socialization”?
Yes, and thanks to directives from this administration, it’s about to get even worse.
Indeed.
This ping list is for the other articles of interest to homeschoolers about education and public school. This can occasionally be a fairly high volume list. Articles pinged to the Another Reason to Homeschool List will be given the keyword of ARTH. (If I remember. If I forget, please feel free to add it yourself)
The main Homeschool Ping List handles the homeschool-specific articles. I hold both the Homeschool Ping List and the Another Reason to Homeschool Ping list. Please freepmail me to let me know if you would like to be added to or removed from either list, or both.
Not all public schools are bad,..
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Yes, they are bad.
ALL government owned and run K-12 schools are godless in their philosophic worldview and curriculum ( by law.) The children who attend must learn to think and reason godlessly just to cooperate while in the godless classroom. That is more than bad. It is EVIL!
ALL government owned and run K012 schools are single-payer socialist entitlements. The children risk learning that the same voting mob that gives them tuition free schooling is also powerful enough to give them **lots** of socialist “free” stuff. This, too, is not only bad, it is EVIL!
If the truth sucks, too bad!
Mine is in Beverly Vista public school and it seems fine so far to me.
YES OR NO? Or don’t you have the gonads to say it flat out?
Of course, you are completely free to stalk and bully me if you wish.
That’s what I thought.
AWESOME!
Let the stalking and bullying begin!
