However, the ThoughtExchange has devolved into chaos as many parents have begun using it to share political views. Hoping to separate the relevant thoughts from the bizarre and confusing, Dr. Smith just sent out a new ThoughtExchange just for parents to express their feelings about issues that have nothing to do with the previous Thought Exchange. Here is a random selection of these thoughts and their average ratings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>My daughter had a great day last Tuesday (2 stars)<\/li><li>what\u2019s the deal with tomatoes? are they a vegetable or a fruit?? this is tearing families apart!! (4 stars)<\/li><li>i love you, peter smith. (5 stars)<\/li><li>Stop teaching our kids trigonometry! That\u2019s a parent\u2019s job. Teachers should teach, not poison our children\u2019s minds.

Hopefully, the district will take the concerns of parents who contributed into consideration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In other news, Dr. Smith has sent out a new ThoughtExchange asking for feedback on his previous ThoughtExchanges. We are all anxiously waiting for the results.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Stop teaching our kids trigonometry! That\u2019s a parent\u2019s job.
