What you have just read is nothing but a continuation to make the child a ward of the state.

Bump

That is an awsome site.

I salute your talent. Bookmarked.

But, I guess I need to break down and buy the bigger monitor that my failing eyesight now requires.

Russia also had a system where the mothers worked, or stood on line for hours for some rotten cabbage, and the kids were swept up and put into indoctrination centers for most of the day.

I realize that the Prussian model was used to introduce public schools to this country.

The Japanese also proved that this EARLY schooling was detrimental to the kids mental health. They were becoming wackos since they were deprived of a normal babyhood and thrust into competetive "learning" situations well before they were able to adapt to it. In short...they needed mommy and daddy not some goofball "Educator"

This what slowly dawned on Soviets. Interesting difference between Bolsheviks and Western statists is that the first started with the rapid implementation of utopian ideas and then withdrew step by step over the decades. Western "engineers of human souls" try the opposite tactic - they "remake" human nature slowly like proverbial frog in heated water.

Of course they will fail as well, but their fall might be more disastrous.

I know what you mean. Am I wrong , I thought being a child is the best time of your life. You can do all the "kid" stuff and have no worries for a couple of years. My grandson is so smart, funny, easy going, loving. ect I could go on all night. I'm dreading the day he "has" to start school. never mind getting him ready that early. Its going to ruin him as it is. Hes soo sweet. Now I want him to stay that way. I can't say it enough.

I do, and they are PO'd BIG time!!

I do my best to stay out of the crosshairs of any school district.

Come do your homeschooling at our district, we have homeschooling programs, right, uh, no thanks, I don't think so.

They want your childs name on a list, DON'T DO IT!!

THey may be nice and sweet now, but that Jekyl will come out someday, and if your childs name is on that list.

Forget about it.

Remember, you're NOT paranoid if they are ACTUALLY out to get you.

Yep, there's nothing sweeter than a little boy, so wide-eyed and earnest. It passes too quickly, doesn't it?

But that's how God intends it to be. Enjoy all of it.

Oh, how I wish I could find a reference. I read it fifteen or twenty years ago, though, and haven't a clue where. It could have been in Readers Digest, I suppose. I wonder if they have on-line archives going back that far?

I feel sorry for today's kids. They are under a lot of pressure in the public schools, what with high-stakes testing and hours of "homework." The schools suck the life out of them.

No there is nothing sweeter than a little boy except perhaps a little girl. (equal in sweetness not sweeter). Yes the time passes much to quickly. I enjoy them sooo much. they are the light of my life.

I do too. my grandson (l6 at the time was doing bad in school. (its no wonder with what they offer today.) my daughter took him out of school and home schooled him. his first year of home schooling put him way ahead of his class . what a difference.
