So I assume that you have never told your child no before, then? When they want to touch a hot stove, eat an entire gallon of ice cream, or paint on the walls, you give complete deference to them, because to restrict them in any way would be an unforgivable infringement of their intrinsic liberties, is that right?

Context matters - situations dont become identical just because you can switch out a few nouns to make an edgy analogy.

Absolutely, and the context here is that these teachers have the absolute authority to say no and impose their will on children in pursuit of their indoctrination.

It’s hardly edgy: given their expressly stated goals, it’s alarmingly relevant.
