Well, the compulsory public education system is not very old–late 19th century, and was established as a main pathway to educate boys to become soldiers. Its also one of the more SURPRISING developments during the industrial revolution in that it violated long held traditions of parents being in charge of their children, and removed children from the workforce. Over time, the horrible results of nationalistic education are evident in the efficacy of Hitler’s campaign, Stalin, etc. For years, schools were oppressive places that tried to mold children according to adult agendas….and there was a HUGE backlash…culminating in the diminution and devaluing of personal achievement and individuality, and bureaucratic bombardment with multiculturalist agendas. Perhaps this is creating a general ennui in the populace? I mean, I was born in 1975, but at least I grew up during some of the Cold War, and I identify with those of my generation who were taught at least some pride. On the other hand, I would like to see more accurate world history taught in schools, and not just that Sherman and Columbus were good dudes. But to be a true intellectual is discouraged in secondary schools–students are more concerned with blending in and being popular, pissing away their lives through conforming rather than making a real difference.

And globalization has been going of for quite a while, with the US unfortunately becoming the strong arm of the globalist regime. But I was proud to go to public school when foreign students still took so much pride in just how glad they were to be in the USA–their home countries were awful! And I will never forget them. Asians, Russians, southeast Asians, all so proud, glad to devote all their time to study. Thats something that probably didn’t happen at any other time in the history of public education in America, due to segregation and the separation of communities into ethnic divisions.

As an aside, if we do have to send them to school, at least lets get the Fed out and return control to local School Boards. That’s the way it used to be in this country. hb

Hippybiker I finally disagree with you. The answer is homeschooling. Forget the babylonian public school system. Get your children out and teach them yourself. When you do that you can instill YOUR values in their lives. I don’t trust anybody. Let alone some gubmit empoyee to train my children. The Bible clearly states ” Train up your children”. Not “Send your children to school”.

I am very blessed to have a wife that made a commitment to stay home, live on what I made and teach our seven children. We were never able to buy a new vehicle, rarely ate out, never went to movies, didn’t have cable, don’t have a boat, no motorcycle, no camper, don’t even own our home, … you get the idea. Am I sorry we did that. NO!!!! If you send your children to somebody else, don’t bitch when you don’t like the results.

When it comes apart, I don’t have to worry about finding a group to hang around with. With my 4 boys, I have my own group of five. And I can and will trust them with my life. And that is a wonderful feeling. Blood is thick. No worry about infiltrators. Woe to any stupid misguided gubmit employee that wants to come and get our guns. It WILL be the last act of tyranny you will attempt.

Death to the new world order.

The problem is, our schools have become “Baby Sitting Centers” and parents are not active in their communities. If you care about the future of your children, get active and help run the bad Principles and Teachers out of your schools.
