If true, it's enough to make ya convert to Islam and call for Sharia Law...

 

[Mr. H.]

Maybe you could get some help here ...

Why do you hate children?

"The Schools are going nuts indoctrinating Children as Liberals.. We need to take them back."

The OP is a liar, of course.

Not only is there no evidence of 'indoctrination,' there is also no evidence this 'policy' is advocated by any 'liberal.'

Ah yes...playing dumb on the modern definition of liberal...today liberal means progressive/socialist/leftist...it does not mean "classical liberal"...conservatives are the "Classical Liberals"...playing dumb to change definitions to protect the agenda of modern liberals is not honest...

Classic example of indoctrination.

Teaching kids to be considerate rather than suspicious and hateful, I can see where conservatives might see this as a threat. Just like the attack on critical thinking and the teaching of blind patriotism occurring in many conservative districts.

We need to take them back

And who exactly are 'we.'

Public schools belong to everyone, they don't belong to any specific group of persons who have no right to 'take' anything 'back,' conservatives in particular, given their fear of, and hostility toward, education, facts, the truth, and critical thinking.

Who is teaching kids to be inconsiderate, suspicious and hateful.

Actually, we conservatives revere education...it is the left who places union jobs ahead of teaching children, the left who refuses to allow poor and middle class children to escape from horrible public schools...and how does this leftist lunacy of preventing the acknowledgement of gender differences apply to facts, the truth or critical thinking...are you a purple penguin...or a man or a woman...?

You really, really need help....

And just how "considerate" will these children be to the boy or girl who uses the term "boy" or "girl"...they will be treated with suspicion and hate for trying to use critical thinking against the "purple penguin Borg collective"...and then they will receive the same when they use critical thinking to combat the "Hate America" first, last and always curriculum they are being forced to accept...

 

[2aguy]

This is what the left will one day create...

If critical thinking is taught well no one is forced to accept anything on face value or jump to conclusions. If America is so great then there is nothing to hate. Seems trying to keep kids from being easily fooled is a hot button issue for some, I suspect they are the ones actually trying to do most of the fooling.

Give an example of your claim.

Conservatives.

The fact that conservatives give birth and raise new conservatives is a good example. Parents always impress their fears and prejudices on their kids, angry people have angry kids.

The fact you can't give an example, and you resort to insulting rhetorical bullshit is disappointing. Ignorant. Your hateful nasty bigotry proves you to be in desperate need of an education.

 

[SmedlyButler]

I ask everyone here, would any conservative call for something like this ?

Doubt it, and the great majority of liberals would have the same reaction as me, vote the school board that passed on this silly nonsense out of office as soon as possible - their lack of common sense is a danger to the district's kids.

Now as to what conservatives would call for. How about a science class that teaches that a mysterious sky-god created the heavens and earth in six days. Created a man out of dust, then took one of his ribs and created a woman out of that. And then a talking snake came along and....well I think you get my point.

How many people, even among liberals, support this nonsense? These kids are gonna grow up with their heads on backwards.

School Told to Call Kids Purple Penguins Because Boys and Girls Is Not Inclusive to Transgender National Review Online

oct 8 2014
A Nebraska school district has instructed its teachers to stop referring to students by “gendered expressions” such as “boys and girls,” and use “gender inclusive” ones such as “purple penguins” instead.

“Always ask yourself . . . ‘Will this configuration create a gendered space?’” the document says.

The instructions were part of a list called “12 steps on the way to gender inclusiveness” developed by Gender Spectrum, an organization that “provides education, training and support to help create a gender sensitive and inclusive environment for children of all ages.”

Other items on the list include asking all students about their preferred pronouns and decorating the classroom with “all genders welcome” door hangers.

If teachers still find it “necessary” to mention that genders exist at all, the document states, they must list them as “boy, girl, both or neither.

What the hell is wrong with Gender? Absolutely nothing. Instead of trying to ignore gender how about some acceptance? I'm still trying to figure out why NLT can show his hairy nipples in public with no problem and I can't show my delicate, pretty pink, smooth nipples without getting arrested.
