Colorado 7th Graders, Parents, Required To Take “Righty/Lefty” Survey
Here is the transcript of the letter to the school:

I am appalled by the “Righty or Lefty” poll. First of all it is nobody’s business what mine or my 12-year-old son’s political views are. Secondly, my own son does not even know what half of these issues mean until after discussing them with him. His answers vary greatly during discussion. His views will always change as he grows and as new issues arise and he learns that these things have an effect on his life.

As I am reading these topics, I have noticed the entire thing is pro-Liberal and con-Conservative, being completely skewed towards “Lefty-nicey/meany conservatives” ideology, which I do not approve of. The entire thing is unbalanced and an unfair and inaccurate representation. My family is NEITHER and I do not appreciate you or the school trying to pawn this assignment off on students who are too young to have valuable opinions on these subjects!

I do not know what importance this has as being an assigned worksheet for a “major grade” (has he has informed me). I do not want to hear about it being for a government assignment! Learning about government is one thing – but it is none of your business to try and pry personal information out of a child on extremely private information. I am excusing my son from this assignment and expect this NOT to be counted against his grade. Sincerely, _____.wtf

I would have taken it to school and asked some very personal
questions to them! I did this when my kid were in school, they did not like it, did not stop me. Some are member of the national teachers group in Washington, they are train in how to brush parents question to the side, when you are talking to them. I don't stop, if I don't get answers or they stop, doing what they were doing. I also volunteered, to work in the schools free.

Not all teachers agreed with the agenda, and loved to talk!
