Tell me again exactly what commandant is being broken here?

Commandant? I dunno, Col. Wilhelm Klink?

Semi-seriously: I could be a wise guy and suggest that she was inducing people to break number ten. But actually, she was acting in discord with several things that Jesus and his apostles said and wrote about fostering lust in ourselves and in others. Here is a good summation of those passages. Read 'em and weep learn.

Unless there is a clear violation of the law, I would respectively suggest the school go pound sand.

So why didn't Silvas do that instead of making herself (and her daughter) the main attraction in a media circus?

It should be against the law to willfully become an indentured servant simply by attempting to provide an education for your offspring.

Oh, brother...re-read what you wrote. "It should be against the law to willfully..." I don't even have to finish the sentence. It's nonsensical.

No one should have to sign away their rights to educate their family.

Get real. If she had sent her kid to public school, this wouldn't be an issue at all. Heck, in public school, a kindergarten teacher could BE a stripper, and no one would care. But Silvas claims she wanted her daughter to have a Christian education, and by signing that agreement, she said in effect that she agreed with the school's philosophy. She actually didn't, and that became obvious. So, now she can spend her sweaty neatly folded bills somewhere else.

The school is holding a child’s education hostage by demanding arbitrary behavior from a free and law abiding citizen and this practice should be halted.

Yeah! The school shouldn't be able to have its own standards! The school should be forced to serve any parent who coughs up the bucks, even if said parents are deleterious to the atmosphere of the classroom or the homes of the students, thus nullifying the effects of the education. It doesn't even matter that they are a private entity and have the legal right to decide whose children they will educate and whose they won't. YEAH!

What a great liberal you are!

1. Thanks for the link.

2. I think it is unfair to blame lusting thought of her customers on her. Must of the bible passages that you cited seem to imply that it is her fault that the customers lust after her. It's their sin.

3. Regardless, what she is doing is not in sync with traditional Christian teachings. She signed the form, the school has every right to kick her and her kid out.

4. She's a fox. The guy who left her must be an idiot.

Took you long enough, but you finally got around to the crux of the matter, money, this so-called school operates in a free society as a business and should be required to provide service under the law as any other business, or don't charge.
Yes, the school should be forced to serve any parent who cough ups the bucks and is not a known criminal, that is the law, and if nanny’s like you don't like it then I suggest you move to a country where religious law is the norm.
BTW is there any country where religious law works, maybe we should consider disfiguring this woman so she would no longer be attractive, you know the way they do it in other apparent Godly nations.

I know your kind of Christianity, you are the type who brings others to Christ tied to the back of your pick-up truck.
