In addressing criticism of the Common Core national education standards, a panelist at the Center for American Progress (CAP), a liberal think tank, said critics were a tiny minority who opposed standards altogether, which was unfair because the children belong to all of us.
Reville continued, Again, the argument about where it came from I think privileges certain sort of fringe voices about federalism and states rights, and things of that nature, when really what were doing at the national level here now, state by state, is what a lot of our states thought made sense individually.
Why should some towns and cities and states have no standards or low standards and others have extremely high standards when the children belong to all of us and would move [to different states in their educational lives]?

Children belong to their parents until they are 18 years old. Some exceptions may apply.

As with most leftist jargon, the rationale for CC sounds good, at least on the surface. But the truth is coming out and more and more of us don’t like what we see.

The Children belong to all of us?
So how come so many get aborted every year against the wishes of a majority?

Democrats abort their own children, and then demand control of everyone else's?
