Get her out of public school!

I have a daughter, she's 4 1/2 and an only child so I have to be mindful of spoiling her ... anyway, she counts to 100 and wants to learn about money. So we sat down and discussed, what's on a penny. Who is Abe Lincoln. Where is the Lincoln Memorial (on back of penny) etc with ALL the coins. I also emphasized "In God we Trust" is on most of our currency and showed her. Next week we tackle dollar bills, five dollar bills etc.

The point is she sees FIRST hand that God is more important than money and the role Christian men played in out Judeo Christian rooted country. BTW, she also goes to a private Christian school where the Bible is studied, unapologetically.

It's a wonderful school. For Thanksgiving the entire school makes their own authentic feast with foods the Pilgrim had for their feast. Of course Easter and Christmas are also celebrated. When they are YOUNG is the time to put this into their little heads.

"Get her out of public school!"

Not really an option with my /niece/.

The reason my wife and I took her to Disney is because her parents suck. They wouldn't have a clue regarding her education.
