Look, you all know that I am very susceptible to getting emotional, especially when children are involved. But here goes. The backstory to this and how it started is crucial. It wasn’t even news until, Scott Smith, the father of a 15-year-old female student was arrested at a school board meeting in Loudoun County, Virginia, and subsequently became the face of “domestic terrorists” showing up at school board meetings nationwide. He was there because the board was discussing what their policy was to be on locker-room and bathroom use for “transgender” and “non-binary” students. Why was he arrested? He claimed the school board was covering up the fact that his daughter was raped in a school restroom by a fellow student, a biological male identifying as a “gender-fluid” (name and age withheld).
Here's the thing: "Except for getting your kids out of schools and educating them yourselves, what do you do?" Our family took in two local homeschoolers when their parents got divorced,
and both had to work. We unschool so our kids played together all day with theirs in our tiny, two bedroom apartment at the time. When their parents got home from work, they would address their educational needs.
Rather than making exceptions, I think it's time to ask, "how?" How can we homeschool and protect our children? What creative ways can we come up with to make this possible?
Many homeschoolers understand the imminent danger children are in at school. They would do anything to protect not only their own but the children of those less fortunate from that danger.
If we keep assuming it's "just not possible" or "just not realistic" for "exceptional" people then it never will be. (I think this might be posted on my blog today. Me and every other homeschooler are tired of this victimist rhetoric.)
People can easily find homeschooling communities in their area via social media. I suggest they ingratiate themselves with these communities ASAP. It's far more productive than trying to ingratiate oneself with a hostile and insane school board or a fixed voting system.
This shit makes my blood boil. I got perma-banned on Reddit for saying these degenerates need to be purged from society. And I don’t feel bad about it.
“Oh she’s 15 she can defend herself” fuck out of here. If only it were that simple defending yourself when you are being attacked. He should be tried as an adult.
