I don’t have one. I’m just saying that if it’s not the curriculum then it shouldn’t be taught. But if you want it to be taught then you need to change the curriculum, and if you want to do that, then you need the parents to be on board. So, my assumption is that the parents in that community are against this topic being taught to their kids. It doesn’t matter what the topic is. A teacher just choosing to do read books on topics that the parents may believe their kids are not ready for is wrong.
Did you read any required books in school? Did you parents have to fill out a form agreeing to those books? If not, then maybe “you need the parents to be on board” is a bullshit excuse.
You misunderstand me. I’m not saying that parents should be on the board. Although maybe some should? I don’t really care.
What I’m saying is that in the real world, I hope, the people have influence on what their government does. So, when the government does something, like add something to school curriculum, the people can be involved. That’s why we vote for things. That’s the parental influence on schools that I’m referring to.
