POPSR-rated movie shown to 12 yr olds
Regardless of the content or movie, shouldn't teachers and schools be more judicious about what they show to 12 yr olds? Is any R-rated movie (or PG-13 for that matter) acceptable to be shown at school in a clasAnd people want to question "why" I homeschool and "if" I am competes of 12 yr olds? And without parental/guardian permission? The grandfather mentioned religion, but this is more than being against the family's religion. Public schools across the country are failing to educate children with the basic skills. Our own local high school got a "D". And my state has a wonderful track record for giving high school diplomas to teenagers who can't even read. How about focusing on the quality of education...and giving children the skills they need to become functional adults???? What good are recreational movies, cultural studies, diversity training, and sex ed (any type) if the graduates NEVER successfully integrate with society and become productive members of it?
