Get Your Kids Out Of Public Schools

My widowed daughter-in-law pulled the boys out of public school when they were in the second and fourth grade respectively. They had a much better, broader solid education than they could ever have had where they were. At least nobody was unwilling to discuss why both boys were in the honors program and the oldest failing because of being deliberately set to fail by his teacher. I use that term teacher very generously, with the afterthought that what goes around comes around.

Me, too! Turning one's children over to government education is child abuse.

[B Knotts]

Sexual Education and many other reasons like the exclusion of God and Moral teaching.

Those are the biggies, but don't forget:

• The promotion of marxism
• Advocacy of environmental extremism and chicken-littleism
• Emotional appeals over logic and science
• Inability to teach proper spelling, grammar, math, etc.
• The absolute crushing of the individual spirit in favor of collectivist values
• Victimology as the chief ethic

And, I left out the most spirit-crushing thing of them all:

POLITICAL CORRECTNESS

I think we are getting this box nailed down. Hand me another hammer!

God Bless You, Dr. Dobson!!!

As a substitute teacher, I see all the Left-Wing, Secular Humanist, Revisionism that is used as Propaganda.

Things such as villifying the original founders of America, claiming that we killed the Indians, villifying our heros. Junk Science, Global Warming, Evolution, etc. are presented as fact. Multiculturalism is huge, and it attempts to tell America's children that the U.S. has no common culture. "Character Assemblies" present Secular Humanist viewpoints in which the children are singing, "You can't tell me what to do.......What is right is what's in my head", etc.

A good percentage of the teachers are lousy, lacking education, have no drive, or are Left-Wingers themselves. Many of them do not see the ardent Propaganda. It's so obvious, yet so many are blind to it.

When I have children, I'm sending them to a private Christian School that I have throughly checked out.

[Khepera]

I had a Teacher upon discovering that we homeschool say to me "I just could not do that to my children" He made it sound like we where guilty of child abuse.

bttt

[FreedomFriend]

Is he a secular humanist, trying to cover his own rear, or his is basically ignorant?

[FreedomFriend]

I will say this, though. If I see any propaganda, and it is a part of the students' assignment, I make it known to tell the children the truth. I really do not care if the school says that I cannot teach. I'd rather have a clean conscience, as opposed to allow myself to teach the garbage.

Don't get me wrong. I do let the children do the assignment, mainly because the teacher has requested it. However, when we're going over it, I will use logic, facts, and truth to tell the children why the textbook is lying. I'll say, "However, for this assignment, you're going to have to write this down".

Sometimes, if the students have free-time, I'll do my own thing. For example, I'll go over American symbols such as the flag, the Bald Eagle, etc., and what they represent. Furthermore, I'll talk about American history. Other times I'll talk about America's history under God. I'll usually envelop this around the coinage, "In God We Trust".

Other times, I'll go on to math and start teaching long-division (something we learned in third grade), despite the fact that many fourth graders haven't yet begun to learn it. I'll give them many multiplication and division problems, etc.

I really care for the kids, and it makes me sick to my stomach what the school boards, teachers, etc. are doing to them.

Get Your Kids Out Of Public Schools

Yep. Period.

I actually attended a church where the pastor admonished the congregaton to send their children to public schools as "truth and light". He, of course, was very absorded in his own kids participation in P. school athletics. Garbage. One doesn't expose their kids to the trash in public schools and at the same time expect them to be moral sentries.

Here's a link to Dobson's March 28 remarks.

My kid goes to Catholic School

33 kids in class, yet ALL are good readers, all are passing math.

They study all the same core subjects as the government schools, PLUS religous education.

It's a great investment. (I just wish I could get my tax dollars back)

Charlotte Iserbyts book, "The Deliberate Dumbing Down of America" is one of the best reference books that you could have on your shelf, and I guarantee you it will not spend much time "on the shelf". The size of a Sears catalog and filled with the history and methods of the Reform. Well worth the investment. If you want to see the big picture, and we must in order to understand the scope of the REFORM of our nation, this book is a must.

Ulp! They moved the link already>

Here's a link to their archives. Just look for the March 28 interview.
