I beg to differ

Did you know that it is an absolute scientific fact that dinosaurs turned into birds?
By the time your child goes to school they have been gently primed for all the wacko stuff.
I beg to differ
We home schooled.
Besides driving kids and their parents absolutely nuts, the public schools’ main objective is to turn kids into community activists.
Home school them or send them to a private school that you can trust.
Most parents don't give a damn...that is how the country has moved to the brink of collapse.
How about this, do your damn job as a parent and tell them the truth.
Parents pump hundreds of millions into propaganda flicks like ‘The Lorax’ at the box office, and then are shocked when that money is used to promote marxism/communism to their children. Idiots.
Home school
As the Nazi national socialists and all communists dictators do, they first brainwash the children and then move on to the parents as we see in the communist run public school system today. The little brownshirts will work harder for much less as their government leaders throw them a loaf of bread to keep them alive. And they will love their masters and feel good about having nothing to show for all their labor.
+1 — Lack of parenting is THE main reason that kids are being indoctrinated.
Start taking away their privileges to use things which consume energy like TV, computers etc. Explain how toys and such require energy to be manufactured. After a while I think they will get the point.
Tell them they can ride their bike to every place they wish to go.
When they tell you to do it respond, "sorry, I don't take instructions from the ignorant."
They want to get on a website? Sorry no. I thought you wanted to "save the planet".
Yep, I am taking away all your electronic toys and unscrewing the light bulbs in your room.
You're hungry? Have a raw potato. Cook it? You wouldn't want to use any energy would you?
Make them feel stupid rather then "oh so smart".
And stupid should hurt.
Maybe try talking to your kids for several hours on a daily basis and give them the truth about the world around them, rather than continue to let the government raise them. Or make a personal sacrifice and homeschool them.
We cut out television and home schooled. Problem solved!
My youngest came home one day and stated, “I’m becoming a vegetarian so don’t serve me any meat”. I agreed so we fed the family the usual fare but left the meat off of his plate he seemed to begin regretting his choice. What finally got him back into the carnivore club was a trip to Outback.
So if the kid seems serious about green stuff then “save the planet” for him by eliminating TV, computer time and automobile rides.
I explained to my kids early on, in terms they could understand, the difference between pagans and Christians. The difference between the Creator and the creation and the fact that those who don’t believe in God tend to worship some aspect of the creation. I said: Don’t do that.
I took my grandson to see “Lorax” not knowing what it was about and I was horrified.
Yes. That’s the approach I took. When the kids came home and said they had to watch An Inconvenient Truth in class, I took the time over the next several weeks to explain the fallacy of man-made climate change, and the reasons liberals were pushing the idea.
I never missed a chance to reinforce the case against the enviro-whackos, including copying articles linked from FR, on the issue.
I think my kids understand that it’s good to be a responsible steward of the land, without all the enviro-whacko extremism.
