Teacher In Hot Seat After Controversial Quotation

I could see it going either way, sure, but there's another clue: where the statement is on the board. Most teachers put any thought-provoking statement up at the top so there's room to put more underneath. It helps students to see the logical progression of the debate, and that takes room on a board. If it were a quick write sort of thing--something the teacher wanted the kids to write about, pro or con--or something the teacher wasn't trying to get opinions on, it would have been in the middle of the board with no room for additions.

Either way, class discussions can sometimes get a bit out of hand even with the most professional of teachers. So, she's getting homeschooled now? That tells me that this isn't the first issue the mom's had with the school, and her bizarre statement about opinions tells me all I need to know. Hint: most people in Kentucky who rail about teachers' opinions and yank their kids out of the school to homeschool them aren't Dems.
