It is disturbing; families are the building block of any society, and American families are disappearing and being replaced by others from different cultures. As a conservative I don’t particularly mind, but some of these cultures will never assimilate into what we used to call “the American way”. I’m glad that while my children attend schools with large numbers of foreigners, most of their friends (100% of the foreigners) have intact families.
Some Americans use the fact that they’d be dropping off their children like that as a reason to simply never have any; that just makes the demographic problem worse.
I just wonder how many years we have left as a nation....
Each of the people which I have pinged commented on the parenting of these youngsters.
While there are many contributing factors, our government's socialist-entitlement schooling has been a major contributing factor in the disintegration of the American family. There is a reason that Bill Ayers ( a terrorist and open communist) chose education for his career. And...He had lots of mentoring help to get to his position from other educators of my father's generation ( born 1913.)
Obviously, this communist destruction of our culture has been going on for a more than a century, but we are now seeing the full-blown infection.
When schools are utterly and completely godless since the 60s and we now have grandparents, parents, and even great parents who are graduates of these schools, what do we expect?
Oh...And our government's socialist-schools before the 60s haven't been that great, at best they merely nodded to God. My grandmother (born 1894) attended secular government schools that merely winked at God on occasion. And... Before her children were fed a generic and lukewarm Protestantism. ( What does Christ do with the lukewarm? He spits them out of His mouth!)
