How the feds are tracking your kid (more than just watching!)

Would it bother you to know that the federal Centers for Disease Control had been shown your daughter’s health records to see how she responded to an STD/teen-pregnancy-prevention program? How about if the federal Department of Education and Department of Labor scrutinized your son’s academic performance to see if he should be “encouraged” to leave high school early to learn a trade? Would you think the government was intruding on your territory as a parent?

Under regulations the Obama Department of Education released this month, these scenarios could become reality. The department has taken a giant step toward creating a de facto national student database that will track students by their personal information from preschool through career. Although current federal law prohibits this, the department decided to ignore Congress and, in effect, rewrite the law. Student privacy and parental authority will suffer.

~~snip~~

... on Dec. 2, the Department of Education rejected almost all the criticisms and released the regulations. As of Jan. 3, 2012, interstate and intergovernmental access to your child’s personal information will be practically unlimited. The federal government will have a de facto nationwide database of supposedly confidential student information.

Homeschooling is the most radical act any citizen/subject can do.

Doctors now fill up children’s files with their answers to personal and inappropriate questions on themselves and their families. Those files belong to the government under Deathcare.

Personally, I consider our nation's socialist system of K-12 schools to be such a threat to our continued existence as a free nation that I have eliminated all socialist K-12 teachers from my friend list. I will not have anyone who would cooperate with this in any manner as a friend.

I seriously doubt that our nation can withstand another generation of citizens being subjected to our nation's system of socialist K-12 schools.

Since when do regs trump Congressionally enacted law? Congress has to wake up.
