@elbowspeak we’ve been happy with our kids’ school. there’s a bit of a don’t-ask, don’t-tell aspect to the hot button issues. they just had their scholastic school fair. i might have asked whether the "Share Every Story, Celebrate Every Voice" collection was included. i decided not to. i know the teachers are doing their best in spite of the bs from the state level. putting them or the school in a position of having to defend what they don’t want to would do the kids little good.

@elbowspeak i haven’t seen the kid getting taught Prager U material or stuff like that yet. (he’s only in fourth grade.) i don’t worry about that, though. he thinks for himself and i think is likely to recognize and roll his eyes at indoctrination, and develop his own take on the underlying issues.
