Mississippi elementary school assistant principal Toby Price was shown the door last week after, in what the superintendent called “a lack of professionalism,” he read a second-grade class a book called “I Need a New Butt.” The book, written by Dawn McMillan, is a “silly” story about a young boy’s quest to find a new butt because his “has a huge crack.” “Will he choose an armor-plated butt?” the Amazon description asks. “A rocket butt? Find out in this quirky tale of a tail, which features hilarious rhymes and delightful illustrations.”

Little kids giggle over farrt and butt because they know it’s naughty. They don’t need an adult in a position of authority normalizing it. I feel so old right now.

That was a good call by one particular school board. Bet that former teacher has a potty mouth to match his reading preferences. I am 80 years old and am still shocked that in high school English, we had to read the Canterbury Tales by Chaucer.

The breathless admiration with which this article is written(and in the comments) is disturbing. This book is the stuff of which kids giggle at recess, outside the ears of adults. This moron thinks he is somehow building a relationship with these kids by stepping into their world. Super. But it's not about him (When, when, when will liberals learn this?) It's about THE KIDS and as an educator he owes them something more than being hungry for being liked by them and getting them to giggle along with his antics.

Two thoughts: Educators are usually hard to fire. It MAY be likely that this was the straw that broke the camel's back. Butt maybe not. The guy was asked to call an audible in his superior's absence, so he reached for what was near at hand. Thought two: there is a bunch of fuddy-duddies on this thread. This book is clearly harmless and geared toward elementary schoolers' humor. It would be different if it had some type of ideological axe to grind about sexuality or gender identity. If you want children to learn to enjoy reading, you're not going to give a first grader The Federalist Papers. I think we've jumped the shark when one genuine conservative has to say to others on a conservative message board: "Lighten up, Francis."

Young people, if you are thinking about a career, avoid teaching. State mandates and teacher evaluation techniques have turned the profession into one of constant anxiety. ...worried about saying something that's not woke enough, about when is the next administrator sneaking into the room to spy on you with a "walk through evaluation" and nitpicking micromanagement. It's walking on egg shells all day.

My children and I attended prep schools and elite universities and my husband, their father, attended a most highly selective college and has an advanced degree in nuclear engineering. I was raised in a Midwestern WASP home where good manners were never optional. My point is that I take education and upbringing very seriously and yet I’ve read that book (from the library) to my grandchildren at bedtime. It’s silly and harmless, the worst part being the saying of the word “butt”. Giggles galore. This author of this article must be leaving something out.

Odd things are happening. Parents are domestic terrorist that attend school board meetings. Yet, they vote. And some educators have noticed this disturbing trend. Just as the Woke movement made its way into schools the Parents Awake moment is moving back into schools. What was once acceptable now is questioned by parents. And educators have a new fear of accountability if parents vote in parent oriented school boards. It shall be interesting to watch how this plays out over the next couple of election cycles.

I've raised four kids. Kids LOVE to talk about butts and farts. That is comedy to a second grader. Have you ever farted in front of a 7 year old? They ROFL. If I were this guy, I wouldn't want my job back. I'd be looking for a different school system while I figured out how to sue the old school for wrongful termination.

I haven't seen the book. My first reaction, though was an assumption it was dome transgender grooming session, but I just may be over-sensitized by all the crap LGBTQ+ has been hurling around. I have never been critical of friends/neighbors/family members who chose the gay ifestyle, but none of them are rubbing it in my face and gloating, either.

I teach at a Christian preschool. I am retired and this is my 6th year teaching. Not too long ago this book came up under suggestions for me on Amazon as I have ordered several children's books from them. I thought then it was in bad taste. BUT I thought that my child when he was about 8 years old would probably have thought it was hilarious.

I was in second grade a few years right after shows like Sesame Street and Scooby-Doo Where Are You first came on line. Back then teachers, assistant principals were normal and just wanted to teach and take care of us. So if a book like this was read we'd laugh and think that it was funny (what 7 year old wouldn't). Because kids back then were safe in school. Fast forward to 2022. You now have teacher, asst. principals, principals and school board administers thinking that it's ok if your 7 year old gets taught about racism, homosexuality and transgenderism. I don't give a fudge that the book is so-called "geared towards elementary schoolers" In my opinion it's not appropriate in the school environment we have to deal with. Period. What's next "Heather has Two Mommies?"

Why Are Women Unhappy 39 replies
Posted by Beardo 4/20/2022 12:44:15 PM Post Reply
A little over a decade ago, two researchers at Wharton published a paper showing that, despite women’s increasing work and educational opportunities, their self-reported happiness was in steady decline. Back in 1970, women were on average happier than men; they are now less happy than men. Broadly, since 1970, everyone has gotten more miserable. But the decline in women’s overall happiness has outpaced men’s, and the happiness curve inverted sometime in the early 1990s. The paper also documents increasing anxiety and neuroticism, as well as decreasing social cohesion among women.

New York Times Op-ed on Holy Weekend:

The New York Times published an op-ed Friday that proposes eliminating belief in God — as one of the holiest weekends of the year begins. Titled “In This Time of War, I Propose We Give Up God,” the article claims that God is responsible for “war and violence” and for “oppression and suffering,” and suggests that people stop teaching children about Him. Author Shalom Auslander, who is disillusioned about his upbringing in a religious Jewish community in New York, argues (original emphasis): God, it seems, paints with a wide brush. He paints with a roller. In Egypt, said our rabbi, he even killed first-born cattle.

The lawsuit, filed by April Curley, says Google places black employees in lower-level jobs, pays them less, and denies them opportunities to grow at the company, Reuters reported. Specifically, Curley states black people make up only 4.4% of employees and about 3% of leadership, according to Reuters.

Shares of Netflix plunged 37% Wednesday morning after the streamer reported earnings Tuesday evening that showed it lost subscribers for the first time in more than ten years. The results and weak outlook led to a wave of downgrades from Wall Street over fears of the company's long-term growth potential. Netflix said several headwinds are impacting growth, including competition and the easing pandemic restrictions. The company had been significantly boosted by coronavirus stay-at-home orders, as more people sought out digital entertainment. But people spent less time on digital platforms as vaccines rolled out and mandates eased. Slower household broadband growth also played a role in the company's weak forecast.
