Dear
Tommy Tainant
Your insistence on painting the mother as a "nutter" is equally an Emotionally charged bias and hurts your credibility in making this argument if you do the same.
Here is a better description of what is going on:
In April, Nicole Solas sent a lengthy email to the principal of Wakefield Elementary, where her child attends school, to demand records about the controversial teaching practice.

Because EMAILS were requested, which contain personal information that has to be redacted, this delays the process. The lawsuit specifies to block exempted information protected from disclosure requirements, and to delay the process due to having to go through the documents such as emails and redact personal references such as names etc.
The AMOUNT of overly broad requests, if every school gets bombarded like this, can be abused to harass and bully by legal abuse.
The equal problem is that by responding with a lawsuit, this ties up the process with even more time and costs through courts and can also be seen as legal abuse.
Both sides can abuse the process to bully or block the other instead of communicating to resolve the conflict over CRT and gender policy.
The same problem still exists: the teachers and union that have biases toward teaching liberal interpretations of history, govt, gender, etc. are in conflict with parents, families and taxpayers in their districts with opposing beliefs.
Instead of fighting legally or legislatively, the two ideologies should just agree to separate jurisdiction, and have separate schools. Instead of banning or demanding what is or isn't going to be taught.
We need more teachers to manage smaller class sizes so students receive more individualized attention.
By democratizing schools so parents, teachers and students all have equal choice and access to the policies they agree on and believe in, we can stop all this endless conflict over differences in beliefs which govt cannot mandate, regulate, establish or prohibit.
Whether the differences in beliefs are over: God, prayer, references to Creation or the Bible. Evolution, climate change, CRT, gender or sexual orientation and sex education policies. Or political beliefs about the role of govt and rights of taxpayers to have representation and consent in policies.
westwall DrLove C_Clayton_Jones danielpalos: if we are going to have equal "public accommodations" in the schools, then to include and treat people equally when (a) liberal parents/teachers/taxpayers want to teach LGBT and CRT in schools but NOT let schools teach God/prayer or people having Constitutional Authority to consent and check our own govt while (b) Christian and Conservative parents/teachers/taxpayers want to BAN teachings that blame economic and political disparity on White Racism and instead want to teach empowerment and equal access and justice through KNOWLEDGE of both Constitutional and Biblical history -- then clearly we need to allow equal choice of taxpayers to fund and follow their own curricula.
You cannot have govt either banning or establishing what type of speech is allowed in schools. People have to agree freely. If we don't agree, we need to separate so govt is not abused to force speech or to ban or regulate it.
I do not agree with liberal agenda being forced through schools at taxpayer expense without consent, any more than imposing or harassing people over religious beliefs. But one good thing that may come from the CRT debate is the right for districts to separate.
Have democratically run schools to prevent conflicts, and while we're at it, democratize clinics, hospitals, medical education and care to stop imposing conflicting beliefs and mandates over pandemic policies as well.
It will take the same efforts to solve multiple conflicts at once, by democratizing districts.
The best shortcut I see for this reform, is calling on Party leaders and groups per distruct and precinct to start separating taxpayers into likeminded associations and Cooperatives. And prepare to invest in organizing resources around enough Sites to serve the local populations proportionally.
We are not going to change each other's political beliefs about govt, and policies we want to fund or defund.
Let's be transparent, and agree to fund and follow what we believe, ask Parties and teacher/police unions to help organize and democratize our communities, and ask state reps and city/county govt to apply the same toward democratizing medical policies through Cooperatives that allow citizens to pay for the policies they want to enforce.
I support you in this effort, both my fellow progressive prochoice Liberal Democrats seeking universal care and inclusion of minority populations, and my fellow Conservative Christian Constitutionalists and Independents who support Libertarian principles of limits and checks on govt to defend individual liberties that belong to people not federal govt.
As the parent in this case stated: Game On!
Let's see if we can all win equally, liberal style, where everyone wins and nobody loses. So we can meet the standards of Equal Justice and Protections under Law, for ALL people regardless of class race or creed, and provide Public Accommodations for everyone, even the smallest minority sector where nobody is discriminated against or excluded for their beliefs.
