Conservative parents said they’re looking to exit public schools after an anemic performance by right-leaning candidates in school board elections this week.

    Get the fuck out, then. I don’t like that their children are going to end up being the ones getting punished, but at least not everyone else’s kids are getting punished along with the children of these extremists.

      Going to disagree. I would rather they ruin every single PTO and School Board meeting instead of hurting their own children. My parents pulled the same shit on me and I no where got the education level I should have gotten.

            Exactly. It just means school board meetings will suck for the normal people, then after the open comments time, they can get the real work done.

            By holding them accountable and forcing the community to admit what happened to you did in fact happen and is wrong.

            Which will be vitally important for other abuse victims.

            Also, you were abused. Denial of access to education is abuse.

              Does anyone not know that religious people pull their children out for home “schooling” and/or send them to private religious schools that don’t teach much outside of religion? Like is this news to anyone on the planet earth?
