All a parent would have to do is send a note saying they didn't want their child to watch the speech. Instead, some people chose to let their children get a day behind in their lessons. Basically, the speech was a pep talk to the students. What's so bad about that? But, come tomorrow, the parents will probably send notes to school saying their child was sick, which will be a lie. What message does that send to the students? You may not like the man, but what was so wrong with the speech itself? Some people are so narrow minded and afraid. What are you REALLY teaching your kids by your actions? I can’t believe some people would keep their children home for fear of them hearing this speech.
