 Toddlers to be taught about human rights
Toddlers to be taught about human rights
In a scheme condemned as an "absurd" waste of time, nurseries are teaching 3-year olds that people across the world live different lives but everyone has a right to food, water and shelter. Instead of playing and singing they are learning that the Giant from Jack & The Beanstalk had a right to be bad and therefor was a victim of Jack. picked by 2manyusernames 2 months ago

 Free Speech - Only In America
Free Speech - Only In America
Freedom of Speech is one of America's greatest rights. Sadly it is a very rare freedom. Many countries - even countries you'd expect to be freedom-lovers say no to free speech. Oh you have the right to say nice sweet things, but you can't say anything mean or negative, anything that might hurt a group's feelings.
