Sounds simple papa, when YOU don't have to do as you suggest.

Why should some one go through what you suggest because of stupidity ?

Odd you say that.
Baby Girl was pulled from public school in the 3rd grade and never returned during her Primary and Secondary years.
You on the other hand want to same folks you bitch about to yield to your will.
You do this by reducing the monies the school gets by reducing the number of students.

Yes going public draws attention to the problem but it also gains support for the agenda.
Change the channel if you don't like what you see and stop yelling at the TV.

So you don't actually have an opinion on the banning of "Best friends", so just change the channel, nobody is forcing you to reply in any threads.

As far as "yelling at the TV", I don't, but it does sound like something you would do to alleviate your frustration with people who actually have an opinon on a subject.

And as far as taking one child out of a public school, to change ANYTHING, nothing other than than the cost to parents ?

My opinion is you can't fix stupid.

If this is the schools policy change will not occur before it already causes damage.
So why put up with it?

As far as the cost goes if that is the only factor you consider God help the Children.

Taking ONE child out that school to reduce funding, as you suggested as a remedy, would not correct anything.

Lead by example not words.
The question becomes are you more concerned with being heard or your child.
So far you indicate you would allow your child to deal with this while you complain.

I on the other hand act in what I see as the best interest of my child first.

You my friend view yourself as a social warrior.
I am just a father.

And you call me a social warrior ?

The question was, not what anybody should do, including taking every kid out of public schools when you see something you don't like, but whether or not this was proper.

By your way of thinking, one should only act if something directly effects you, maybe that's the problem today, if it doesn't effect you, who gives a shit.

 

[Jasper]

Such a minor issue!
Do people really think this rule will damage the child?

 

[peace]

schools are like a revolving door for every child....they come and go....problems/conflicts will always be around. Yet schools will always be around....

 

[Dota]

I simply give up trying to understand.

 

[ROBERTSON]

Makes them feel good

Makes them feel good

I simply give up trying to understand.

People on power trips in places of power, where the shouldn't be in the 1st place, making asinine decisions to bolster their fragile egos.
