Me: Name 2 of the Founding Fathers.
4th grade granddaughter: What are Founding Fathers?
Me: Who did we win our Independence from?
4th grade granddaughter: The Irish?
Me: Do they still teach history in school?
4th grade granddaughter: Yes, in Social Studies.

Obviously we have a lot of work to do. I just spent an hour giving her a lesson on our Founding.

Freedom is not free, become a monthly donor and eliminate the need for these quarterly fund raisers.

Thank you very much, kempster. I’ve been wondering whether they’ve actually stopped teaching our children about our founding. Guess they have.

Howdy everyone!!
