If we try to frame it as sympathy for those who have been harassed and or children who have died, then we need to add Abortion Awareness Day, School Massacre Awareness Day, Murdered Children Day, Abused Children Day, Starving Children Day, etc.

Get them started then. The only reason that the DoS exists is because someone worked to make it happen. If you want a day of silence for another cause, all you have to do is start it. 🤷

I don’t want these multiple days. Respectfully, my point was that the DOS has no place in the schools, because it is not right to focus on just one area of violence (even though I still don’t think that is what the day is really about). I don’t think a school is a place to have a day dedicated to a different person’s individual cause each day. If it is part of the curriculum, that is one thing. For example, if a teacher in a religion class wants to dedicate a day to the 4000 children murdered each day by their mothers via abortion, that would be fine. The DOS is not about curriculum. It is about political activists furthering their cause within the schools to normalize homosexuality among vulnerable and impressionable youth.
 
by high school, most people are pretty sure about their beliefs anyway. It’s not like they are doing DoS in elementary school.
 
For those who are asking, there is a Day of Silent Solidarity for students who want to make a pro-life statement. Stand True is the place to sign up to participate and to download fliers to pass out. You can see pictures and read testimonials from past participants at that site, too.

I won’t argue with that.

You said - “by high school, most people are pretty sure about their beliefs anyway.”

They are only sure of what they know at the time. Most are poorly catechized so they have no clue. Their journey has just started.
