Public Schools = Horrible Evil
Those who read here regularly (thank you!) know my position on public schools (aka government monopoly schools). They stink. I mean, they really, really stink. They're garbage. I know, YOUR schools is okay, the rest are bad. No, I'm sorry, but YOUR public school is crap, too. If you want a very long read about the actual history of schools, check this one out. It's LONG, but it's accurate.
I know some of you are school teachers, or know school teachers, and you're quite sure that they are doing all they can. Well, you can put lipstick on a pig, but it's still a pig. "Our problem in understanding forced schooling stems from an inconvenient fact: that the wrong it does from a human perspective is right from a systems perspective." In other words, schools are about the SYSTEM, not people -- and therefore it destroys people. Here's a couple recent news stories that help illustrate how bad public schools have gotten (they're NOT the school you went to years ago): In California, two-parent families are banned. Seriously. Any person who is sending their child to ANY public school in California is doing a great disservice to that child. And yes, it's EVERY school there now. It's not about "protecting" gays, it's about openly discriminating against heterosexuals and two-parent families. Your children WILL be taught that they might be a different sex, despite what they know. Your children there will share bathrooms and locker rooms, regardless of their gender. And using the words "Mom" and "Dad" is basis for a lawsuit. California is lost. Keep in mind: it's about the SYSTEM, not people. And since it's about keeping kids in the system (so the system gets cash from other government agencies), if you DARE to take your child out once they're in the system, your children may be taken from you! I expect to see much more of this in California if people start running from the discriminatory system. I strongly suggest that anyone with children have a "bug out bag" with cash and clothes to flee, should social services EVER show up at your door. These are no longer conspiracy theories, they're happening right now. In addition, another trend in public schools is the forced medication of your children, without parental permission or knowledge. After all, 11-year olds needs to have sex, right? That's what some schools are claiming. Oh, and are you ready for the views of those who voted to encourage your 11-year old to have sex?If my daughter were not able to talk with me about something, if she couldn't reach me for whatever reason, to keep her safe and healthy, I would want to make sure she had access to those resources from trusted adults. Richard Verrier
Let me interpret what that actually means: "If I suck so bad as a parent that my child won't talk to me about something as important as sex, I think she should talk to some strange adult who will encourage her to have sex. I'm glad that these strangers, who are government employees, and therefore completely trustworthy, but who might be pedophiles, will encourage my daughter to have sex often, perhaps even with them." And much, much worse is what's also implied by this statement: "In addition, not only do I trust complete stranger adults encouraging MY child to have promiscuous sex at age 11, I DEMAND that every other adult in the state of Maine equally trust random, unknown adults to encourage every one of their children to have open sex at age 11, too." Mr. Verrier, you are an evil, horrible person. I don't want ANY 11-year olds having sex, and you are horrible to demand that I allow ALL 11-year old girls to have rampant sex. At the same time, religion will NOT BE permitted in these horrible institutions called "public schools." You see, if you're a government employee, you're simply not permitted to have ANY religion other than the ACLU and government-approved religion of atheism. When you subject your child to a government school, you ARE giving up nearly ALL rights to that child. That's not exaggeration. Various courts have ruled that the school is allowed to act as a parent -- and ANY decision the school makes cannot be overridden by any parent. Public schools are beyond repair. They are beyond hope. I implore you, if you care about your child, you will not let them into such evil places. Again, it's about the SYSTEM, not about your child, education, or ANYTHING else. Update: The government has "backed down" in attacking the homeschooling parents -- but left them with VERY ominous warnings: "We will be watching you." Anita Nicoli, I suggest you pack up and RUN from that state RIGHT NOW. Social services will not surrender so easily. I suggest you head to New Hampshire as quickly as you can (and so should anyone else looking for freedom). Van Helsing puts a face on this nightmare.

I'm telling you, they are beyond hope. The "System" simply cannot be salvaged.

I've been seething over this for days now. I just wish I could get people to see beyond, "Well, MY school is okay." It's not. Seriously.

You are welcome.
My friend (Kim) has just started home schooling her two younger sons...she pulled them from the public schools after she realized how bad the sex education classes are AND that she, as the parent, had no say in the curriculum; once she saw that she requested her boys not attend; she was told she had no choice on the matter. Her sons would have to attend in order to get the "credits" required to move on. Mind you, these are elementary and middle school aged boys.
The crap she went through to get them out of school was something else as well. But it's done..and she is teaching them what she feels is important and vital. Three weeks into it and her sons are already improving in all areas.

Homeschooling IS the best option -- even if it's "difficult" or someone can't afford it. It simply is -- and yes, the schools will very much oppose that because they lose cash when students leave.

Ogre, check out this:

And follow the link under the picture of the girl.
We see the results of our society where girls are sexualized- and somehow they are blamed.
Sorry for the long link...

I absolutely agree with your post. Unfortunately, I'm the choir you're preaching too...lol...but I wanted to let you know I agree.
And, Anita SHOULD run from that state right now.

Yes, Raven, there are even more people who honestly WANT to force all children to have sex at age 11, no matter what parents want. It's ALL about control -- total and absolute control.
Thanks for stopping by and dropping me a line, Holly!

Some of the things schools do are absolutely stupid. I completely agree.
But public schools were founded for a reason. There are some really shoddy parents out there. You mightn't think so, but I think if you remember your own days in school, you'll remember kids who had parents who didn't give a hoot. We can't write those kids off. As a society, we need to educate them. And protect them to our best ability.
If an 11 year old is having sex, and you do abstinence counseling and tell them it's a bad idea and they still have sex, well, tell me what's wrong with providing contraceptives. That school district (Portland Maine) had 17 known middle school pregnancies last year. If even 1 of those poor kids had been prevented, it would be worth the program.

No. Public schools were NOT founded to educate the poor. Anyone who wants to know exactly why public schools were founded, please follow the very first link in the post. It had NOTHING to do with educating poor people -- or even actually education (aka learning).
Do you think poor kids didn't learn before public schools? They learned a LOT more and they learned a LOT better. EVERYONE was MUCH, MUCH, MUCH more educated before public schools. Not a little more educated, TREMENDOUSLY more educated. Public schools are DESTROYING learning!
What's wrong? It's the school deciding THEY want to give permission and openly ENCOURAGE someone's child to have sex. That's really, really, wrong and evil. NO ONE should be telling 11-year old girls that sex is okay. Giving them prescription medications that remove consequences from sex is telling them it's okay.

I actually heard someone who was at the meeting in Maine. They are NOT encouraging sex. They are using the birth control as a last ditch effort to help prevent another generation of lost kids.
and I said nothing about educating the poor. Unless you mean poor in spirit. I said kids who don't have parents who can teach them or parents who care. Like it or not, that is a significant portion of people.

Just because they claim it's not encouraging sex, doesn't make it so. When you tell an ELEVEN YEAR OLD girl that you're giving her something to make her not pregnant, that IS not only approval, but encouragement to continue that action.
It's sort of like if you punch me in the face, and I give you $50. At the same time, I tell you, please don't do that, because I don't approve. But each time you punch me in the face, I'm going to give you $50. Now, do I "approve" of you punching me in the face? Gee, I said that I didn't approve...
You can use the word "poor" whichever way you like, but the results are the same. ALL people were much, much more educated before public schools came around. That's factual information, not an opinion. There's reams of data around to prove that.
