PROTECT CHILDREN in California (AB 2084)

"People are willfully ignorant!" - Sad but true.

[Saundra Duffy]

Yes, if this legislation fails, I hope Briggs will go for a state wide initiative. California is so STRANGE, though, they might reject it but I think it's worth a try - to PROTECT CHILDREN from exploitation, abuse and emotional suffering. Not only that, but abortion can cause breast cancer! www.AbortionBreastCancer.com For victory & freedom!!!

Thanks for the link. God help us all.

There are a few cases where parental notification isn't appropriate, such as when there's good reason to believe that a pregnancy (or venereal disease, or serious physical injury, or whatever help is being sought for) came about at the hands of a parent. Notifying a father that his adolescent daughter is seeking help because she's pregnant, when he's likely the one who impregnated her, is obviously not wise. Likewise if she's seeking counseling and/or medical attention as a result of severe beatings endured at home. But any thinking person can see that these sorts of cases need to be handled by the police and the courts, not by school bureaucrats. The only thing school officials should be empowered to do without a parent's consent is call the police.

Agreed. In cases of parental abuse, the school is required to call the police. So what Briggs is proposing already takes that into account. Thanks for your thoughtful comments, pal. For victory & freedom!!!

[Saundra Duffy]

BUMP what you said. For victory & freedom!!!

Nice to see another openly pro-choice freeper. It's important that the "pro-life" majority around here understands that we're their allies -- on home schooling laws, 2nd Amendment rights, the welfare state, "politically correct" absurdities, and all the other areas where our socialist government is invading private citizens' lives like cancer.

Then why are you advocating for mandatory DNA testing for newborns, just so we can know who everybody is?

Is FR turning into a pro-choice site here? This comment and the responses to it are unbelievable.

ANOTHER REASON TO HOMESCHOOL

This ping list is for the “other” articles of interest to homeschoolers about education and public school. This can occasionally be a fairly high volume list. Articles pinged to the Another Reason to Homeschool List will be given the keyword of ARTH. (If I remember. If I forget, please feel free to add it yourself)

The main Homeschool Ping List handles the homeschool-specific articles. I hold both the Homeschool Ping List and the Another Reason to Homeschool Ping list. Please freepmail me to let me know if you would like to be added to or removed from either list, or both.

“allies” Humm, I do not think so (at least for me). If you have no problem with the dismemberment, burning alive of pre-born babies you are not on my side.

[svcw]

Yes, one can be conservative and still be pro choice.

How so? What choice does the pre-born baby have? Why is abortion conservative in any way?

I think your point is correct.
Having had my child go through Santa Cruz County schools, it is sad. Lots of complaining but little work.
A parent has to be really engaged, in every aspect of their child/rens education.
It take a lot of work.
We are so over taxed that usually both parents have to work and have very little time left to invest in education. Many parents are just to trusting of the CA education system relying on our previous excellence.

Wait a second...

Hold the phone...

Did you actually post "FOR the children?"

WOW....

[metmom]

There is not a position that I’ve seen you take that can genuinely be called conservative.

You are not an ally to pro-life conservatives. You are pro-abortion (pro-murder), pro-big government intrusion into people’s personal lives (mandatory DNA testing of newborns for ID purposes), and don’t care to take a stand on child molesters (*simple fondling* is not harmful to a a child).

Your pretending to be conservative shows that you are dumber than you think we are if you think that we believe you.

[metmom]

Yes, one can be conservative and still be pro choice.

No, one can't Pro-choice is an inherently liberal position.

I've found that my views on that subject tend to be highly misunderstood and grossly re-interpreted, so I don't even want to discuss it anymore.

It's not so hard. Abortion is murder. Nothing to misunderstand. If you are pro-choice, you are pro murder.

Interesting posting history you have there. What brought you out this year?

F.R. is an openly and proudly pro life web site. It says so right in the founders statement somewhere and J.R. has repeatedly stated his pro life views over the years.
