Do you think a teacher/parent/guardian should be permitted within their freedom of expression to convey discriminatory thoughts to their child(ren) against a certain race, religion, belief, etc?
Teacher: No
Parents: Yes
I am not trying to seem like a crude person but if a family has certain beliefs it is well within their rights to say and think what they believe on those of others. It is the duty of a teacher to display all the various perspectives so that when the child comes of age (ie: an adult) they can begin to make their own decisions in terms of their beliefs. Generally, the families beliefs are passed on to the child and carried on but now a days we may begin to see a shift in that pattern. Since teachers are becoming increasingly more open about different events children are getting more of a broader picture and are able to make better, informed choices.
