Local school district tried the vaccine segregation route. Did not go well for them.
? These people are stupid!
They sent a message saying teachers and students who are vaccinated could de-mask. All hell broke loose with teachers and parents today. Now masks are optional and not required at all for any reason. Don't let the liberal hive mind run your schools! You can save the children! We are the majority!
I'm surprised they didn't here. I hate seeing kids with masks on.
Me too. My kids will still wear them sometimes (only at school though), they said because they don’t want to cause a scene. Teenagers really want to fit in, it’s uncomfortable going against the flow.
I always ask them anyway, “Why are you wearing a mask, take that thing off, it’s unsanitary.” ?
As a teenager, I never cared about fitting in. My parents raised me and my siblings to be independent with strong identities. We dealt with bullies swiftly and severely - even if it meant a trip to the principal's office. My parents demonstrated for us by how they conducted themselves. They did not back down from misguided authority when the cause was just. They fought for causes even though at times they stood alone. We always had their support after they heard what happened because we were taught never to start confrontation. But, we never shrank from it when it came our way. We stood our ground and were taught that sometimes being right means sometimes going against the flow even though it may not be the popular thing to do.
Social media has created an atmosphere for our youth that their self worth and identity is defined by others more so than any other preceding generation. Our children need to know that their identity is not defined by others and that they need to like who they see staring back at them in the mirror - even if they run the risk of not being liked by others. That can only come from within. I always tell mine that those people that are trying to judge you today will be just a memory to you in the future and that you are not going to even remember their names much less care about what they thought.
I was the same way, I don’t back down and have a big mouth when I’m pissed about something. My mom was a non confrontational person & it took a bit to get her mad, but when she was pissed you knew it, lol. But my stepdad didn’t take shit from no one, period. So might be where I got it from even though he isn’t my biological dad. I’m stubborn. I always told my kids not to back down from a fight if someone laid their hands on them first, don’t start it but finish it, and don’t take crap from anyone. None of my kids were bullies nor were they bullied.
Two are girls and are pretty quiet and easily embarrassed. My son, he’s polite yet firm with people, he said he only wears it in the hall. I dunno, kids are weird. I wish they’d never wear one, I hate those things.
I love to tell kids they don't have to wear the diaper. Some are just not willing to break the rules. My kid though, I'm proud of what kind of ultra patriot I have created. He bleeds red white and blue now days and has a posse of other patriots at school. It's pretty amazing.
Oh yes. That’s a hard no for me too.
