Fully agree,  in fact coercion should have no place in restricting our freedoms,  can someone say 'I see you as a rat but will stand corrected'?

I thought the element of identifying one's self is made by the individual, not by another.

I agree entirely, but do consider the teacher’s position too. Whatever they say risks being recorded, or filmed and then pushed through the distorting lens of social media.  So, many teachers are now fearful of engaging in discussion of sensitive subjects, for fear of trial by Facebook. It’s easier, and generally safer to stick to some sort of party line.

So they should be!

 

Stick to math, science and English, and all will be well.

 

Genital mutilation, and sex orgy fads and practises, should be off limits in schoolrooms.

 

Lack of professional qualification alone should prohibit it!
