Summary
Schools should be teaching kids how to think, not what to think. They should be modeling due process and critical thinking. And they should not be deciding which political causes justify skipping class.

| 0:00.0 | Across the country, schools are allowing students to leave class during the day to attend |
| 0:05.6 | so-called anti-ice protest. |
| 0:09.4 | Much of the media is celebrating these kids for exercising free speech. |

| 1:02.2 | would have to agree that's a tragic situation. The people that loved them and cared about them |

| 1:34.5 | But there's a third side. |
