Oh! America got burned in English class today (Human rights)

Last edited Wed Feb 14, 2018, 06:51 AM - Edit history (1)

My 7th grader - everything is shocking - just said this to me

"What were you talking about?"
"Human rights violations. Everyone EVERYONE had an example from our country"
"Like what?"
"Well ____ brought up unlawful detention"
"And you"
"Well I brought up Dr. King and his arrests though he was peacefully protesting. I just added to what ____ said"
"Any other comments?"
"Oh yeah but I can't remember all of them but they were all about our country"

It's an International Baccalaureate program. Public school.

No idea how that kid crawled out of this gene pool.

I have enough problem dealing with the bachelorette shit on TV. NOT that I deal with it at all, actually.
