Florida teachers have to hide books!

Why? That is stupid.

Do you really want me, a conservative, republican white heterosexual male, telling that lesbian couple to stop discussing “gender affirmation” therapy with their 12 year old adopted son?


So you're OK with inexperienced, uneducated, and untrained people telling you how to do your job?

I don’t know what you mean by “inexperienced”. By the time their kids get to me, most of these parents have at least 15 years of experience with raising their kids. When they speak, I listen.

Some of the best advice I ever received was from a blue collar worker who wanted his son to go to college. He told me to “be tough on him, he’s just acting stupid”.

Rigor and relevance. Two important ingredients in education.

so it's in everybody's best interest to work with the teacher to make it the best experience possible.

Wouldn't the teacher be the one to know what the best experience possible is, since they're the ones doing the teaching and the kids are the ones doing the learning?

Where do the parents fit in there?

Chances are your parents interacted with your teachers and your schools

Yeah, parent-teacher conferences...that's it.

What happens in those conferences?

Do the parents get to evaluate the teacher, or has the teacher evaluated the student already and then tells the parents what they've evaluated?

This is why I don't believe you when you say you're a teacher, and why you won't provide anyone with any detailed info that can confirm it.

and just for your information parents have always been involved with the schools.

Not really, no.

Not beyond the bake sale or canned food drive. Maybe a booster club, but that's it.

Parents and teachers do not collaborate on curriculum because parents don't know anything about that.

You're doing it anyway.

Even if I didn't want you to do that, you're still going to do it because you believe you're entitled to it.

It's none of your fucking business, unless you want that lesbian couple to start picking apart your relationships.

Something tells me that you would have a pretty big problem with that.

You might say you have 15 years experience raising -not educating- your kid, but if you kid turns out to be shitty, then what does that say about your "experience"?

Experience isn't a benefit if it's all bad.

You wouldn't hire a coach who has 15 years experience but a losing record over those 15 years, would you?

OK, but this doesn't prove that parents should be involved in their kids' education beyond PTA meetings and parent-teacher conferences (which are one-sided affairs).

Why do you think they’re one-sided affairs? When you’re discussing an academic problem with a parent, you flat out NEED input from the parent’s perspective to accurately evaluate the problem. Why else would you even bother?

You intrinsically linked your point to your credentials, you fucking numbskull.

You said "I am a teacher" and because you're a teacher, you think this.

This is why I don't believe you when you say you are a teacher.

I don’t care if you don’t believe me. It’s irrelevant. When I make a point, just insert a theoretical teacher and counter the point.

Ron DeSantis pushes permanent Florida sales-tax exemption for gas stoves

He's a candidate in search of a problem that *only he can fix.*

Ron DeSantis, the governor of Florida and a likely 2024 candidate for president, delivered on an earlier promise Wednesday when he said new gas stoves — in fact, all gas appliances — should be exempt from his state’s sales tax.

DeSantis rolled out the first budget of his second term, and among the proposed breaks for taxpayers is a $7 million permanent exemption on appliances fueled by combustible gas, such as natural gas NG00, -0.37%, propane, butane, liquefied petroleum gas and syngas.
