In California Rob (Meathead) Reiner is pushing this as a stepping stone to run for office.

It's not enough they have our kids all day long for 20 years. Now they want them as toddlers.

"Prepares them for kindergarten." Idiots. That's what kindergarten is for -- to prepare them for first grade.

The socialists won't stop until they own them from day one.

I was told by my daughter's principle that my younger gifted daughter could not skip kindergarten but could skip 1st grade, because kindergarten is sooooo important.
BULL.
This child knows everything her sister has been presented in kindergarten (the older one knew it all anyway) and will have done two years in preschool. I am truly stuck here. Homeschooling is looking better and better.
Give me back my tax money and let me choose how my children are educated. Nothing is free.

The socialists own studies, done 50 years ago, prove that pre-school and kindergarten are useless for the purpose of preparing children for school. They proved conclusivly that by the second grade there was no difference whatsoever in student learning between a child who attended kindergarten and a child who did not.

Six-year olds learn so quickly that kindergarten is useless for preparing a child for school.

The only purpose of any kind of government school before first grade that I can see, is for indoctrination purposes. They sell it to parents as child care.

This has been a common strategy throughout history. Get them while their young to more thoroughly brainwash them.

I know what you mean. Am I wrong , I thought being a child is the best time of your life. You can do all the "kid" stuff and have no worries for a couple of years. My grandson is so smart, funny, easy going, loving. ect I could go on all night. I'm dreading the day he "has" to start school. never mind getting him ready that early. Its going to ruin him as it is. Hes soo sweet. Now I want him to stay that way. I can't say it enough.
