It would be nice to see some of our public schools get similar common sense. Sort of like letting kids play with dogs and sleep with them. They may get a few minor infections but it overall strengthens their immune systems and makes them healthier.

Please, please spread this around to everyone you know. Our education system is at the core of what’s wrong in this country. We need the House, the Senate, and the WHut, but control of the education system is crucial.

This fascinating article shines light on the liberal idiocy that runs our schools.

Please pass this on.

Wow, letting noisy active little boys be noisy active little boys instead of making them into quiet little girls actually is a good thing! Who’d thunk it. how about those folks with common sense.

Next, they might add dodge-ball.

School-teaching nuns recognized for decades the value of a little steam-letting recess.

I think it is more like burning up your testosterone outside running and jumping and then when you come back inside, you are ready to sit still and use your mind.

Feed your dog right and they can shake off the infections they pick up from the dirty little beasts in no time.

This is reminiscent of what we did as kids 60+ years ago in Chicago: Riding our bikes without helmets down the steepest hills we could find; climbing trees or sometimes roofs; building “forts” out of abandoned Christmas trees; climbing the “Rocky Mountains,” a lot filled with jagged, broken cemetery monuments; playing games involving pocket knives (can't remember the name of a game but old timers will know); spinning tops and yo-yos; shooting marbles; firing cap guns; all fraught with some dangers, with most of us surviving intact.But this was outside the playground and bullying did exist there then as now.

Just so you know, and not trying to be the spelling police, but to help in searches:

This is unsurprising. Some cities have eliminated their traffic signs and signals and there is less speeding, fewer accidents.

German town abolishes traffic lights and codes. Accidents are now almost non-existent!
