Question 1

When choosing a sperm, donor would David Crosby be your first choice?

( I’ve been laughing at this one for years )

At the rate this is going on today, I would have thought that this was a 4th grade question! Heck, the 6th grade usually hand out condoms.

If you talked to a random child in a public park the way teachers talk to their students these days with impunity, you’d risk being beat up by an angry parent and/or arrested for lewd conduct and inappropriate behavior around a minor.

I believe they want students to fail. The provocative question is meant to derail the students. Their young minds will lose focus and mistakes will be made. Failure equals more tests, more “solutions” and definitely more $$$$.

If schools were a choice this wouldn’t happen. No parent wishes their kid would become a sex focused teen. We’ve turned our kids over to government experts. What did we expect?
