Badrose & others check out Subway story....

Update 5/28/08: Subway apologizes....

Badrose said I made her have to post because of the Subway/home schooler story. I'm glad to know I had something to do with getting her to the keyboard because we've missed her ... I'll try to do it again! Badrose read the post about Subway snubbing home schoolers and humorously concluded that, for the first time, Subway had left a bad taste in her mouth! She also included American Thinker's thoughts, also along a humorous line, which you should check out. Carl Kilo took note that Badrose was ticked off.

Whackette has a different view as she defends Subway and throws out a few well-padded punches at a couple of fellow bloggers ... along with a dose of humor. Sorry, Whackette; I see what you are saying but still feel it discriminatory because "fitness" is needed in local parks and playgrounds, too. Besides, from my (limited) experience with public schools when my son was in grades K-1 (before being removed in grade 2 to be home educated through grade 12), public school teachers withheld recess and playground time as a punishment when someone in the class acted up ... i.e., one or two misbehaving students caused the entire class to miss recess. I was a room mom and school tutor; I saw it happen over and over. Perhaps the schools just need to encourage teachers to allow students outside on the playground.

Scott's Morning Brew wrote that home schoolers need not apply to Subway ... and Shaun Kenney said this made Quizno's his choice of sandwich shop. Leslie Carbone adds her humorous post as she laughs at the grammatical/ typo error of "Untied" States.

Meanwhile, the controversy continues....
