A teacher in Florida is being investigated after parents, including a school board member, complained about a woke Disney film she showed in class that included LGBT content.
During an interview about this on CNN, she said the quiet part out loud, claiming that parents’ rights are gone once their child is in the public school system.

Florida teacher defiant after showing ‘woke’ Disney movie in class: Parents rights ‘are gone’ in public schoolA Florida public school teacher under fire for showing a film with a gay character to her young students suggested that parents give up their rights when they send them to public schools.Jenna Barbee, a Hernando County fifth-grade teacher, defended her decision to show her class the 2022 Disney animated film “Strange World” for an earth science lesson. After parent and member of the school board Shannon Rodriguez complained, however, the teacher is now being investigated by the school district and state Department of Education for showing the film with an openly gay character…But Barbee argued that students are already having conversations about same-sex relationships among themselves and on social media and that it would be impossible for teachers to stop them. She said a parent’s right to shield their child from LGBTQ conversations is “gone” when that child attends public school.”What she’s missing and what these parents are missing, is they’re not in the school system. That just shows me she’s ignorant and has not come and volunteered at all,” Barbee said on “CNN This Morning” on Tuesday. “These conversations, these doors, they’re open. These students have one-to-one devices. The amount of things they’re able to pull up that we have to shut down – these conversations, these doors that she’s talking about – that’s telling you I’m stripping her rights as a parent, those rights are gone when your child is in the public school system because there are students talking about these things.”

First, parents do not lose their rights when their children enter public schools, and the fact that some people on the left believe this is part of a larger problem.
Also, the left pushed so far for so long, that parents are now hypersensitive to this issue. They are expecting it and watching for it. There will be more cases like this one.
