Right wing propaganda in Ohio schools

Why can't people just be unbiased? Those kids would eventually be biased and think how perfect is it. :\ Yes those people should be fired, don't teach the kids biased crap, that's your opinion not fact.

SO is it okay for the left to teach their stuff? The left does it all the time. This is the first time I have ever heard of the right stuff being taught. And the left go ape on one occasion. The right has to put up with this crap all the time. Welcome to our world. I take this is an eye opener for the lefties. There is two sides of these types of issues, and the kids need to be exposed to both so they can study and decide and not be brained washed as the left is doing now. It is pretty bad that the only way the right can get anything in to these kids is to sneak into stuff like this. You want fare. The school needs to teach both sides. I.e the schools teach that we are causing global warming for many years, yet there are many experts who disagree.

It's the same the world over to a greater or lesser degree. The teacher has a powerful position and each person has a personal view that can be imprinted on receptive minds. I'm an engineer but I helped out at a girls high school teaching maths when they were desperate for a teacher. I swear it was more of an education to me than it was for the girls! I realised that if I was a fanatic I could turn the minds of those girls so easily. Quite frightening really.

Do you have a link or any actual evidence of this? As you know, I always post articles and videos of left wing indoctrination when I start such threads.

I'd really like to see an excerpt from that article. Never in all my years of schooling nor during the years my children have attended school have I ever seen any teaching that one could call slanted to the right. In fact, my daughter had to read and analyze Op-Ed pieces for her language arts class and the teacher required those articles to come from two specific publications - both very left-wing. Now, although I feel there is more to this article than you are letting on, you would certainly be right to contact the local school board and voice your complaints. It isn't that no political content should be studied. Content from both sides of an issue ought to be studied and the students asked to read and analyze. Teachers should teach children HOW to think, not WHAT to think. I tend to think you wouldn't have minded the political views if you had agreed with them. I wouldn't mind political views if they were presented equally and in context so that kids could see all sides.

You know what they say, teach them while they are young and impressionable." While I do not agree with this method of teaching. I am undecided if they should get fired. I thought the point of teaching kids was to have them form their own opinions. If you are forcing one point of view down their throat, then that is not them finding their own views of things. That is the teachers point of view, and it takes away from the kids uniqueness. Then what happens they go off to college or work in the real world and most of what they were taught turns out to be not true. You can end up breaking a kids spirit this way. That is why it is very important for the parents to teach them take everything with a grain of salt. The problem is many parents just do not care what is taught in schools these days.

I think that students should have a choice when it comes to school and they shouldn't be forced to believe in anyone's point-of-view because that's just ridiculous. Then again, it seems like everyone is trying to force their political point-of-view on everyone nowadays.
