It’s my take that part of this woman’s agenda, is the idea that men screwed up this nation from it’s founding to the present.
Despite it’s faults, this is an amazing nation. At it’s core, it’s founding documents are second to none.
In part, the United States has helped immeasurably to free up humans around the planet.
Even people living in Communist China have a better life today because of the United States and it’s citizens. The people of Russia do as well. Reagan put in policies and applied pressure that resulting in the U.S.S.R. going under.
Eastern Europe and parts of Asia were freed from that beast.
Yes Ms. Teacher, slavery was abolished 152 years ago. People of all races come to the U.S., are treated decently, and can associate with and marry whoever they find a connection with. Why? Because MEN stood up and put and end to it.
Our MEN have fought and died since the nation’s creation, and they did it in part for you.
You are there in a nice school, with a good job, given lots of responsibility. And this is what you have chosen to do with it.
Sad. No, more accurately, vile.
You should be kicked out on your ass, and be caused to think about what you have done, until you can figure it out for yourself.
Not holding my breath on either count.
Those poor kids, being exposed to the TOXIC you.
Well said, D1.
It wouldn’t surprise me in the least if this teacher is from the PC snowflake mold that looks for any perceived affront because of gender, white privilege, etc.
She should not be teaching our children.
Ping.
So lying is okay, as long as it’s done so poorly that a fourth grader can figure out that it’s a lie?
Many public schools and colleges are now arguably anti-family value indoctrination centers, activist administration and faculty members now indoctrinating students with politically correct ideologies that many parents disagree with, the pro-LGBT agenda for example.
So it’s great for parents that the Founding States provided constitutional-level protection that they can use to make sure that their voices are heard concerning what their children are being taught if local and state, school and government activist officials ignore them.
The main challenge now is that parents and other patriots need to make sure that there are plenty of Trump-supporting patriot candidates on the 2018 primary ballots so that they can send these candidates to DC on election day.
Then, in addition to citizens being able to rely on Congress to use its 14th Amendment power to stop activist states from abridging constitutionally enumerated rights, parents would also have a forgotten option regarding public schooling.
More specifically, parents would also be able to rely on Congress to not only make it easier for them to have schools teach their children things like traditional family values, but also the federal government’s constitutionally limited powers for example, as the Founding states hand intended for those powers to be understood.
Insights welcome.
I am glad someone taught this idiot about context.
Back in 1776 the language did not assume that all men were evil. The term “man/men” meant all people.
If you look at the meaning of the word “man” in a digital edition of the 1755 dictionary by Samuel Johnson, you will find both meanings (males and human beings) listed, among others.
There is no reason to change the word, other than political correctness.
Bump!
This ping list is for the other articles of interest to homeschoolers about education and public school. This can occasionally be a fairly high volume list. Articles pinged to the Another Reason to Homeschool List will be given the keyword of ARTH. (If I remember. If I forget, please feel free to add it yourself)
The main Homeschool Ping List handles the homeschool-specific articles. I hold both the Homeschool Ping List and the Another Reason to Homeschool Ping list. Please freepmail me to let me know if you would like to be added to or removed from either list, or both.
Amen to that!
I made my 7th-grade students recite from memory, the Declaration of Independence from “When in the course...” to “...deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed.” Of course they hated it, but it was funny. Some kids who weren’t good students aced it on the first try. First try, they could get a 100, second an 85, third try a 70. The best part was that nearly all of them got through it, something that most believed was impossible when they first heard the assignment.
Yep, I can’t remember the grade I was in but it was the early ‘50s that we had to recite the Declaration of Independence from memory also.
I believe it was a common practice then, and still should be.
