Remember when they taught reading, writing, and arithmetic?

Isn’t that a lesson on the consequences of irresponsible behavior?

The same people who want this also shout about how more money is needed form the schools as we are falling behind the world.
That just shows how delusional these people are and it also shows no matter how many times or facts are given to these people they want to ignore it.

Jeb Bush and John Kasich approve of Common Core and want more of it.

Surprised this wasn’t an assignment on “rape culture”.

I love the scenario the assignment gives. “You go upstairs”. Where exactly are you supposed to be? In high school, we had sex at home. Not at some public service announcement party house with preconfigured hook up rooms that were “upstairs”. The people who create this crap are clueless. The kids see right through it and aren’t stupid.

We homeschool and I am often shocked and outraged by what is taught in public schools. This, however, isn’t as shocking or outrageous as other stories. I have an issue with drinking and one night stands presented as normal behavior, but at least they showed the very real and permanent consequence of that choice.

Asking fourth graders about liquor, homework assignments about Allah, denigrating Christianity, liberal talking points, pro-amnesty propaganda, the list goes on and on of examples of teachers poisoning the minds of the children they are supposed to be protecting.

Don't fret too hard.

A communist teacher in grade school had me agreeing a very 'progressive' income tax was fair.

By 7th grade, I had thought it through and dismissed it as absurd.

The real Core of Common Core is the web of amoral critical thinking skills.

Sure they are. Every day.

And there are consequences.

Why is that fact a problem for you?

Isn’t that the point of consideration?

I don’t advocate drunk one night stands. I also know that most kids that walk through middle school hallways have not been brought up with any
moral guidelines. I would rather see them thinking about consequences instead of reacting to an outcome.

Is that a problem for you?

Not really. Would you like for it to be?
