Turning the Kiddies into what they want.

Fourth-grade students in Illinois are learning that “government is like a nation’s family” because it sets rules and takes care of needs such as health care and education.
So says a worksheet for social studies homework that was distributed to students at East Prairie School in Skokie, Ill, complete with a drawing of Uncle Same cradling a baby that represents the citizens.
Students are then prompted to answer 10 questions comparing government and families, including how their family provides for their health care needs and how the government does the same, and what rules families set and what rules government sets.
The worksheet it titled, “What is Government?” and then goes on to answer that question.
“Government is all of the agencies, departments, organizations, groups, individuals in a nation who make, carry out, enforce, and manage conflicts about rules and laws,” the worksheet says.
“Government is like a nation’s family. Families take care of children and make sure they are safe, healthy and educated, and free to enjoy life. Families encourage children to be independent hardworking and responsible,” it continues. “Families make and enforce rules and give appropriate punishments when rules are broken. Government does these things for its citizens, too.”

40. Discredit the family as an institution. Encourage promiscuity and easy divorce.
41. Emphasize the need to raise children away from the negative influence of parents. Attribute prejudices, mental blocks and retarding of children to suppressive influence of parents.

Infuriating
Apparently, then, it abuses its children.
Government is a family
The Manson family
Another Reason to Homeschool
Are you infuriated enough to demand that these indoctrination centers be shut down?
If you have children are you infuriated enough to immediately remove your own children?
Then it is time to grow up and move out on one’s own.
Healthy families encourage hard work and independence, not sloth and perpetual childhood.
The Government is not my parent. There is no Article I, Section 8 power that authorizes them to be so. Usurpers.
Wintertime's Rant:
If you read my posts you will see that I almost never comment on the academic success or failure of government schooling.
These are a few of my objections ( none of which are based on academic success or failure):
—It is utterly impossible to have a religiously, culturally, and politically neutral education. Such a philosophical state can not exist in the mind of any sentient human. It is true also for the classroom.
Therefore...Government schooling is a First Amendment and freedom of conscience abomination for those who are under police threat to use the schools or to fund them.
—Government schooling is currently godless in their religious worldview. Godless is **NOT** religiously neutral in content or consequences for the child or for the larger culture. Children who attend these godless schools ( many under the threat of police action) **WILL** learn to think and reason godlessly. They must just to cooperate in the godless classroom, read their godless texts, a do their godless home assignments. How could it possibly be otherwise.
Therefore....It is a freedom of conscience and human rights abuse to force any child into a godless environment or to force taxpayers to pay for the ESTABLISHMENT of godlessness in the larger culture.
-—Government K-12 schooling is a single-payer, compulsory-use, socialist-entitlement. The children who attend risk learning that any voting mob powerful enough to give a child tuition-free schooling is powerful enough to give them LOTS of “free” stuff and use the threat of police force to make them use it.
My grandparents ( born in the 1860s and70s), my grandmother ( born 1894), and my father ( born 1913) all attended the nation’s first state owned and controlled K-12 socialist-entitlement schools. It was these generations that gave the nation Woodrow, Wilson, the Federal Reserve , the 16th and 17th amendments, prohibition, the failed League of Nations, violent unions, the cyrpto-Marxist Franklin D. Roosevelt with his New Deal, and LBJ with his Great Society. It has only grown worse since then.
—There are NO studies that prove that prison-like and Prussian model government schooling even works! It is UNKNOWN where and how the child acquires his knowledge. It is my anecdotal observation that academically successful institutionalized children and homeschoolers are spending the SAME AMOUNT OF TIME studying IN THE HOME!!!
Maybe, just maybe, taxpayers fork over a universe of money to fund a system that is completely USELESS in imparting knowledge to the child. Maybe, just maybe, the only thing government schools do is send home a very expensive curriculum for parents, the child, and paid or unpaid tutors to follow IN THE HOME!!
— Most government owned and run schools resemble prisons. In fact, from a distance of more than a block or two it is hard to tell the difference between a government school and a prison. Cliques, with their fashion trends, share many of the characteristics of prison protection gangs! The child is confined to a government assigned space. He is march around with people of the government choosing to the sound of bells. The government tells him when he will urinate and defecate. The government tells him when he will eat, rest, and exercise. The government orders state approved exercise and his play areas resemble prison exercise yards. Government school buses look like prison transport.
— There are government schools in this nation that are soooooooo horrifically dangerous and drug infested that it would be better for the child to NEVER GO TO SCHOOL!! Illiteracy and innumeracy can be fixed. Dead or permanently disabled can’t be.
-—Children waiting for their government transport to school look like day laborers lined up outside Home Depot.
—Government schooling violates The First Amendment Right of the child, his parents, and the taxpayer. Freedom of speech is strictly controlled by the state, Most the time the child is ordered to shut up. The rest of the time he my only speak in a politically correct ( Orwellian controlled) manner. He can not publish freely. His freedom to assemble is destroyed, first by being forced into a prison-like environment. and then by being forced to assemble with people of the governments choosing. And...The godless and religiously NON-neutral worldview of secular humanism surrounds him like water for a fish.
It is NOT natural to segregate children away from their parents and the larger society. More than 150,000 years of human experience screams against such a inhumane practice. Our human ancestors would be APPALLED that we treat children these way.
Therefore....Given all the reasons listed above GOVERNMENT K-12 SCHOOLING IS CHILD ABUSE!!
This Uncle Sam character is a scary critter. Unsustainable.
This Uncle Sam character is a scary critter. Kinda like Santa Claus. Giving out free stuff to all who want it. Unsustainable.
Perfect misspelling. Uncle Sam has been replaced by Uncle Same. Liberty has been replaced by fairness....
Bump.
This is pure, unadulterated indoctrination!
Nice family you got there, be a shame if something happened to them....
