Give Me A Break! ... It's Okay To Lie???
I can't believe what I just heard on the news. A teacher took a personal day off from school today, in WI, to take her kids to the state house to see Democracy in action! Oh, yea!
Let's see if I understand.
Kids watch and listen.
If you don't get your way in life just grab your toys and go home, (or better yet, go across the state line where no one can reach you). That's right... it's okay to run away. Don't accept your responsibilities, just run away! You'll be very successful in life..."just running away!" If you have a problem with your mom and dad just run away. If you have a problem with your brother or sister...just run away! When you get married and your spouse doesn't agree with you, "just run away!"
And best of all you can learn from this experience here at the capital,"it's finally okay to LIE!"
If you don't want to go to school just make up a lie and tell your teacher that you're sick. And there are lying doctors now who will give you a written excuse to back up your lie.
I guess the teachers in WI are getting the kids ready for our college system. They will be so much better prepared for the liberal professors and teachers, and will already know how to get their way and how to lie and be proud of it.
What has this world come to?
