This sign is, to me, clearly a pretty polite request. It is phrased as such.

It’s not the same type of situation as you are describing where some sort of legal force is being used to block access to a campus. That’s something quite different.

What some school in Texas is doing has little to do with what this school is doing.

I don’t believe parents should be barred from school campuses in general terms. But that isn’t what is happening in this particular case and acting as if the situations are equivalent or treating them as equivalent makes very little sense. You seem to be complaining about something entirely different than what is actually happening in the article that started this discussion - and while your complaints might very well be valid in some contexts, it doesn’t mean they are in others.

You’re right about the answers I’m giving. I can only entertain questions as how they relate to the person asking.

The whole beginning of this thread was based upon a school taking upon themselves to teach something other than what they are being paid to do. Their idea of the need for punishment, when by the description, indicates themselves as being judge, jury, and executioner on a topic they may not have the evidence for, is typical the liberal thinking the school systems have adopted for over 50 years. And I get my information from observations, and first hand experience from my mother who was teaching during WWII on a war time credential at 18, through my sister who will be retiring this year and teaches primary education, now in high school.

The real problem here is schools have lied to reach a goal. Example: here in Washington state they school systems shut up about a state plan to stop the money being earmarked for breakfasts. But what the actual bill was was for a predominant larger amount of funds being supplied without the earmarks. So the schools were getting more funds, and they could spend them any way they want. But the libs claimed it was to stop the meals. Bill failed, schools lost out on getting more funds.

The bureaucracy of the schools systems, using pieces like the NEA and local government, are so trying to reshape the education system, they are destroying it. They re so busy trying to teach their “morals” that they are failing in the efforts to teach core topics. According to the US Department of education, in a study done in 2013, there are, roughly, 32 million people out there that can’t read. Fewer than a third of college degree recipients are “proficient” in everyday literacy, U.S. study finds, and the rate has been falling since 2005.

Why don’t they stay in the classroom and out of my home? If they are failing their job this much, I don’t want them taking on mine with almost no knowledge of what they do. And in comparison to mine, their morals suck!

So where does it stop? Or with the info I already gave you, where does it continue? Let me raise my own. They need to stay out of it. It’s not their responsibility and don’t threaten me trying to keep mine.
