Lack of parental involvement? The only parental involvement the government schools REALLY care about is that you put the kid on the bus, pay your taxes, vote for the school bonds, and shut up.

You got that right. They want classroom volunteers to staple, glue, file, and shut up. I been there and done it, and now we're homeschooling and never going back.

By the way, Dr. Laura is also now urging her listeners to GET OUT of the government schools, mainly for the pro-gay, pro-sex, and anti-family garbage being served up to the students.

[This man has been the vanguard for millions of parents]

And that's why he should be ashamed of himself. He's been a shill for whatever the government wants to do to our children all that time if he has been "always, always aware". I don't doubt that he has been aware, and that makes him complicit.

My family never paid heed to radio/TV "christian leaders". It turns out that my parents were right about such people. Media "christian leaders" are making a good living undermining the teachings of Christ.

You know what.......just a glance at today's headlines, and I haven't any fight left to go against you two, and neither do I want to.

I was trying to defend Dobson, of whom I admire & respect.
You two don't, and nothing I can say will change your minds.

Burke, I know how the public schools operate, but thanks for the info lesson ....

I can only testify that Dobson, years ago, helped me understand that parents can & should make a difference in our schools, and set me on that course for many years.

And not only that, but after 15 years of marriage & when a lot of doubt & insecurity was settling in......I heard on his radio program & from reading his books.... life experiences and faith works of others that literally pulled me through that uneasy time.

I will always thank him & be grateful for his tireless devotion to families.

And yes, he does have a wonderful facility in Colorado Springs, and when I finally got to visit, I couldn't stop weeping for the joy he had brought to my entire family, and others like myself.

That's all I have to say.

God bless.

PS.....My daughter now teaches, and has taught, at a private Christian school for the past 7 years.

.....However, in the public school that she & my son attended & graduated from, there has been & still is a Christian club which meets ON CAMPUS for the past 9 years.......with pastors, Bibles, praise choruses, etc......and reaching the unchurched public school children in this highschool.

Also, in case you are unaware, there have been & still are THOUSANDS of Mom Groups who meet on a weekly basis to PRAY for our public schools, and interract with the administration as parents who care, and volunteer & bring 'light' to the campus.

All across America & overseas, there are Moms meeting in homes weekly.....praying for our schools.

Where did I first hear about this?.......Dobson's radio program.

I became a Prayer Facilitator for the schools in our county, and we had Moms representing over 25 schools engaged in weekly prayer, and also acts of service & kindness.

So, if Dobson is now saying, 'Get out of the California schools'........you can believe MANY will heed his call, and understand this state has been forsaken.

But I hope you know there are untold Christians in California who are heartbroken that it has come to this...........but understand the agenda that Planned Parenthood, the Gay Alliance, etc. has finally gripped the schools there so tightly, Dobson has had to make this plea.

And he will be listened to.

I'm beginning to believe that it's time for the publik skool systems in this country to go completely private. However, I suspect it would have to be gradual to avoid scaring the bejeebers out of people: eliminate fed funding and regs first; state funding and most state regs, second; and local funding and most local regs lastly.

Yep, Kalifornians could do their kiddies a GREAT service by removing their kids from the guns-are-bad, socialism-is-good, sexual-alternatives-are-just-that, environment-is-going-to-hell, conservatives-and-Republicans-are-evil publik skools!

P.S., I'm aware that not all publik skools are this bad, but will they stay that way, and for how long?
