(The Christian Post) President Joe Biden is facing criticism for suggesting to teachers that their students are “like your” children and not “somebody else’s” when they are in their classrooms at a time when parental rights in education are receiving heightened attention nationwide.
Biden made remarks at the 2022 National and State Teachers of the Year Event in the East Room of the White House Wednesday.
While he spent most of his speech recalling the impact his teachers had on him as a child and highlighting his wife Jill’s role as a teacher, the president weighed in on what he described as American teachers becoming “the target of the culture wars.”
