But Ms. McGee, 51, a popular art teacher with 28 years in the classroom, is out of a job after leading her fifth-grade classes last April through the Dallas Museum of Art. One of her students saw nude art in the museum, and after the child’s parent complained, the teacher was suspended.

You know what, fuck it. All parents are henceforth required to homeschool their own kids. No one's allowed to hire experts or use private schools. The public school system will be disbanded. Parents are so fucking sure all the time that they're the only ones who have any fucking clue what's good and bad for their kids then they can fucking do it themselves.

I'm sick to death of stories like this. One asshole, puritanical, repressive dipshit parent gets up in arms and a teacher takes the heat. A teacher takes the heat for trying to expose her students to something of the wider world. And all this person can think about is that some of the art had a cock.

I fucking hate people.

http://tinyurl.com/md39x That's an interview with the teacher and her lawyer.

Yes, this is ridiculous - the public deemed the art acceptable and even paid a lot for it, lol, but one parent didn't like it - in the interview turns out it was more than one that complained - its just rabid.

I am so glad that I homeschool. If I want to take my son to a 'sex museum' and he wanted to go, we'd just go. To hell with this sort of mentality.

The most civilized cultures of all times had highly refined, proportionately superior sculpted nudes.

Why some people in this country want to put up curtains and fire teachers over looking at the beauty inherent in the art form is just crazy.

I don't want people that hate beautiful classical art in my world. I'd like to sentence them to a world devoid of art.
