Come on. Coercion? Curriculum is used to coordinate efforts and to make sure jurisdictions are meeting certain thresholds. Conforming to what? Learning to think critically? Learning to read? To do arithmetic? Learning to use the inquiry method? Such horrible things to “conform” to.

Still coercion - do you like being coerced ? I don’t

How are my students, or my four children who attend school being coerced?

Strong words have implications

Coerce - to persuade (an unwilling person) to do something by using force or threats.

Is that what you think happens in schools?

Much lover brother - we all need to deeply observe and understand the current system even when it’s uncomfortable. We, I, are all deeply conditioned

Did they have a choice to go or not?

In many countries homeschooling is outright banned and government forces children to go to school. For example, it is this way in Germany, Sweden, Norway, Austria, Greece, France, Finland, Spain, Belgium, Italy, Portugal and many others. In some of those places they literally take away your kids if you do not conform.
