    one of the man benefits of public education are having the kids taught by people who actually know what they are teaching, rather than random parents who think they know. yeah, its not perfect, but parents generally make worse teachers than, ya know, trained teachers.

    its classic micromanagement of the kid. let go

      Conservatives believe that their children are their property. Or a close analog thereof.

      So you teaching their kid something they don’t want the kid to know is treated like you’re damaging “their stuff”.

      Conservatives are all about protecting property, even when said property is actually a person who might not want their “protection”.

      I’m very pro public schools. I’m only saying that parents must have authority over schools when it comes to their kids.

            You mean what you say, but don’t understand it. So you contradict yourself.

            Two things can be true. Reading sure is tough!
