(Let me rewrite a bit of what she wrote to clarify her thinking.)
I want (the government to teach) them to learn in enriching and dynamic classrooms. I want (the government to raise) them to be healthy and well and free from fear. I want (the government to make) them to grow up to agree or disagree with me or with you (but not the government) and to have all the freedom and tools (that the government gives them, that) they need to express what they believe (as long as it does not go against what the government wants).
And no hateful thing that you say to me (or to totalitarian government) or about me (or totalitarian government) will ever change that I want those things for *your* children.
(Note she *didn’t* say *her* children. She said “your” children.)
This is the function of "Child Protective Services", to look for reasons to take people's children away, in the misguided notion that the government is better at raising your kid than you are. Then they might give your kids to some foster parents, who they think will be better at it than you.
It won't be long before government categorizes teaching your children that there is a heaven and a hell, and that the kids must be good and not sin, as "child abuse", and take your kids away if you send them to Sunday school.
This dumb bimbo is walking back her comments. Big surprise. She must have realized my kids are as big believers in the 2nd amendment as I am!
The teacher tips her hand to reveal her Union Mentality: Work is to be sloughed off on somebody else. She goes on to "clarify," but if she had a brain she would not have written this remark in the first place.
I assume you agree there are some "parents" who are indeed worse than any possible alternative.
The only such history I'm aware of is slave state laws prohibiting the education of slave children at all.
America never "seized" the children of black slaves, though it did permit private property rights to be used to allow families to be sold away from each other.
