School wants parents to take responsibility – now their poster is spreading like wildfire online

It’s a timeless question: where do a school’s responsibilities begin, and where do they end?

This is especially relevant when considering where to draw the line between what constitutes parents’ responsibilities and a school’s.

A Portuguese school decided to clarify the matter once and for all, by sticking a poster in its halls- and the message they’re sending is now spreading like wildfire.

The school’s sign was later shared on Facebook, where the message contained within it quickly began to spread around the world.

The simple but effective messager highlights five key points which the school is determined should be managed by the parents, as follows: (above).

It is shameful that the school had to do this, but it is absolutely correct and should be on a large bronze plaque mounted on the exterior wall at the main entrance of every school, every where. Then keep it there and enforce it. But it wouldn't take long before the poster offends a parent, to suggest the parent have a role in raising their own child. It will then be labeled racist and removed with any existing statues. Today's societal ills.

And it is your responsibility to feed your children instead of the schools feeding breakfast lunch and sometimes after school dinner. If you are going to pop babies out...........make sure you can feed them.

"Here at American schools, we teach transgenderism, cross dressing, sex education, same sex relationships, wearing a burkha, racism, Whiteness, White privilege, African studies, women's studies and have dress up day. Then we skim over a little word and letter recognition, money counting, and texting."

Maybe I need to send my kids to Portugal for an education and hope Allahu Akbar doesn't show up.

When was the last time a young person said "yes sir, thank you mam, no mam?"
People who do not show respect somehow demand to be respected and that is not how a civilized society works.
