At school today I learned arithmetic…

…and got an abortion.

When she signed a consent form, Jill [A Ballard High School girl's mother] figured it meant her 15 year old could go to the Ballard Teen Health Center located inside the high school for an earache, a sports physical, even birth control, but not for help terminating a pregnancy.

“She took a pregnancy test at school at the teen health center,” she said. “Nowhere in this paperwork does it mention abortion or facilitating abortion.”

Jill says her daughter, a pro-life advocate, was given a pass, put in a taxi and sent off to have an abortion during school hours all without her family knowing.

“We had no idea this was being facilitated on campus,” said Jill. “They just told her that if she concealed it from her family, that it would be free of charge and no financial responsibility.”

Here at Strictly Right we frequently bash the modern education system for a plethora of reasons. They teach promiscuity, homosexuality, anti-Westernism, pro-racism and a variety of other socially detrimental qualities. My understanding was that schools’ advocacy of abortion was limited to teach girls it was an option, not setting it up for them. Parents need to give consent for a child to hop on a bus to go to a theater. However, to put them in a taxi and send them off to have their baby murdered in the school day, parents don’t even find out about it.

Parents, home-school your kids, seriously.

Teacher of the year award?

Heh.

Apparently we have another example of teachers being forced to worry about political correctness as opposed to truth and facts.

A Montgomery County teacher who told a high school sophomore last week that she was dressed like a prostitute has apologized to the student and her mother, the mother said Tuesday.

Jam Donaldson at Conversate is Not a Word pretty much summed up my thoughts:

I personally want to thank this teacher for having the guts to say what so many teachers and school administrators are afraid to say.

Whatever happened to enforcing standards in our schools? I remember our principal would get on us if our jeans were a little too tight. At some point, it seems the school community just gave up:

You want to wear a thong hanging out of your jeans, you want to have your boobies falling out, your ass cheeks popping out of your low-riders, no problem.

Teachers used to be able to hit their students, discipline, yell, comment, and anything else that made them better individuals. Now, teachers in most places aren’t even allowed to fail a student because, after all, they tried their hardest (despite how this is generally untrue.) Sex education is now 12 steps to becoming a slut and/or a homosexual. World religions now teaches students why they should pray to Mecca and shun God. And, social sciences teaches girls that years of feminism existed to give them the right to get knocked up and now, dress like a hooker.

I hope that this incident doesn’t turn other teachers off from being honest.
