Gotta be honest: If a large reptile threatened to kill my hypothetical child, I might be worried, too. Granted, I’d be worried if ANYONE did that. And angry. VERY angry. God have mercy on anyone who threatens my hypothetical child!
Lady, your kid is better off getting torn to shreds by Reptoids than he’d ever be in an American public school. Seriously, Im surprisedy you guys dont just release your kids into the woods to be raised by wolves.
Imagining the next strip.
Mom: How was your first day at school, sweety?
George: Ya… it was great. I’ve had 6 times the death threats. 3 kids were revealed to have had a small cache of weapons in their lockers. And I’m pretty sure 1 kid is starting a cult because he keeps insisting I “partake of the kool-aid.” Thanks a HEAP for saving me from the “evil lizards”, MOM. At least I’ll be murderdeathed by my own species.
To be fair, public schools can be a bastion of knowledge and hope. http://www.bxscience.edu/ – This is a public school. 7 Nobel Laureates in Physics from a public school…
So she’s exposing him to organised religion and public education, but she draws the line at the potentially violent parents of other students? She has weird priorities. The latter probably certainly won’t actually kill or damage him, but the first two sure as hell will. In fact, physical violence or death might actually be more merciful. Definitely quicker.
Hey now, at my public school they had regular weapons checks as you entered the school. Any kid caught without weapons was immediately put aside and then given enough arms to give him a fair chance at surviving the day.
Not that anyone will see this since it’s posted late, but speaking as a National Merit Scholar who got a full ride scholarship to a university and now makes a career acting like he’s smart while helping others, I’d say public school did all right be me.

it’s not the kids who bring weapons that you have to wory about it’s the kids who were like me that could use anything not nailed down AS a weapon
…Am I the only one that went to public school and found it to be just fine?
