These are the same sort of parents who have a tantrum over Halloween because it probably has some element of pagan origins or used to be associated with interacting with spirits or the deceased.
You can't fix stupid when the people in question revere ignorance as a virtue.
Where, in my post did you find my opinion about the purpose of yoga? There is meditation involved, is there not? On my quest for enlightenment, I googled yoga. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yoga
Again, why yoga? Why not stretching cardio and team sports and murder ball!! I loved murder ball!!
Are there enough children who are quads in order to play murder ball? I doubt it. I have been on the sidelines during a couple of games and it is not for the faint of heart and I truly doubt that parents would allow their darlings to play quad rugby.
I don't know what school districts you all are living in, but every (public) school that I have sent my kids to and that I have subbed at says the pledge in the morning and puts ups trees every December.
Ok now breath in, hold it....hold it....goooood now slowly exhale and keep your eyes closed. Good now bring your arm slowly around to the other side, really feel the stretch. Gooood do you feel that....ok now inhale again slowly and deeply.....ok now we will summon the dark lord satan who will rule the universe, Katy would you slaughter the virgin sacrifice for us? Goooood.
