Follow up polls to the 2016 Presidential election showed that Trump did not fare well with suburban females. The constant bombardment labeling him as a misogynist, racist, etc. had its intended impact. My thoughts are that if these women are really concerned about the future, they would do well to look very closely at how their children are being taught.
A recent confrontation of elementary and middle school children with Senator Feinstein is a carrion call to all who want our children to be critical thinkers and not parrots of the teacher’s union. Armed with propaganda on “climate change”, they challenged the Senator to take immediate action to prevent the earth from crumbling in the next 10 years. Egged on by their teacher, they refused to let Feinstein off the hook.
It appears that science curriculum comes from a group called, “Next Generation Science Standards”. It is used by 19 states with another 21 having “embraced some of the material with modifications”, according to a Chicago tribune article titled “Climate Deniers turn heat on schools”. I was unable to find the actual curriculum but from this article, no alternative viewpoints on climate change are being offered nor is the science behind them. The result is indoctrination rather than educating. Children being susceptible to propaganda do not understand there are two sides to the story. Indeed, University of Illinois climate scientist, Donald Wuebbles was quoted as saying, “You can’t talk about two sides when the other side doesn’t have a foot in reality.”
Climate change is just one subject where our children are being force fed versus nurtured. American history, economics and a host of other base subjects have been slanted to impose a biased understanding. Moms, you may want to attend a Board of Education meeting to find out for yourself just what your children are being taught. It may fit your reality but then again, it may not.
