I’m going to say something that shouldn’t be controversial but will be. If you are a Christian, you can support border control and immigration being legal vs illegal. You CANNOT celebrate deportations and get off on the cruelty, and be a real Christ follower. Period

We live in a time that people are more inclined to obey an unlawful executive order than they are to follow a court order 🤦🏾‍♀️.

Dictators are created due to cruelty, cowardice, & compliance! IF THEIR ASSES will ignore the Supreme Court, we can definitely IGNORE HIM!

Mexico has officially banned the Trump propaganda from airing on Mexican TV and social media. No racist ads, and no lies disguised as messages to the world.

The media is scared of Donald Trump because if he attacks them, they lose money.

I'm not scared.

I'm not backed by big corporate sponsors. I will always stand up to Trump.

Of course advance information on US combat operations is classified. Pretending otherwise is an insult to our troops, who all know this.

The Secretary is unfit to lead.

Tell me again why we’re letting a 78 year old, legit smelly, odorous, frail, loser old man who bankrupted a CASINO bankrupt the country?

Congress? Any answers?

I refuse to be the kind of person who loses their mind over a delayed train or lets a spilled coffee set the tone for the whole day.

I want to be the one who stays composed, who sees the good even when things don’t go as planned. The kind of person who breathes through the little chaos and still finds beauty in how the day unfolds.

I want to be soft. I want to be steady.

You will never have to consider vaccines for your school-age children if you Homeschool. It's worth it in so many ways.

Americans are poorly educated as is, do you want them educated even less by leaving it to "moms and pops?"

Roger Boswarva's avatar

Angelina, you are correct in that "Americans are poorly educated" . . . I'm an 89 year old Australian who has lived and worked around the world. The company I help found had a head office in London (where I lived for 15 years) branches in Antwerp, Cologne, Nice, Hong Kong, New York, and I am now settled in the USA . . . . But you are ill-informed on the notion that American children would be "educated even less by leaving it to "moms and pops."

Apart from the fact that wonderful resources are av…

Angelina's avatar

Roger, I see your point. However, leaving education entirely in their parents hands (vs. in addition to school), could lead to more troubles than we already got. Not all parents are suited to teach (nothing wrong with it), not all parents are educated well, so it would be the blind lead the blind, and as a parent, I do see many issues with above situation, and while it could be excellent in some cases, it also could be a disaster in the wrong hands. I think we'd be better off to raise an educat…

That's just wrong. Yo clearly are not aware of what homeschooling is today.. It;s not some kind of free range learning as some people have experimented with. We homeschooled our girls' grades 1-12 and my oldest easily got accepted to one of the most recognized colleges in TX. My youngest who is in 11th grade and already taken college level courses, is on the same track.

There are definitely school districts that as they are today would produce outstanding high school graduates but they are becoming the few. Even if we raised the standards on education we still have the threat of the ideologues in teh system poisoning our kids mind; trying to convince them their gay or queer. They could still indoctrinate while simultaneously proving the required education.

The system is a lost cause with as badly corrupted as it has become. It's not just about educational standards. You still have the terrible teachers unions to contend with and they are not going anywhere. The system is also a huge money pit. We spend more per student than other nations and still produce the worst outcomes. You would need to adress all of the bellow before you could even get to a point where the system is acceptable:

1) Fed Dept of Ed - This may finally end

2) ALL teacher unions. Public unions should be illegal since there is no competition but more importantly because these unions are corrupt

3) Raise education standards/requirements

4) Put and end to the violence tolerated by certain ethnic groups in the name of fighting racism

5) The administrative state within the education system. The buck should stop at the school superintendent. Every district should have minimal guidelines from the state and otherwise allowed to execute education the way those living in the district want.

6) End the discrimination against boys and the drugging of them to change their behaviors. The system has been modified to be pro-girl and anti-boy. They drug boys to make them more like girls b/c boys are naturally more rambunctious

The problem is much broader then just education standards
