"I teach physically handicapped children," she notes; "my kids look different from everyone else in very obvious ways, and kids like mine are much more likely to get bullied and harassed at school."
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Is it any wonder that children act like extras for the "Lord of the Flies" movie?

Institutionalizing children for their education is an abnormal social situation for children. In 150,000 years of human existence segregating children by age, and herding them about like cattle to the sound of Pavlov's bells, never existed. If resurrected today, our human ancestors would be blinking in amazement at what we do to children.

She says the NEA has no business encouraging students to adopt a homosexual identity, and the organization needs to recognize that all students are equally deserving of a safe learning environment.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Sorry, but down on the Leftist/Marxist Animal Farm, gays get to sleep in the farmer's house, and politically unfavored groups such as Christians get to sleep in the barn.

All schools should be private. Take the kids out of the public schools.

In it, the homosexual activist advocates teachers helping to combat the problem of harassment faced by GLBT students -- by working "to create a classroom culture of respect and acceptance from day one."

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Day one? Huh?

Translation of Leftist/Marxist newspeak: Indoctrinating children in the finer points of homosexuality starting with with first day of pre-school.

Just an added not, it is a fact the the highest numbers per school, of homosexuals are not students, they are the teachers.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

I am interested in learning more about this. Do you have any links?

This is exactly the difficulty. Everyone acknowledges the problems with the government school system in the abstract - but their schools are "different". And even if their schools have problems they can't deny, they have absurd excuses like your sister (as if a public school HS diploma gives anyone an advantage in getting into "good colleges" - good test scores, yes, but a public school diploma is just a piece of paper these days).

If people spent as much time finding ways to get their children out of the government's factories of ignorance and bad character as they do rationalizing their addiction to "Aid to Dependent Parents" the government school problem would soon be solved because they would be depopulated to the point of collapse. The system will never, ever allow itself to be reformed, and the politicians the system owns won't allow anything to threaten the system's perogatives and cash flow.

Someone commented above about how she was glad that the NEA couldn't force her into the union. This is indeed a good thing, but the NEA's influence is pervasive everywhere through its influence in ed schools, the textbook industry, etc. Every public school system is corrupted by the NEA's (and the AFT's and...and...there are lots of corrupt government ed special interest groups) influence - including in right to work states.

I haven't had time to investigate it, however if anyone else cares to assist in the search, they are certainly we;come to try. Sooooo much going on here right now, and I am trying to find it in between doing about 100 other things!

I have yet to check out parents rights websites and massresistance, which will be my next stop.

Considered" and walked away, eh? You're part of the problem.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Sine_nomine did exactly the right thing by choosing not to be a government school teacher.

The government schools can NOT be reformed. They are utterly unredeemable.

So...any teacher who agrees to participate in propping up government school dysfunction is part of the problem. Any teacher who continues to go to work every day, and turn the key to open these centers of ignorance is: stupid, greedy, or evil.

They are stupid if they think that supporting a price-fixed, monopoly, and compulsory system is amenable to change, or will meet the needs of children.

They are greedy if they are propping up the government school system that hurts children just to collect a pay check.

Or...they are evil. They are using government schools to push forward their own political, cultural, and religious agenda, and forcing this on innocent children.

Personally, I think communal showering is dehumanizing. Children are reflexively and universally reluctant to undress in front of strangers, even strangers of the same sex.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

We should start calling this what it is: Child abuse.

Hm...lets apply this principle to a private citizen. What if a parent were to invite a group of girls or boys over to their home for a party. What would happen if the parent encouraged, forced, cajoled, or manipulated these children into participating in a group shower? The SS ( state social workers) would soon be at that citizen's door.

So...If children would be uncomfortable and embarrassed if group showers were done privately, and this would be labeled abuse, then the same should apply to teachers and principals.

It is past time. Teachers and principals should be held to the EXACT same standards of safety and conduct as ordinary citizens.

I have skimmed a few, and while these two allude to it in many way, I didn't specifically fin the article I was looking for, that is I didn't see in in skimming these articles. They are a great read though, and right on target with the public school system and this thread, even if the exact statistics aren't in them. I will keep looking!

It's all good and well to stop bullying, but this is the wrong way to do it.

So, I guess phys ed is out,too? Next you throw out sports like football unless they build private showers for all on the team? Is taking a shower with members of your own sex so dehumanizing? Should we ban this? Should we require the military to build private showers in basic training and all barracks? What about those on a combat patrol for five plus days with no shower,no shave, no tooth brush, smelling real ripe, and; they just want to shower and shave and feel clean again. Do we legislate private showers for them, too?

I agree. I remember being bullied in school. Schools should try to stop bullying, not just for one special group, but for all students.
