Screenshot from the article: "Everyone has an opinion: One father of a Year 9 daughter wondered on Twitter last week, at the start of the 2023 school year, why she was assigned the "boring" 'Animal Farm', 'Romeo and Juliet' and 'Wuthering Heights'. (His original post was so flooded with responses, he became overwhelmed and deleted it.)"
#RomeoAndJuliet & #WutheringHeights are boring, they are just so enragingly held up as #RomanticIdeals & really, we have two horny teenagers who kill themselves & two selfish people who destroy everyone! #AustralianCurriculum #EnglishReading #Schools
