So you would be just fine with teachers doing any of the examples I gave, right?Scissors is not a political issue - this is.
Why not try and construct an analogy that at least makes sense.
It's only a political issue because you choose to make it political.
Tolerating black people is an issue. Should teachers not make kids aware of other races and try and make them respect each other? Should they reinforce racism simply because adults talk about this politically?
After all, those are only political if you make them so.
I don't know what examples you gave.
What if a teacher told students that homosexuality is wrong?
Again, should teachers be teaching intolerance?
We live in a society, were are society beings. However society has grown much larger than it used to be. People should be teaching tolerance.
People who are intolerant don't want teachers teaching tolerance.
Teachers should be teaching positive skills, not negative ones.
We teach tolerance of others but we also respect that they are children and don't need to learn about homosexuality at 4.
