What people are saying:

• Facebook User: Thank you for speaking out
• Facebook User: “Real parental rights mean making decisions for your own child while respecting the rights of every other family to do the same.”

  This is the fundamental argument for vouchers. You choose what you want and so does everyone else. It is the purest form of parental rights.

  • Secular Education Association: Facebook User You’re conflating parental rights with public funding. Parents already have the right to choose private education. Vouchers aren’t about creating that right; they’re about requiring taxpayers to subsidize it, even when many private schools can reject students or charge beyond the value of the voucher. Those aren’t the same thing.
  • Facebook User: You’re leaving out the part where vouchers are simply tax payer subsidies for private school. Private schools that still have a cost difference between a voucher and tuition, transportation requirements, and acceptance restrictions…
  • Facebook User: Facebook User – it’s tax theft!
  • Facebook User: Secular Education Association I believe you are confusing the issue. Why should I be forced to pay for an education that I disagree with? This is the opposite of choice, it is the forced inclusion of a group that has significantly different opinions.
  • Facebook User: Facebook User yet it’s really school choice and not parental choice. Even EdChoice attorneys acknowledge in court parents applying to private schools and not admittance.
  • Facebook User: Facebook User in that same logic, I should not have to pay for a public education system that disagrees with my beliefs.
  • Facebook User: If being neutral and accepting of everyone contradicts with your beliefs, then you’re part of the problem…

    This false narrative that public education pushes ideologies is a freaking joke. People who push that narrative are the ones that are literally trying to force their religious beliefs into public schools.

  • Facebook User: Facebook User Even if you receive a voucher, as long as you live within the boundary of a public school district, as we all do, you will still pay property taxes to help fund that school district. The only way to avoid doing that is to go live off the grid.
  • Facebook User: Facebook User lifewise can be after school like any other activity. Let them kids enjoy school
  • Facebook User: Facebook User just don’t use my tax dollars for vouchers
• Facebook User: When the children who don’t attend lifewise are pressured, bullied, and shunned, we all lose.
• Facebook User:
• Facebook User: Children are their own people – THEY have rights. Parents have a RESPONSIBILITY.
  • Secular Education Association: Facebook User we agree!
• Facebook User: Yes 👍🇺🇸👏
• Facebook User: The irony is heavy 😆
  • Facebook User: You mean encouraging acceptance and creating a space for everyone is “imposing beliefs?”
• Facebook User: Are we starting to teach real sex ed now?
• Facebook User:
• Facebook User: Parental Rights deny Teacher’s and Children’s rights
• Facebook User: We need all religion removed from schools. Except for history classes when they need to teach
• Facebook User: Yeah,,you are marxists parading around with the promise of equality,,what a ruse
  • Facebook User: What a freaking joke. We simply want public education to be a neutral environment where everyone is accepted and respected and that makes us Marxists?
  • Facebook User: Facebook User Folks like Jim here are just calling things that don’t agree with “communist” or “Marxist” or “woke” without even knowing the definitions of those words.
• Facebook User: Idiots.
