Someone who thinks the plural of 'kid' is 'kid's' clearly underestimates the societal value of a decent education

  • "Just" move to a country that isn't so collectively insane and misguided, idk. If people cross the Mediterranean on boats to seek shelter and a better life, why would it be so unthinkable for y'all?

    Homeschooling.

    Co-op schooling.

    There's charter schools, but that's really just a scam to get taxpayer money directly into special interests who have control over curriculum, admissions, staffing, and of course everything else that goes with running a for-profit business, often with little to no oversight, accountability, or transparency.

    Insane that conservatives, of all people, cherish them so much. But it makes sense. The conservative small government agenda is a smokescreen. All they care about is exerting direct control over people they don't like and protecting the ones they do.

    Homeschooling requires a parent to stay at home and play teacher instead of earning an income. That is the opposite of free.

    These christofascist types think a woman's place is in the home, not at work. Women should be barefoot, pregnant, and in the kitchen.

    And the women are totally okay with it because they've been conditioned since birth that when they become an adult the most important thing they can do is be a quiet little obedient baby factory for their husband.

    How much do they need to teach, themselves, anyway? All the important stuff is taught at Sunday School. Take the kids to the zoo a couple of times a year. Boom, homeschooled. Not like anybody is checking.

    Remember, good Christian women don't go to college to get a good job. They go because they weren't pregnant/married by 18. Without a good job, and with a perpetual series of babies, SAHM-ing is cheaper than daycare.

    I thought about home schooling as well but I'd argue that it's not free as the parents need to at least spent some time "teaching" the child?
