I hate the communist classroom

[amandae21]

I'll be homeschooling this year, so this will no longer apply, but I still think it's wrong...

I remember my daughter's Kindergarten year. We bought all brand supplies because, well, we can afford them and they are better quality and last longer so that's what I wanted her to have.

Then I saw what she was actually using and it's not what I purchased!

Second grade, everyone was supposed to bring their school supplies to orientation. We brought ours and were faced with buckets for each type of supply where everything gets dumped in together and is redistributed. Seriously? I opened up DD's crayon box and were Crayola crayons and markers in there? No. Roseart and some non-brand markers.

This irritated the shit out of me because I paid extra for those and she wasn't even the one using them!

I saw that another mom had labeled all her child's supplies at home with permanent marker. Wish I would've thought about that. But it doesn't really do any good because my daughter's 3-prong folder had some other kid's name written on the inside.

I can't really think of anything LESS important than this. I really don't see the issue.

If material name brand possessions being swapped out in public school among students is your problem we don't need you lolol

actually..it irritates the heck out of me and my kids...going school supply shopping is kind of fun and a big deal for my kids...starting  a new grade, a new class, a new teacher...its part of the excitement...we used to spend alot of time picking out the specific supplies..some name brand, some not..choosing the types and colors that my kids wanted, etc. only to find out that it doesnt matter because its all collected and redistributed..its bs...if the teachers need extra supplies for the kids that cant afford them then i can certainly help pitch in, but dont take my kids' supplies...now my kids dont even like to go and i just pick out whatevers cheapest..

Wow. No way! See, republicanism should be treated like a religion. It's a belief system and that violates it entirely. And if we then lower our own 'quality' it's wrong, but to ask for the BETTER option that someone else pbviously wants but doesn't want to PAY FOR IT...and then WE'RE yelled at and called 'in the wrong' for wanting it enough to 'prioritize' it. They don't have to raise THEIR value system, why would they when they can get it free. So they're


in the right for using something WE cared enough about to PROVIDE our child, and we're 'selfish' and 'in the wrong' for wanting what WE bought to go to OUR own children. I wouldn't stand for it. That communist bs is only 'poor' interested and leaves the ones with higher values beaten down to be 'equal' because it's WRONG to have 'high standards' and work for them and 'RIGHT' to have them and just rob the proclaimed 'narcissistic' other side...okkkkk? Says who? The one only out for liberty so ling as it PROFITS them, but if it robs US, we're 'the bad guy'? UUUGHHH. Disgusting.

Non issue. Our school provides all of the supplies. We can buy and donate if we want, but it is all provided.

Yes, I think homeschooling is the best choice for you.

Communist classroom...lol.

I agree about the communist classroom.

People need to stop giving away our secrets or I'm not going to be able to afford my cruise next year!

Well if the teachers weren't melting the crayons down to make candles to sell on etsy to fund their Hawaiian vacations.....maybe all the kids would have crayons!

So....the parents that refuse to buy the 6 packs of crayons that their kid will use that year, should that kid just have to sit out when the class does a lesson where they need to color?

read it again..maybe your little brain can figure out what she's saying...its called re-distributing the wealth and some of us who have worked hard to get where we are don't like it...hows that? understand?
