If you home school your kids the state does not refund the taxes you pay to support schools. Also, here in Ohio you have to spend 900 hours per year schooling your kid and you must keep records. You do not have to have any particular "ability" to home school your kid. I think Ohio law on home schooling was written to accommodate the Amish.

They have not ruled yet. And I'm entitled to my opinion.

So you are addressing the transgender issue. Thanks for that clarification.

I read the article. I'm not clear on which side of the issue you stand. My point is that it's too long to ask kids to memorize the whole thing.

Winner, winner, chicken dinner.

The three remaining candidates for president are all running on the same core principle. The country is a mess, and the solution is the government under my leadership.

The last Republican that got it was Ronald Reagan when he said "Government is not the solution to our problem, government is the problem."

Since then, the GOP has turned into Democrats Lite. Government can fix the problem, but we just don't need as much government as those other guys on the left want.

No one who is not transgender is going to pretend to be transgender just to see a naked woman. That is the kind of thing that a person would not live down if friends or family found out.
Don't forget Europe has had unisex bathrooms forever. Urinals for men; stalls for women and those who need to do their business sitting down. No one is bothered by it-except a few Americans-and no one pervs on someone else.

Have a pregunta

If all these candidates are so anti government.....

Why do they want to be PART of the government?

Love my country.

Despise the political parties.....

In some ways I agree. The constitution was designed to be a government of comprise. When they are not compromising, the politicians aren't doing their job.

No I am not kidding. It was commonplace up to the 1963 Supreme Court ruling that outlawed Bible reading and prayer. As soon as that decision was made the morality of the country started to take a nose dive and it has never recovered.

You live in a different world than the rest of us with your thinking. Millions of teenagers, when facing no risk of punishment, will be sneaking into the womens restrooms and locker rooms to see naked girls. BTW, rape and murder are things that a person would not ever live down by family or friends but yet that happens on a daily basis, now doesn't it.

That's not his head.

Not that I've been in one lately, but don't womens' restrooms have stalls? I'm not sure quite what the problem is here - unless behavior is inappropriate.

So you are ok with YOUR daughter HAVING to accept that set up?

[Tom]

Why should my tax dollars be used to force my kids to recite or listen to a prayer promoting a religion that I do not subscribe to and that I do not want my kids indoctrinated in?

Because the majority of those who are paying for the schools with their tax dollars do. You object to your children having to listen to a prayer, but are willing to allow them to have no personal privacy when it come bathrooms and locker rooms? Just to accommodate mentally ill people's delusions?

Interesting.

You need to get out more.
Of course they would. And all would laugh about it later.

Unfortunately, there are over 800,000 registered sex offenders in this country, but according to an ABC New Report, only about 30% of all sex crimes get reported. President Obama has said that 20% of ALL women have been raped and snopes fact checked it and said that it is accurate if you also include attempted rape. There are millions of perverts out there. Letting men who can say that they "identify" with women into bathrooms with women and girls is just plain stupid.

And the bottom line is, true transgender women, such as those who have had sex change operations, have been using men's bathrooms for decades. We didn't need to change any laws, and it was liberal politicians who changed the laws in Charlotte, N.C., as an example. The gov of N.C. simply reacted to that law and made a new law that states that in public places, such as schools, you must use the bathroom of your true gender. The law doesn't affect private businesses, they can do whatever they want. This guy was crucified for protecting woman and children. The Charlotte law not only put them in danger, but it was took away their rights of privacy.

You have to be kidding. Start with post 37 and do a little thinking from there.
