It’s actually painful to read the blather spewed out by our “educators”–so precious, so self-consciously virtue-signalling, you could just run screaming to the sidewalk. Here’s a sample of it from Canada.
Honestly, these wackos shouldn’t be allowed anywhere near children. What are parents thinking of, sending their kids to public schools? All the PC horse-**** starts in public school–sometimes as far back as kindergarten.
[Shudder, shudder….!]
Some people just can’t leave anything to the individual.
And I thought school was intolerable when I had to go there!
Grade School was very uncomfortable for me. The agenda was conformity, which far outweighed learning. They wanted everyone to get along, which makes sense, but would turn a blind eye to children whom caused many of the problems, in the name of being accepting and tolerant. Now, that was in the ‘60s, when the US was far more decent and civil than it is now.
I couldn’t even imagine what it is like, these days. I have been offered employment with school districts, and wouldn’t care to work in that environment.
You have my permission to shoot me if I ever express an intention to go back to subbing.
In my elementary school we were drilled with the alphabet, times table, reading, building vocabulary, public speaking, etc. – i.e. getting an education in the basics. All my teachers were nice and seemingly decent (at least while on school campus). Today is totally different – reading is an option – go figure.
