yeah americans are super weirdly obsessed with total freedom. i kinda get it, but its weird to me lol. freedom for yourself and your own choices, yes. once you're fucking up another person and especially a child with your bullshit then i dont really believe that freedom should be absolute

The problem with that is who decides what is fucked up? Therein lies the problem.

 

[Poyser]

Probably the government that was democratically elected. That's what they're there for lol

 

[Dakstang]

lol Americans do NOT like or trust the government. Especially right now.

 

[Dakstang]

I don't want the government deciding much for me.

 

[Poyser]

gonna have to turn your country anarchist then eh

 

[CakeWalker]

Poyser the cirriculumcan just be found on the internet

 

[Dakstang]

Our government is a shit show of politicians trying to score political points and not caring about what is good for the people who elected them.

 

[CakeWalker]

if a parent cant find access to it - then can just request it from the school

 

[CakeWalker]

i n the UK

 

[Poyser]

Lol same tbh

 

[Poyser]

I'd still trust them over Sally from Bradford that's read a couple magazines and knows whats best for the children tho

 

[Dakstang]

I agree to an extent. But I don't necessarily agree they should be deciding school curriculum. I think that should be left to the local schools.

 

[Dakstang]

Like I trust our Federal health advisers and such. The FDA etc... But Politicians......yeah not so much. They are a bunch of liars.

 

[Poyser]

Ehhhh, maybe at an area level. If you let the local school decide their curriculum then you're really at risk from a couple of the crackpot teachers fucking up an entire school lmao. I'd say having someone in charge of education from that area (county or state or something) would make the most sense. Obviously here its mostly national as we're much smaller.

 

[Dakstang]

Yeah sorry, that is what I meant when I said local. Where I live anyway the schools are ran by State but they have County School Boars who decided issues like that.
