Karen, I am seriously at the point of what is going on? I work as an early educator. I knew things were headed downhill awhile ago, yet I said little. I regret that I was not being as vocal as I could have been. . I no longer want to go to professional learning where the hosts tell us their name and their pronouns. I really do not want to start the learning with a land acknowledgement. I really do not want to be told the value of how diversity, equality and inclusion should be a focal point of the learning environment. I am not eager to promote gay and transgendered to young children.

Call me traditional or old fashioned but I think children should be children. I like the values of honesty, respect, kindness, cooperation and caring.

You are not traditional or old fashion. You are a person who obviously loves and understands what children really need. I believe because parents have pushed their kids off on others to raise and planted them in front of an IPad rather that sitting down and interacting with their children (basically the destruction of the family) is why we are seeing a generation of children that have deep seeded mental issues. And the perverts are taking advantage of these children who feel abandoned, unloved, like they don't fit in (and don't understand why) have become victims of this perversion that started formally with the King of all perverts Alfred Kinsey. NEVER apologize for loving children and knowing what children REALLY need. Do what you KNOW is the right thing to do and there could be consequences but the consequence of not speaking out or just caring for the children in your charge is much greater. When God closes one door he always opens another door. There is a place for people like you that truly love God's children. Find that place and your burden will be lifted. THANK YOU so much for writing. You truly lifted my spirits to know there are still educators out there that see the what is happening and know it is wrong and are ready to fight back.

The event in Mount Juliet yesterday was amazing, Karen. Thank you for organizing it. If I had any suggestions it would be to include a social, mingling portion, like maybe an organized lunch afterward, so that like minded people could meet and connect with each other in person. But if you didn’t do that next time I would still go. This is meant as a suggestion not as criticism. I know how much more work that would have been to organize and pulling this one off was difficult enough as it was.

People who have denied the existence of the Bohemian Grove, pedophilia, SRA etc are partly to blame because this should have been revealed long ago. "land acknowledgement" ? Acknowledgment of traditional land is a public statement of the name of the traditional Native inhabitants of a place. It honors their historic relationship with the land https://www.washingtonpost.com/archive/lifestyle/1995/12/08/kinsey-report-fast-and-loose/b058e754-34c5-4c62-87fb-7ee1cd42d625/ Kinsey was not the pedophile.

One more person in an extremely unfriendly to family society, telling parents they do not know how to parent is the last thing we need right now. Look at what the childhood most came from. The parents today were put in childcare from infancy on and they have never had the overt consistent love a parent, just lots of people that came in and then left their life year after year. With this type of inconsistency how do we expect people to grow up and know how to stop and give their child consist care. Our children have been nothing but products for a childcare and educational system to exploit, with tired and over worked parents who have no time to fight the system. This statement is from a parent of 2 mid 50 year old children who could still stay home when the children were young and you could still live on 1 pay check. Time to rethink our entire system.

So who is responsible....the family dog. It is time to stop making excuses and start taking responsibility. I agree most parents today were raised in single parent homes, shoved off into daycare but that does not mean parents are not the reason (not blame but the reason) why our kids are so messed. Once you face that fact if you care enough to turn it around then you will do something about it. More parents ARE taking their kids out of the system today than ever before so they are waking up. But if you have to send your kids then what you need to do when they come home is talk to them, show them the facts and truth instead of shoving an IPad in their face or a cell phone. Love them. Share life with them. Again, you are taking the reason out of context. I am not BLAMING parents I am identifying the problem and for those that agree it is time to turn things around and that can only happen if parents make it happen. The key is no matter what make your kids the focal point of your life. When I go out to eat the scene is always the same. Mother, Father (or just mother) and the kids all with their face in their cell phone and no one talks to each other.

Well Karen, off of the blame, shame, and guilt gaming of parents and on with offering parents, who are so caught in the new world of machines they have been raised in, in every phase of their lives, they think this machine behavior is normal, and on with providing information and support.

When we look at the financial situations most parents are in today and the societal mess we are in with a government gone mad and parents caught in the midst of it all, we find very little financial support following the birth of a child to stay home and take the time to raise their own child in the formative years, while there is continuous talk of more and more funding for daycare centers for stranger to raise our children. Many in these care giving position are making minimum wages and their most precious goal is not our children but to get a better paying job. While they are nice and all they do not truly engage at a deep level as a parent can.

As I begin to write this there is so much more information I could share with you but no time as I am finishing a book series to address the exact issue we speak of. In the mean time on my web site, birthingfamily.org you will find an article I wrote early 2020, https://birthingfamily.org/a-new-look-at-our-ages-old-human-innate-parenting-skills-and-going-back-to-work-following-the-birth-of-a-child This essay article addresses the many issues parents are dealing with along with encouragement of how to step out of the unhealthy social cycles. Issues our entire society has created together and are reaping the results of, that current parents live and struggle with every day. I hope you take a look and the site and article and that you are a supporter of the work that has begun, work that includes my friend Marilyn Milos, founder of NOCIRC in the 80s, who has just published her book, Please Don't Cut the Baby, which can be found at intactamerican.org Where you can also find the book, This Penis Business by Georganne Chapin, both books provide powerful information for parents of what our newborn boys go through within a few days of entering this world. Both of the books are revealing of what is done, and what parents just do not know about, while trusting those professionals who are suppose to care for us are doing, that is detrimental to family. Marilyn is pushing me to get my books finish and published before she passes on, and God willing it looks like that will happen.

I agree with you that as soon as a parent knows the truth, the power of the mama and papa bears that resides in every parent rises and gives the parent the strength to take the reins willingly with full intent to protect their children. There success also depends on us as their elders giving them the support and information to know the truth and to back them up as stand up, as they find out how this world really works.

The one thing that concerns me in this day and age is an issue, I have been learning about over the past few years, that is the national money making schemes running rapid in our social services agencies, foster care, social workers, and local legal and court systems, who in cohoots are using these services to take children away from parents, kidnapping in other words, and putting the child in foster care, where lots of public funding is funneled, if the parents do not follow orders, when doctors or other professionals prescribed this or that treatment, who then deem the parents as abusive when the parent resists this or that professional's advice. https://vaccineimpact.com a site I get news from everyday, is one the few places where this issue is regularly reported and calls out for us the public to call the various judges, etc and protest the crime being perpetrated, which has resulted in the return of child to their parents. But many are never returned and it turns out there is a lot of sex trafficking of these children all integrated into this scheme. Along with my overall concern for the family, is heightened in this matter, as the intimidation of parents can message to all parents to stand down, and take the step to buck a system.
