Not all of us are sheeple—just overruled by the majority. I removed both my teens from public school last year. One went to private and one homeschooled. I’m in a blue state. The private school is still masked, but at least they reopened and offer a conservative non-propaganda curriculum. The homeschooled student is now in public college, which also at least reopened but is still masked. Very sad. It’s not so much that we are “sheeple” but that some blue states and cities and many colleges are mandating masking and vaccines or students will be removed from those schools. State and local recall attempts have failed. I’m sad to report that the teachers unions hold all the cards, even over private schools, in some areas.
You don’t sound like sheeple. You did the right thing.
But I don’t agree that the teacher unions hold all the cards, and even if they do, all a parent has to do is quit playing cards with them. As you did.
