How about this one? An effective way to teach inclusion?

I suspect forced inclusion will end up with even more pressure and bullying, all this "feel good" nonsense is going to cause more harm than good.

I fear it's going to get a whole lot weirder before it gets better. :2razz:

The thing though is that the entire society taken as a whole is lacking the most basic of sense, is extremely weak and ill.
 
Seems forced and artificial. Even a 5yo will see through that BS.

So embrace that's it's forced and artificial, and simply compel the children to interact outside their preferred clique.

Say once a week or so, separate them "randomly" into smaller groups (2-3, or they'll form new cliques immediately) and give them an activity (puzzle, board game, whatever) to do together.

It'll force them to interact with a broader group of people, and eventually that becomes inclusion?
 
No. And on the list of the millions of issues we are facing as a nation, this ranks somewhere around the 900,000th spot.
 
When members from all sides of the political spectrum agree that an idea is stupid, it must be.
 
Good lord, who among us is now ready to stand up against such foolishness?

Everybody in group looks around, nobody steps forward. Awkward silence until someone whispers loudly, " Guess we can just let Trump do it then". Everybody nods their head, agreed and pretty confident in getting the right results.

That happens already, it is called class.

Kids, just like anybody else, can decide who they like to be friends with, and who they don't.

I have never had a problem telling a school when I think something is stupid and will not participate.

Schools can't ban best friends.

That is not something that begins at school.

I am always miffed when schools over step their bounds.

I chose not to have children, but I do pay attention. It seems to me that parenting has suffered from any number of problems and the school has had to fill roles that were traditionally parental. What I am saying is that in some instances schools have had no choice and the boundaries have become blurred.

This particular scenario I don't think has anything to do with parenting, good or bad. This is just poorly thought out social engineering.

That's why I chose to bold the part of the post I was replying to.
