Homeschooling is never a. Better option. I’m sorry, but I’ve known numerous home schooled kids and parents. It is never equivalent to the same level education you get in a private school and that’s not even taking into account the social aspect deficit of home schooled kids

---

Some of the smartest and high achieving people I know were homeschooled. One is $100 million plus type of net worth. Much more well spoken home schooled kids than the occasional weird kid. They finished all their work by noon, went on much more and cooler field trips, you have programs for home schooled kids to play sports at private schools too.

How about you take this thread down?Never letting my kids on here again.

Santa not being real is the least of your worries about what your kid will uncover here.

Thanks for the info!

I was wrong. They’re from Philly: Anthony Waddell Jefferson and Lester Brown.

Pro tip: Blame all negative data on minorities, immigrants, women, and pit bulls. And if you find irrefutable evidence that disqualifies these groups, hit them in their politics.

Holy shite you just described about 95% of every argument I’ve ever been in on this site. The other 5% was defending Myles Brennan in vain. Thanks for letting me know I’m not crazy.

I think you’re probably the subject matter expert on inability.

His study showed more religious states had higher teen pregnancies. In other words, southern states, the bible belt. Which also happens to have the highest black population density in the country. Therefore it's worth consideration that maybe that is what's driving the teen pregnancy rate up. Perhaps a variable that could have more correlation than religion, worth looking into at least imo For instance Utah is a pretty religious state but also has a pretty low black population percentage and they have a pretty low teen pregnancy rate as a state.

---

Now do education levels and socioeconomic status.

I’m pretty sure Utah has better education rates, higher literacy rates, and better socioeconomic status’s comparatively as well.

So, pretty sure calling it a black versus white issue is lazy and ignorant.

This I can believe and it would explain your current confirmation bias. The catholic church, its leaders (all the way up to the pope) should burn in hell for eternity for this. I had more than one acquaintance that was a victim of this as well. But again, the difference I saw was the other Christians wanted the pedo priests punished to the fullest extent of the law.

1 experience doesn’t explain or define anything. It happens in every religion. I went to a private southern baptist university. My degree is in psychology, I am a trained trauma intervention specialist and volunteer my time, my profession is emergency response. I’ve spent my whole life in dedicated service to others. I’ve been affected by, studied at length, and been there for people affected by this.

My view on this topic is rooted in the results of research as i was trained to do when receiving my degree and I continue in my masters.

I’ll go with my experience and research against any opinion of yours.

I've read this thread and I don't believe that anyone said ONLY liberals can be pedos. That's insane. And even if someone did say that, it should quickly be dismissed as stupid. MY point is that conservatives want them ALL prosecuted, regardless of conservative or liberal political affiliation. ALL OF THEM. If it is proven that Trump was a pedo, I guarantee you the vast majority of conservatives will want him prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. Will some still turn a blind eye, sure. Also my point, the opposite is true of liberals. The vast majority defend their pedos.

---

Eh, I’d say that’s mostly true. Liberals do seem to want to temp fate and put vulnerable people in bad situations, but they also support sex education and contraception in higher numbers which are proven at keeping teen pregnancy and STD numbers lower. And there’s a reference in this thread to a person who posts on the OT who has said that, so we can split hairs but that notion is in this thread and debated in this thread.

Even better

So I must be democrat but even better when I’m not? What a dumb person you are.

Pedos reading storytime to kids and letting men in women's restrooms is worse, obviously. This is considered good practice, legal and supported openly by democrats. YOU support this because of your cult, blindly, because they told you to. Pastors being closer to kids so that they can be pedos is horrible, illegal, immoral. And none of us conservatives support it. We are pissed when it is found out. We are pissed when it is discovered that it was swept under the rug and the person has been transferred to another parish only to do it again. We want it to stop. We want them prosecuted. That's the difference.

---

I don’t support any of it and never said I did. There’s conservatives on this board in this thread saying pedophiles can only be liberal so I shared something to the contrary and yall lost your minds. Small minds, small dicks, big feelings.
