Wow-—so good to get children out of these artificial indoctrination centers where their minds and virtue are rotted.

Wouldn’t it be nice for children if they could have time alone, to think and read and digest truth/real life experiences and have UNSTRUCTURED time so they ACTUALLY learn to “think critically” and have agency—can think for themselves. Children HAVE To be “BORED” to be creative and learn agency....you can’t keep them entertained all the time—programming them and keeping them so distracted they can’t “think”.

Think how minds like Jefferson and Ben Franklin and Jane Austin were made——NEVER in Marxist, socialized GROUP indoctrination centers which embeds envy, hate, and “group-think” and puerility since all their role models are their same age. (Prussian system of “edukation” was created by Marxists to destroy agency and virtue formation in children-—make them into “’group-(non)-thinkers” and to destroy individualism and virtue formation. Without virtue formation, they remain puerile and slaves for life. Agency is ONLY formed by UNSTRUCTURED interaction with others where you can exercise FREEDOM of ASSOCIATION-—not forced, artificial systems that shame people for Natural instincts.

Fake concen: Democrats usually forget about their field hands after elections, until a month before the next election—unless they lose.

That’s why parents need to pick up their children at school and take them home.

I was always so happy to be home when my five children arrived home. Although sometimes they needed to be very persistent to get my attention since that was the time of day I helped in the child care center I owned.

Dick the dick has had 20 years to get his poor Chicago kids food and has failed. Maybe the voting parents ought to vote in some new democrat dick and see if the new dick does any better.

Stupid Chicago dicks.

No one is stopping the Loving Rat Party people of Illinois from funding yet more babysitting for gangbangers and illegals.

These after school programs are “free dinner” programs. These kids are getting 3 FREE meals a day plus mommy and daddy (daddies) are collecting welfare etc etc
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
This is a perfect microcosm of the welfare state. It’s what happens when Democrats have an unlimited supply of taxpayer money to buy the votes of deadbeat parents.

The dirty little secret here is that the modern secular state has a two-part strategy for dealing with its permanent black underclass:

1. Pay Planned Parenthood to abort as many of them as possible. Harvest the organs if possible so they can be given to "more deserving" people.

2. Implement school programs that remove black kids from their parents for longer and longer stretches of the day. You can count on this: the next step for the secular state is to use taxpayer money to fund dorms for kids from the day they show up in preschool.

I'm a member of Trump's inner circle. I'm not supposed to reveal this, but the actual plan is to round the children up and send them off to camps. So that the rich will get richer.

Yes, it frees up their EBT and WIC dollars to buy the best cuts of meats, expensive seafood, and 8 gallons of milk at a time to distribute to the whole block. Those are the people with the brimming carts in the grocery store, not working people.

I live in suburb of Chicago. This subsidized after school program by tax payers is totally waste. European whites had tried much more than this in Africa during colonial times. It did not a thing racially. Something inherently put in each of us by GOD is not going to change

“The kids went home, connected with their friends and came up with their own “after school programs”.”

That’s what the kids in Chicago do also; it’s just that their “clubs” are shooting clubs and the prey are each other.

It’s actually an after school babysitting program.

My after-school program was walking home from school. Until I got a job. Then it was going to work.
