It's not a luxury, it's a sacrifice.

I'm not against education, much less higher education. I'm against government schooling.

Nowhere in this article does it say the school fired her because of her sexuality. SHE said she got fired because of her sexuality.

I don't buy for one minute that a topic on being "binary", or "gay" would be initiated by 4-5 year olds. And that nonsense that a teacher would have to explain, because the students wanted to discuss her personal life is just that, nonsense.


But no surprise these stories about poor victim LGBT teachers are starting to make their way out from under their rocks, has the find hand of the Left all over it.
The story was broadcast on WEAR-TV which is an ABC affiliate, ABC of course is owned by Disney.
Coincidence?

From what my kids tell me (ages 12 and 10) it's gotten absolutely ridiculous. Apparently... girls are now wearing cat ears to school, calling themselves "furries" and they bark and make animal noises lol... And... this is allowed. These kids are somehow identifying with... animals, I guess?

Either you are lying or your children are lying. This is fiction, created by a certain fake media source in Wisconsin, so as to spread outrage over sexual deviancy in schools that doesn't actually exist.

That video was spread, and caught on in a couple of other areas that chose to mimic the video with their own version of it.

It's not happening anywhere in the country. Disruptions aren't permitted in classrooms, children aren't supported in schools if they "identify" as cats. It just flat out isn't happening.

What people who love to bash the schools and promote charters and private schools fail to understand is that those ones appear better because they do not have to follow the ridiculous requirements that the FLORIDA GOP controlled government have created here. The teachers and admins have to dance around every restriction and topic that the government decides to make a big deal every couple years. The amount of record keeping, paperwork, etc that is needed on a daily basis is insane. My wife, who is a teacher, spends hours every day(unpaid) just trying to stay in compliance in order to keep her "highly effective" rating.

Florida has the reputation among teachers in this country as having the most overbearing state and local regulations and requirements... combined with the most dysfunctional administrations because of it.

Charter and Private schools have the right to do whatever they want, accept whatever students they want, kick kids out for any reason they want, etc. Public schools do not have that luxury.

What is wrong with you? Calling my kids liars?

It's a thing. It's not fiction. It stems originally from anime.

And... I have seen it when picking them up from school.

Please don't call my kids liars. lol. You are sick.

I never said anything about them getting "special treatment," which is what that article is about. I said people wear cat ears and make animal noises. That is fact. And it's allowed.
