NH lawmaker rips parental involvement in education: 'Let the teachers teach, and shut up'
Fox News
A New Hampshire lawmaker sent an email claiming that parents were “incompetent teachers" in response to a legislation that would establish a parents' bill of rights.
"Do you know why children's results tanked during covid? Their parents were incompetent teachers. Do your children a favor, let the teachers teach, and shut up. You're clearly no professional," Hoyt responded. Joshua Q. Nelson is a reporter for Fox News Digital.
The parent took a screenshot of Hoyt's response and the image began circulating on social media. Joshua focuses on politics, education policy ranging from the local to the federal level, and the parental uprising in education.
American Federation for Children senior fellow Corey DeAngelis drew attention to Hoyt's message on Twitter and told Fox News Digital, "Representative Tommy Hoyt let the mask slip. These socialists think they know better than parents. They despise the very notion of parental rights because they really believe kids belong to the government" Joining Fox News Digital in 2019, he previously graduated from Syracuse University with a degree in Political Science and is an alum of the National Journalism Center and the Heritage Foundation's Young Leaders Program.
