RayFinkle Posted April 20, 2006 Share Posted April 20, 2006 These stories aren't even in the same ball park. The teacher from the second story needs to be canned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr. Fong Posted April 20, 2006 Share Posted April 20, 2006 First of all I am for gay marriage and find it ridiculous to expose children that age to a discussion of homosexuality. It's a parent's job at that point. The second story is a case of a teacher with good intentions not thinking through the situation clearly. The abortion issue is one that is constantly being discussed in our country and as such it IS an issue of interest for government/social studies/civics classes, but it is not age appropriate. 4th grade students are not sophisticated enough in their understanding of the world to form any kind of mature debate on the issue. Unless of course the exercise was simply meant to be a "rah-rah abortion is bad" dialog. In which case I'm sure mission accomplished. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IDBillzFan Posted April 20, 2006 Share Posted April 20, 2006 Apparently I'm the only one who is shocked...that's right, shocked...that a book about two men getting married is called "Kings and Kings." The least they could do is call it "Queens and Queens." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
