If a parent feels it's wrong, they have every right in the world to express that to the school. You know, freedom of speech? It's up to the school to determine if that warrants firing or not.
She teaches our children for christ's sake! Do you want your children taught to hate Jews or anyone else for that matter? And don't give me that "well, as long as she doesn't express that in the class room..." line of crap... That would only be a valid argument if the schools had someone there in the classroom to monitor what the teacher said. Since they don't, we have to trust that she wouldn't have expressed her bigotry, and when it comes to forming the views and thoughts of our kids, that is a chance we can't afford to take.
Oops... Guess I spoke too soon... Geez
Thats why we talk to our children about what they are being taught, thats why we have to be an integral part of our childs education, thats why if I found out a teacher was teaching those sorts of things in class my child wouldnt be in her class any longer.... You cant fire someone for someting that "could" be said, but you can most definitely fire someone for something that *is* said.
as far as your question about would I want my child to be taught to hate? Of course not...and I do everything in my power as a parent and a role model to make sure that doesnt happen. And if I found out a teacher at my childs school was teaching that sort of hatred, you can bet the entire school district and beyond would know my name and my child would promptly be taken out of that class, that school if needed.
and I dont believe I ever said that it wasnt right for a parent to let the school know how they feel about a situation... it most certainly is right and proper to do so.
