It appears as though these “evironmental educators” could be setting these children up for some child “abuse.” When I was a kid, we went to school to learn, not to be brainwashed by Communists and Marxists.

...educators want children to "nag, pester, bug, and torment" their elders into...

Gosh, didn't we have some folks who tried that back in the 20th century? And those cases turned out so well for all concerned...

“...educators have also embraced the idea that through influencing children they can reeducate parents.”

The Khmer Rouge embraced the exact same idea in Cambodia...

...or “Lefty comes around, full-circle.” Fine. ...one polluting car, one polluting house (with heat, lights,...) per whole, real family. Remember: divorcing/cohabiting hoes pollute twice as much!

Kids can’t add, subtract or multiply … but they can recite Algores global warming crap verbatim.

Is there an 800 number kids can call and turn in their parents and other adults for not being green enough?

Russell calls on children to “channel their pester power and issue fines against their parents and other transgressors.”

Good way for a kid to get a fresh rosy glow on their "cheeks."

This might work for a doofus who voted for Obama, for the rest it might be the last straw which would lead them to try home schooling (in which the parent is a parent/teacher and the child is a child/student.)

Sure kid.

But you have to lead by example.

So we will sell your video games and toys, you can start walking if you want to go some place, we will close your room to save energy. We will get down the coffee mill so you can grind coffee for your dad and me in the morning.

Here are some seeds so you can plant a garden. And say hello to Ms Needle and Mr Thread. You can start recycling your clothes.

My daughters have a greenie teacher in their private Christian school. My once envioronmentally friendly daughter is totally turned off the whole environmental movement.

She says that her friends get mad at her for taking bottled water to school and not drinking every last bit of water.

The teacher wants to compost everything. They had a field trip to a dirty, smelly recycling plant (I went and thought it was interesting).

I think my daughter doesn’t like the pressure that the teacher and the kids put on everyone to “save the planet”.

This is the simiilar type of “education” that was forced on children in Warsaw Pact countries. Turn in your parents for being enemies of the state.

Years ago, I flamed a teacher by saying that environmentalism is nothing more than communism with a friendly face. She was a Gaia worshipper teaching 6th grade (key level). Man, that’s been almost 20 years and she was doing this stuff then (”tell mommy and daddy that they shouldn’t hunt or fish, etc.”).

Parents should be teaching their kids at a VERY early age that their teachers can and often are very flawed and give examples. I made it through the gauntlet of leftist teachers in a stronger position to argue my point of view.

I am so tired of shockingly moronic little kids spewing the absolute garbage they are being programed with at school. We were in a sporting goods store in the hunting section and a group of 4 junior high school boys looked at the recent photos of deer bagged here and one exclaimed “oh that is so sick!” My husband asked him if he knew where his burger meat came from - you know there is no getting away from a slaughter house for a cow. We smiled and walked away. Don’t get me started on the global warming children of the corn....

My nieces and nephews were doing that to my sister and her husband. I told them to fight fire with fire. Shut off the TV, computer, video games, anything that had to be charged, i.e iPods, cell phones etc., no running around in the car, no dishwasher etc. When the kids had to start living like 1960 to save the earth they lost interest in GW and the environment real fast. It taught them that actions have consequences. I would suggest the same technique to others.
