Forces women - as the lower paid parent - out of the workforce, and hey, maybe she'll get bored enough to pop out the mailman's kid to keep the slave force going.
This and all the other Republican attacks on education are just to end public schools. They don't see education as a right or a civic virtue >

They see poor kids only value as working in the factories. >

That's really unfair and inaccurate. 
They can also work in mines and plantations. >

You're right. Then, the rest will be free prison labor. >

The people send their 5 year old in confederate flag t shirts are going to sue teachers for wearing rainbow ear rings >

And teaching parts of history and science that they don't like >

Cool, can I counter sue the dumb parents for fucking with our public school system? >

How about can a teacher press charges against delinquent kids who assault them on a daily basis? >

Exactly! You raise a menace to society. Can you then be sued? If not, sit down. >

Both teachers and police are public employees, why one has qualified immunity, while teachers can be sued? >

One uses authority and force to protect capital and the other teaches critical thought that challenges capital.
​
Is it really surprising a capitalist nation favors one over the other? >

When I first read that I thought it said "one uses authority and force to protect the capitol" 😂 >

If these backward states think it's hard to hire enough teachers to staff a school now, wait and see what it will be like if they implement a law like this. >

That’s the point. Make schools fail, give the funds to Christian private schools, which the Supreme Court just found are eligible to receive taxes if they’re the only school in the area. >

We are becoming a half fundamentalist Christian state. >

Nuh huh. We are already a half fundamentalist Christian state. We are now going full hog. Some states at least are 20 year away from becoming fully Christian-only territories. >

Is it any wonder why it’s so hard to find quality educators in this country? Let’s pay these people an unlivable salary, open them to lawsuits for doing their job, and put a gun in their hands instead of securing the school. The GOP game plan is to keep kids stupid so they can get votes based on doing absolutely nothing. >

Some animals are more equal than others, y'know. >

Right-wing education fascism will only snowball into a more ignorant America. >

Ace move, Pilkington ! >


"It will make it more clear to parents what is being taught in our public schools and give our teachers the confidence to teach what really what parents expect to be taught in our schools,"

Yes. The peanut gallery should teach the children. Get outta here with that. You wanna be a teacher go to school and become a teacher. Stop wasting peoples time with this dumbass culture war shit. >

….keep in mind. These are the same parents who insisted their kids had to return to school ASAP in 2020-2021 because “how am I suppose to teach my kid? They need to be in school to learn”…. So they already failed at being a teacher. >

My daughter quit teaching after 2 years because of this type of BS. She told me that you are either a teacher under 25 or a teacher over 50 and as soon as the older teachers make it to retirement, the whole system will crash. Now, of course, there are teachers in between 25-50, but they are either the most dedicated, have no other job options, or incompetent. >

Oh noes!  My particular worldview isn’t celebrated and disseminated in public education!  
Just homeschool your weird kids, gawwwd >

that's too much and expect other to do the work for them. >

Parents trying to escape responsibility for raising their kids. As a therapist this pisses me off. >

Why all the hopelessness on the left? We aren't laying down letting this bullshit happen. Vote at the state level and keep the GOP out of power >

If I can give you an award for saying that than I WOULD. >

How about you just teach your kids yourself. Why did you send them to school? >

Free babysitting >

How long before a parent sues because their kid is failing math and it's causing them emotional distress? You know damn well it's coming. What about if their kid isn't starting on the football team? What's the line? When I was growing up if the parents didn't like the curriculum they could homeschool, that was the option, period. Kind of like if you don't like what I made for dinner cook your own. >

This is the way you get a mass exodus of qualified people from the public school system. >

Which is exactly what they want. >

It’s so crazy to me that you can sue teachers for teaching what parents may not like but can’t sue cops for killing innocent ppl! (I’m referring to qualified immunity). >

Odd how the people who were for tort reform not long ago, are the snowflakes running to their lawyer at the drop of a hat. >

It would also make schools increasingly more shitty. Good teachers would quit en masse because they don’t want to go to work every day with the threat of legal action from little Cletus’ parents who think the very hungry caterpillar is trans just because Fox News told them so. >

They’ll just keep quitting. Over half of our elementary school teachers quit over the summer. >

Yup. I and half my fellow teachers left school in one semester. >

How about a childrens bill of rights? So that they are not considered the property of parents or schools? No? Too radical?! >

Yes I know about the UN Charter of childrens rights. I also know that the US hasn't signed it. So there is, in fact, no childrens bill of rights in the US. >

0 states have a law against corporal punishment in the US, as far as I can tell. Only 6 states have banned child marriage in the U.S. 
​
Children's rights in America have no protection. >

The Christian Republican Right are willing to do anything to get the separation of church and state removed. The new Crusades exists. >

Small Government, Republicans are such frauds. >

This is so stupid, our country is soo up its own ass! >

This is so stupid.
You want to know what kids who don't know shit aren't being held back grades anymore? Parents sued.
Want to know why 'Ebonics' was a thing in the 1980's? Parents sued the school to get their illiterate kids out of compulsory english education, so the school district in Oakland invented a language, pretended the kids spoke it, and forced them into English as a Second Language courses as a work-around to get those kids the help they needed (and of course it backfired spectacularly).
My mom was a lawyer for a school district for years, and she was full of stories of parents suing over completely asinine things, from "too much homework" to "my kid doesn't need to learn to read because I can't read" to "you should teach jesus in the classroom" to "you have to teach 'the theory of creationism' alongside 'the theory of evolution.'" >

Yup. For so long, education has been ruined by America. As a teacher, I've had cuts to my salary because kids didn't meet "anticipated standards" even though they score 8 points higher on a standardized test. I have seen parents state that they were going to sue the school because we used online platforms that they didn't understand, and they called us a "ghetto school" for failing their student when all the material was automated and placed online for them to observe. They didn't have internet at home, and it was somehow our fault their student failed the class, even though they could have gone at any time to internet cafés or libraries to work on school for free?
​
The past few years, we were told we couldn't fail any students even if they didn't do any work in class. I had students who turned in 1 assignment all year, and they were told they would just pass through anyway. When they figured that out, they just stopped listening and fights broke out daily in my school. I at that point just stopped giving a crap, and I realized it was time to leave. I'm so sick of how education has become so hollowed out in America. It's disgusting. >

I am a therapist who works in schools and I’m shocked by the leniency with homework and testing. Teachers do not have control over what is going on at home and if parents are encouraging learning yet parents want to blame the school and teachers for their inadequacies. I deal with parents a lot and it pains me to say that many don’t seem to understand anything about child development. >

Human rights beat parents rights. Use that as a slogan. >

It looks like Nebraska is trying to be the Florida of the Midwest. Without the beaches and palm trees. >

No, the Florida of the midwest is Missouri. Hard to steal that crown. >

They at least get weed now. Nebraska in a race to the bottom. Just ask about some of the other proposed bills... >

but but, what about the children?!?!?!? oh look, whats behind the hood of 'parents rights"? States Rights!!!! Woohoo!!! fuck these people. >

Parents' rights is only for evangelical Christian parents. If an affirming parent of a trans child sticks up for their child, the Christian nationalists like Abbott and Desantis will try to arrest them and put the kids in foster care or conversion therapy. >

They should strike and see how quickly the state's economy falls apart without schools providing child care. >

If anyone thinks there will be any new teachers in 5 years… they’re nuts… >

One of these Q nuts that just got elected to the school board here in NE, who railed at every meeting for the last 2 years about this parental rights crap, actually unironically asked during the staffing update during her first meeting "why can't we find more teachers?" I about lost my shit watching that >

I hope everyone laughed in his stupid face… >

Educated people are hard to herd. >

As if teachers didn’t have enough to worry about… >

They did something similar in Florida under Lord Governor Cardinal Desantis >

Get ready for public education costs to skyrocket as schools will suddenly need "practice insurance." >

They’re all going to be pissed when they have to take care of their children during the day time.  Hard enough getting people to become teachers as it is, I’m sure this will help.  Fools. >

watch they'll carve out private religious schools as untouchable in this >

Yet another reason we have to get involved in state and local politics, including never missing a chance to vote. The R’s have been looking to attack public education forever. Let’s not let ‘em succeed by driving teachers out! >

With this right, schools and unions will have to hire more lawyers, and lawyers get paid more than teachers. Less money going to educating. We’ve seen this with doctors, lots of suing, their prices and overall healthcare costs rise. Also, the thought that a public school teacher who teachers to 30 kids needs to customize their lessons for each kid is ridiculous. >

Yup. Schools will eventually have to shut down, like they are in my state due to litigation costs. It's really going to be a bunch of kids with no school. >

Let's improve the education system and raise competent adults before we give them power they absolutely should have >

And then everyone will be homeschooling their kids as every teacher quits.
