And we the non-parents shouldn't have to pay for schools that we don't use or don't intend to use. And school taxes should be refunded or your property taxes reduced by the amount going to schools if your children are in private school or are homeschooled.
Once that change is made, the parents can do what they want with the schools. It's their money at that point, and no one else's, after all.
Or.....pay it forward. YOU benefit from your education, so pay it forward....for the next generation.
Democrat ex governor now candidate Terry McCuAliffe says parents shouldn't control what their children learn in school.
A school can teach little children perverted sexual material or that white people are evil and black people are saints. And parents can do absolutely nothing about it.
Parents shouldn't determine curriculum besides this is not a majority of parents generating this movement it's a few that are unhappy. The only changes I recall where involved parents was adding in advanced courses, other than that parents should not be determining curriculboards.um. Most text books and course outlines are determined at the state level not school.
This is a few unhappy parents, they don't get to determine teaching agenda, if they don't like it they have alternatives.
Like I said before, that argument only flies if the state is going to give the parents their money back.

That's not the way it works in civilized countries, you don't get a refund if you don't drive a car or fly out of an airport. If every one comprehensively wants to change society to a pay as you go system then fine otherwise you don't get to choose.
