yeah who the hell cares if it affects scores.




Some New Jersey parents are upset after learning what their third graders had to do on a standardized test. The mandatory exam's essay portion asked kids to tell one of their secrets, then explain why it was difficult to keep. A Department of Education spokesman confirmed that yes, they wanted the kids to write out their deepest and darkest secret, but -- not to worry -- it wouldn't affect their scores. But the students' parents are more concerned about what other areas of their lives could be affected. "Some children will be writing things family members and parents would have rather not revealed," one dad said. "If my children had said, 'It's none of your darn business,' I would've been OK with it."

I know I wouldn't want any of my children to be aske d that. Suppose a kids doesn't reveal any secrets & instead wtites out some murder & molestation fantsy. Can you imagine the state agencies that could be involved & the wrongfull arrests & investigations that could & would be launched, because a child was bored & didn't want to reveal their personal info. Or worse imagine a child who is questioning their own sexuality & just follows directions & outs thmeself unintentionally...

I see nothing but downsides with questions like this.
 
damn i wish someone had asked me that in my time. think of the trouble u coulda caused for the teacher whose guts you hated!! hahahahaahahahahahaah
 
I know you're jokeing, I'm surprised some winger hasn't gone crazy & started accusing you of all kinds of stuff already.
 
That requirement is completely inappropriate. For the reasons you state, and for flagrant violation of privacy...of the child and the family.

naw my kids learned early on ya can't trust the man & always demand dad or a lawyer if anybody wants any info ;-)
 
That's a terrible questiion to ask. It's plain out predatorial. And the way some schools get the poor kids so hysterical over the tests in the days before....and now for a kid to have this question before him and know that his score is so crucial (if the school engaged in that sort of thing) Just awful.
 
Well if you are pushing the "collective" you have to break down the population's "individualism" and a good way to do that is to psychologically cow them and a good way to do that is by forcing them to admit their secrets and fears so the "collective" can use it to control them. It fits with your socialist agenda so I can't for the life of me figure out why this doesn't overjoy you...
 
That DoE are idiots. What if the kid hasn't got a secret to tell, do they get zero points? Forcing kids to tell their "secrets" is, imho, morally wrong. Say the kid has a "secret", told to them by a friend, that they've promised never to tell anyone else - they're being encouraged to be "word breakers", and, again, imho, a person is as good as their word.

How many kids will make up a "secret" that will highly embarrass their parents, or others, or, even get the police involved?

Well that is a totalitarian fascist way to get the people.

Basically a republican plan.
 
This is the indication of the Liberal hand in our education and it is part of the reason that I took my kids out of Public Schools and put them into private schools and then home school. It is wrong to try to ferret out what's going on in a kid's life by asking sneaky questions in a standardized test like this. It has been happening for years and, trust me, is the result of Liberal control of the schools. When I was a teacher and saw stuff like this, I saw exactly who was doing it and where it was coming from and they told us why it was there. I disagreed with it then and I still disagree with doing that sort of thing.

It is part of the reason I moved FROM being a Liberal to being Conservative. That sort of thing wasn't able to pass through my conscience unchecked.
