Super hard to believe this poll......wonder where/who was polled. If true, not sure that gulf can ever be mended. Hello Balkanization, red for red and blue for blue.

 

[Corndog2021]

That says it all- but I trust no poll unless it says Trafalgar ......or syskatine- just sayin

73% of Democrats. Key element of the poll. So the indoctrinated believe that the indoctrinators should have the power to indoctrinate. Big surprise is that 27% of Dems didn't agree. I guarantee you that the same question to Republicans won't have a 73-27 split.

Imagine Republican parents having control over kids’ curriculum and tell me that’s not the epitome of indoctrination lol

Ok...that's not the epitome of indoctrination.

FYI you are trying to hard to use big words.

Here's your problem. You can't have the crazies in one organization controlling the curriculum while the crazies on the other extreme not having a say. How about we use best in class information to determine what is taught in schools? Made up of a group of people who have studied what works and doesn't work combined with parents committee who has input as well.

Honestly WTF is wrong with you....why does it have to be either extreme? How about schools get back into the business of teaching kids to better themselves, think critically, prepare them for life beyond and quit trying to be a political juggernaut. Geez, whomever is in charge now sucks! You have kids who barely can read 5 grades below their grade, can't do math and so on. Oh and you shit head liberals conveniently look past the fact that the kids who suffer the worst and are also at the greatest risk.....who are they??? Predominantly poor, inner-city kids who have virtually no hope if they can't get an education to get the hell out of the crap holes they live in.

I want kids to learn and become productive tax paying citizens......not wards of the welfare state and stuck in a proverbial life of hopelessness and despair. Why does that have to be any part of a political consideration?

Where does big oil and gas teaching kids all the good about the industry via “Petro Pete” or the ad nauseum religious indoctrination by so-called Christians fall in here for you???

Parents having a broad say in kids’ curriculums is problematic, period.🤷‍♂️

I’m sorry I and others are able to converse while hovering over your kindergarten reading level.

Nope

Nope

It is and you know it lol

Nope. No more so than the crazies that promote agenda's outside of the curriculum that needs to be taught.

What is wrong with the education system teaching the basics and keeping politics out of it?

 

[ClintonDavidScott]

What is wrong with the education system teaching the basics and keeping politics out of it?

Because one side doesn’t get to inject politics into it and not expect the other side to as well.

 

[100TonsofOrangeFury]

Why don't you share with us all the times you were inappropriately touched by right wing politics as a young school child?

Could be cathartic.

 

[Alpha Woke]

Because one side doesn’t get to inject politics into it and not expect the other side to as well.

Why do you care?

No offense, but you have to clear a few hurdles before this is an issue for you.

 

[2012Bearcat]

Like I said keep politics out of it.

 

[Tulsaaggieson]

And you still can't communicate effectively. Bet I can read at a higher level than you can. I can also communicate better than you. Mabey someday you will realize the two are not the same.

 

[JimmyBob]

Mabey someday you will realize the two are not the same.

Usual reminder: don't hold your breath.

Maybe you should reread the poll question.

“Do you believe parents should have greater authority than teachers’ unions in directing the education policy in their local school districts?”

That's a pretty shitty poll question in my book. As I read it, it is asking who do you trust least the pedophile down the street or the rapist living next door. Leaving curriculum up to a parental free for all is utter foolishness. It would be only slightly less foolish to leave curriculum up to a union.

I suppose the Trafalgar group is more interested in selling their services than getting to real insights.

What’s the relevance to school curriculum here? Absolutely none? Got it lol

Oklahoma doesn’t have a bunch of regressive dumbasses on school boards, ToonTard. And now San Fran doesn't either. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Did you bother to read why the 3 dipshit regressives got recalled IN THE REGRESSIVE MECCA that is San Fran?

Given the its a Dem mayor that will appoint the replacements for the 3 school board members, I wouldn't go so far is to say they won't simply replace the current woke regressives with a new woke regressives.

You don't have the time for the answer.

On another note, my wife is an elementary librarian and had to six and watch a 6 year old pull books from the shelves and throw them. She wasn't/isn't allowed to touch/grab a student, just let him continue. This isn't a Conservative approach. However, the lib teachers are all in on what's being preached.

My son attends a private Christian school.

My daughter graduated from there. The academics were average to slightly better than average. The moral instruction was as important as the educational instruction for me. The school was more affordable than most.

My daughter is not in a major that is very intellectually strenuous.

However, there are lots of projects, busy work and memorization. She has had 3 straight quarter of 4.0s and is in an honor society. Maybe she learned how to educate herself and put in the work at the private school.

Would she have learned that in public? Maybe.

One thing though, she would never learn traditional Christian values in public school.

As a public school honor student from the 80s, I felt my education did NOT prepare me for college. I was not prepared for the work load or taught how to effectively study.

I guess from my perspective if my children are taught how to study, get an above average education and are taught traditional Christian values then I don't have to worry about teachers unions or the LGBTQ+ mafia and can be happy.
