1) Re: 2011 House Bill 1004 (Providing for social emotional learning in public schools) by janniff on February 2, 2012Now I really wish I was back to school, I know I needed this king of education in my troubling teen years. I do hope that this form of education will have an impact on the students of today, emotional education is so important and somehow it was almost entirely ignored all these years. Now that I have my human services degree I am willing to get involved in projects of this kind, it's to make a difference.
1. I am a woman.
2. When I was growing up, way before politcal-correctness and parents acquiescing their authority to the liberals who believe only they are smart enough to tell everyone how to think and act, I learned from my mother, my relatives, the neighborhood adults, and my church community how to control my emotions, how to treat other children, how to have respect for adults, and how to take responsibility for my actions.
It is my belief that parents, not the public schools, and certainly not the liberals who control both the state and schools, are the ones who are responsible for their children.
It is the STATE with its interference in parental rights and its encouraging the breakup of the family that is directly responsible for the mess plenty of children are in.
OH NO! Public indoctrination schools cannot fulfill their obligation to teach basic education, and now you want to add emotional learning? Please get some common sense! This is just a more blatant way to BRAINWASH children who have no choice but to be in public indoctrination schools.
VOTE NO!
Comment to the Washington State Legislature: When posting bill information, why don't you post the party affiliation of those who are sponsoring the bills? So far, every ludicrous bill I've seen has been sponsored by DEMOCRATS!
