I agree...the plan is to prop up big pharma and 'normalize" the abnormal

BUT...you lost me at the third paragraph:

Harvard-trained psychiatrist Dr. Peter Breggin, celebrated around the world for his war on psychiatric quackery such as lobotomies and electro-shock “therapy,” sounded the alarm about the Illinois plan.

"Harvard trained" doesn't mean a whole lot these days.

"Electro-shock 'therapy'" works, and is much better in the long term than lifetime prescriptions for head meds which need frequent adjustment and augmentation with other head meds.

The poor children of Illinois. Hello private schools. By the way...a yearly head check is warranted for administrators and teachers and I don’t mean for head lice.

Test the teachers first. Publish the results.

Is this “test” to ascertain if parents are WOKE?

I don’t think much of shock treatment. My mom had it, late 1940s, early 50s.
It may have helped her out initially, but I believe that later in her life it caused her a lot of problems.

They might be testing to see if they have to buy some more sandboxes for the kids that think they are dogs or cats. There are accommodating some in area schools now.

Harvard-trained psychiatrist Dr. Peter Breggin,

Somewhat surprising that a Harvard man would be OPPOSING this garbage.

In the past I have recommended that everyone running for public office have a mental eval with results published prior to the election.

Also drug and alcohol testing with periodic retesting while in office.

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.

Conspiracy ping.

Kids have no filter at a young enough age. What a way to get them to rat on their parents but to disguise the surveillance as *mental health* screening.
