How can I defend my daughters position in her school?
I came to this section with this question because I do accept creation by a creator as my choice.
My 13 year old daughter was being taught that man evolved from the monkey. Of course at home we have different concepts. However I did tell my daughter to just accept what they teach and learn it to pass the exams first then set it aside.
In the class the teacher ask my daughter to give her view on the subject. She replied, "Sir, I will accept here in class the fact that man did evolve from monkeys because I do want to pass this course. I do set here and see the evidence before me in what you are teaching. When I do look at you I am reminded of my trip to the zoo with my family and did visit the monkey house. Do you still have a lot of close relatives there in the cages geting paid to eat the bananas?"
The teacher got mad and kicked my daughter out of class which I do not understand. All she did was accept what was taught as a fact and did affirm her belief in the teaching.
I understand that your personal belief systems don't gel with what's being taught in the class, that is something that you should talk to the teacher/principal with. If your daughter is in public education than there might be a rule against discussing evolution and religion in the classroom, you should check it out.
As for not understanding why your daughter got herself removed the class, do you really not see the error of her judgement? She compared her teacher's family to that of a family of monkeys from the local zoo, that is insultive, and she knew that. You are also not in the classroom, you don't know the tone that was used.
I really do think that what your daughter said was inappropriate and disrespectful, and I do believe that both you and her realize this. A teacher is someone who needs to be respected in his/her classroom, the students need to understand that they can not humiliate or defimate their character because there are 30+ other students that need to have trust that their teacher is compitent.
If this issue is a concern to you then I would suggest a teacher/parent meeting. I work for a public school board and I can tell you that the subject matter would be frowned upon in our classrooms, in fact it would probably be grounds for an investigation of curriculum.
While I commend you for teaching your daughter to just bear through it, I think the best thing to do at this point is discuss her options with the school. If it goes against your personal teachings, and find it offensive then you need to let them know, perhaps they can create a make up assingment.
