Access to the internet should be strictly controlled.
Wow, This is so true. I now must endure a lifetime impacted by shit my young daughter was shown by one of her friends from school. Private, religious school. This kid's family was new to the school, and were big donors, so nothing was done to address things by the school.
Examples of experiences with our kids public school was a child sharing pornography with the other kids st school in 5th grade, one child threatening a line of children with a knife in the second grade, and an older elementary student, so he was a fourth or fifth grader, that was going to beat the ass of three adult men that were razzing him. Small town bay area life.
A Newsome type principal came into play at some point.
Kids had to wait until lunch was almost over to receive an alternative 1/2 lunch because someone stole their lunch card that they had to leave in public on a sorting block, Kids couldn't keep any of their lunch food if they bought lunch, so if they didn't eat that apple, they'd have to give it away or throw it away. (reason given was they might take it home to someone in their family, there was an actual sign) They got in trouble for talking at lunch. It was ridiculous.
All of the field trips were dropped because the areas for attendance are so tightly controlled that few qualify for the bus and buses are only for drop off and pick up, not field trips, that requires extra money for gas, the driver, etc.
The day was long, the play was short, so not much work, not much play, and we are churning out people that can't read or do basic math, and the middle school looks like a prison yard for miniature alternative activists so we home schooled.
