Critical Race Theory has no place in K-12 education because it is simply too controversial and will raise more issues than necessary. It is also too subjective to be relevant for K-12 students. It may be beneficial to have a one lecture on how there are individuals that identify outside of traditional he/him and she/her genders, but outside of that, nothing else should be taught. It can be an optional choice in college when students are mature enough to discern whether or not it actually makes sense to them. If taught to K-12 students, it can be deemed as child indoctrination.

Critical race theory and LGBT education are all too often opinionated lectures by leftist teachers who want to indoctrinate impressionable children. Opinions should be kept out of education.
There have been instances where teachers, influenced by their personal beliefs, have inserted subjective viewpoints into these topics, which can lead to a one-sided narrative. For example, in a school in California, parents raised concern over a teacher who was reportedly providing materials that heavily leaned towards a particular political ideology.

Most teachers strive for an unbiased presentation of information. The National Education Association emphasizes the importance of impartiality in teaching controversial issues. They recommend that teachers should ensure that all significant sides of a controversy are fairly represented and that they should not use their position to indoctrinate students to a particular point of view.
