This is what indoctrination looks like

Yep! Something every good parent should do.

But not teachers? They’re supposed to just enforce the rules without explaining the reasons behind them?

Are there even mandates anymore?

My place of employment still requires masks when walking about.

And when I went to the doctors a month back they required masks.

Most places I’ve been don’t really care anymore though.

Weird. You have doctors requiring masks and I have doctors dismissing them as paper waste.

Seemed unnecessary since I"m vaxxed. But probably easier to enforce it on all rather than some here and not others.

@Oryx

I’m not claiming it would. I’m claiming that teachers have an interest in explaining school policy to the kids.

Why? A preschool child is in no position to understand nor influence anything???

Your beef should be with the policy, not the teachers who are trying to get kids to follow it.

My beef is with the LIB urge to control and indoctrinate. That’s what this is really all about. They are for the wearing of masks, and by god everyone should be required to submit to their will.

A teacher’s job isn’t to enforce anything. It is to teach the subject matter without bias or without an agenda.

It is undoubtedly the job of a teacher to enforce the rules as well.

Yes, why not? Do you just tell your kids to brush their teeth without telling them they’ll get cavities if they don’t?

Its not up to the teachers to teach a child how to brush their teeth. That is a parent’s responsibility.

I got basic hygiene like brushing my teeth taught to me in grade school in the 1970’s.

That was peak Marxism.

No its not the job of the teacher to enforce a mask mandate. That is between the principal and the parent.

I assure you, if you look at the job description for any teacher on the planet, you will see a responsibility to enforce school rules in their classrooms.

How about sending kids that age to a religious school…Would that also be indoctrination?

You answered your own question. If I choose to send my child to a catholic school, I choose to do so because I want my child to be indoctrinated in catholic beliefs.

I would not expect any kind of agenda driven indoctrination of any kind in a public school.

So no pledge of allegiance?

Yep! Me too. I was taught about teeth brushing in general as part of my health class at a much older age. I certainly was never taught how to brush my teeth in preschool by my teacher. I learned how and why to brush my teeth by my parents.

All of our parents send their kids to our school because it resembles North Korea. Common knowledge.

If LIBs had their way, that is exactly what our public schools would resemble. Can you say CRT?

Almost all libs I know worship North Korea. Most libs I know want to move to North Korea. Most libs I know already have filed for citizenship in North Korea. Most libs I know are already living in North Korea.

There was a time when it was blindly repeated as part of the school day. There was no agenda until LIBs decided that America wasn’t that great and that we shouldn’t be pledging our allegiance to a country with flaws.

Indoctrinating children to blindly (as you say) pledge allegiance wasn’t part of an agenda?

You should probably think that one through.

Like half a preschool teacher’s job is trying to get kids to follow the rules.

More than half.

Not really. If a child acts up in class, they are sent to the principal’s office. The teacher is not expected to discipline a child without incurring repercussions. They certainly have no authority over a child whose parent chooses to ignore a school mask mandate. That is a matter for the principal and the parent to resolve.

[Oryx]

Sending the kid to the principal’s office is literally enforcing the rules.

Cleary, you have no idea what a teacher does when a child “acts up.”

Nope. The agenda surfaced with LIB PC crap looking to remove the pledge from the classroom.
