No doubt to fill their young minds with ideas of socialism, homosexuality, and drugs.

The primary purpose of every one of these school programs in NYC is to make sure the children of the city’s underclass spend as little time at home as possible.

Can’t start too soon to turn your children against you and into Commies at the same time.

Right.

Old Marxist method of mind control. Start with the children.

Why not just set up breeding farms, a lot cheaper.

It’s NOT free.

The indoctrination of young children cannot be tolerated. No federal funds for this crap. Just for starters.

De Blasio said the city will spend $177 million annually on the program by 2021, but will need another $700 million from the state and federal governments to fully fund the classes.

Asked if it was realistic to count on state and federal funds, de Blasio said he did not want to be “held back by our current reality.”

"Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it." KJV Proverbs 22:6. Yep, even the commies know this, they are getting them young.

I cannot believe sometimes how many people fail to see the grave danger of government education. Parents are responsible for educating children, not the government. I have said for years that conservatives will never completely stamp out the scourge of leftism until “public” schools are abolished once and for all.

This isn’t “school.” It’s daycare. And more teachers for the teacher’s unions.

No doubt to fill their young minds with ideas of socialism, homosexuality, and drugs.

Deputy New York City schools chancellor Josh Wallack said the preschool program for 3-year-olds will focus on social and emotional development as well as language skills that will lay the foundation for learning to read.

Gone are the days when a kid started the first grade when FIVE years old. No Kindergarten back then. We still did well.

This will be a great blessing to the kids’ moms. Now the moms will be able to lounge on the sofa in front of the TV all day without interruption.
