What gets me is the fact that there have always been gay teachers. It was never a problem until somebody decided that it needed to be flaunted, taught, and encouraged.
Government schools are evil.
ping to the list
Homeshool, Homeschool, Homeschool.......
This is easy. If every family that can take its children out of government schools and educate them at home, would, the school districts would come crawling for ways to attract the children (and the federal funds that go with them) back.
BTTT!
Go Parker go!
Bump.
I must have missed something; why is Mr. Parker in jail?
Another piece on the David Parker/Massachusetts story, and Philadelphia, PA, is mentioned, too.
This ping list is for the "other" articles of interest to homeschoolers about education and public school. If you want on/off this list, please freepmail me. The main Homeschool Ping List by DaveLoneRanger handles the homeschool-specific articles.
The more I read about Mr. Parker, the less I support what he is doing.
It's obvious to even the most casual observer that Mr. Parker's child is in a hostile environment. Your primary responsibility as a parent is to raise and protect your child. It is not to engage in political grandstanding, nor is it to use your child as a sacrificial lamb. The child has no choice in this matter. This isn't an adult that's being forced to stand his ground, it's a child of 6 or 7 years.
This government school is beyond repair.
