• Starting today August 7th, 2024, in order to post in the Married Couples, Courting Couples, or Singles forums, you will not be allowed to post if you have your Marital status designated as private.

  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

According to the story from Fox News, a 6-year-old girl was forced by a six-year-old boy to go under his desk and perform an unnamed sex act on him, in the middle of class, while the teacher was in the room and supposedly "distracted" teaching another student.

I think this is a good reason to outlaw all public schools.
Oh my gosh! That’s horrible.

To stop children dying in mass shootings. Otherwise, to quote your own post - do you hate children?
I’m understanding you now. Banning guns will save children. That means you are on board with closing schools.

Cool.

I guess we'll have to close all the churches as well.
I think we should just drop the bombs and end humanity. This should put a stop to rapes, pronto.

If one sexual assault is enough to prompt you to ban public schools, I guess we can assume that the 40 people murdered in school shootings last year would prompt you to support banning guns?
Come to think of it, that too should be a reason to ban public schools!

Why is the word "public" in this sentence? Why not all schools? Or even, all places where children can gather with other children?

Because the government shouldn’t be paying for our children to get killed, raped, etc.

I attended private schools and remember such unspeakable acts performed in the parking lot. I dont think it matters public or private. Parents can't keep track either. Kids are just curious.
Blessings.

Why did you school allow this to happen and not inform parents?

sometimes because they do not know, sometimes because they do not care and sometimes because ( depending on the state and age of the students ) there may be nothing to report as there is NOTHING wrong with it from a legal point of view. Most states have an age of consent of 16 and many states have Romeo and Juliet laws that mean that the kids from a legal point of view are doing nothing wrong.

I get that. But the subject here is young children.

You mentioned public schools so I took that to mean all minors ( which would include anyone under 18 (in most states, but in two states the line is 19 and in one it is 21), so if the parties did nothing wrong then even if a school knows they might not tell the parents other than maybe if they were caught doing it during class, in public or something.

Not at all. Look at the horror that happened. Would you want that for your child?
For the vast majority of people, homeschooling isn't even a possible reality for them. Most families have both patents working nowadays

I think homeschooling should be outlawed, too.

It’s always an option. It’s just a matter of priorities.
