You do not have the right to decide what your child learns in school:

No, of course parents don’t have the right to shape their kids’ school curriculum. That should be exclusively the province of leftwing teachers.
“Parents rights protests are rooted in politics, not US law, which says kids should learn to think for themselves.”
This is so creepy and fucked up. They’re blatant about their desire to drive a wedge between children and their parents.
Because presumably those parents protesting Critical Race Theory and other garbage being taught in schools are pesky rightwing Trump supporters, and the public schools are determined to make sure none of those kids follow along in their parents footsteps.
This is their goal. It has been their goal all along. They want to turn the children against their parents. Because they know that strong families are a bulwark against tyranny.
They want weak and broken and dysfunctional families. They want corrupted youth. They want kids estranged from parents.
You don’t need parents. The government will take care of you.
The part about “kids learning to think for themselves” is truly rich.
They don’t want kids thinking for themselves. They want kids thinking like them.
Earlier this year the New York Times ran this unbelievable headline discouraging critical thinking:

The fuckin’ balls on these people, man.
Don’t engage in critical thinking. Just believe everything we tell you.
“Critical thinking, as we’re taught to do it, isn’t helping in the fight against misinformation.”
No, it is the fight against misinformation.
Misinformation that comes predominantly from the New York Times and other state propaganda organs like it.
These people do not want anyone “thinking for themselves.” That is a transparent lie.
But this is how they operate. This is how they fight. It’s all based on deception and ostensibly noble goals which conceal the true sinister intent.
“We just want these kids to be able to think for themselves! Parents, get off our backs, please.”
“Okay, class. Today’s lesson is why Donald Trump is literally Hitler. Then, after lunch, we’ll talk about why America is irredeemably racist and evil and must be destroyed. And don’t forget your required reading on why being straight is evil!”
They take all your values, corrupt the living hell out of them, and then use them against you.
“You don’t have the right to say what you want on social media. Facebook is a private corporation and they can ban anyone they want!”
“You don’t truly value free speech unless you support my right to burn the American flag!”
