Almost all Republicans, but no Democrats, voted to pass H.R.6056 – Parents Bill of Rights Act. It was definitely a “win” for the Republicans as well as the parents who have been fighting for the right to have a voice in what is taught to their children. However, the chances that it will pass the…

DEI and CRT – DON’T BE MISLED
I recently saw on TV news someone from a school explaining that their school did not teach CRT (critical race theory), but they were committed to Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion. There is an old song that says love and marriage go together like a horse and carriage. Well, critical race theory and diversity, equity, and inclusion…
YOUR KIDS: 2022 IN RETROSPECT
I’ve been thinking about our kids, and how they are affected by growing up in today’s society. So, in this last blog post of this year I am going to ask you to reflect with me and consider what has changed to uplift them, and what is still in need of perfecting. January: 14th: IS…
WIT AND WISDOM AND CRT
I felt like I’d written enough about CRT and believed you probably felt the same way. But it reared its ugly head again this morning when I heard Dr. Carol Swain say that it is still being taught in schools. Not only is it being taught, she says, but they claim that it is real. They…
POISONING OUR KIDS
It seems children have always been attracted to substances that are not good for them. Why? One reason is they see their parents and other adults taking or using them. An obvious example of that is smoking cigarettes. It’s a kind of reflexive “monkey see, monkey do.” I remember a story of a little two-year-old…
IT’S BACK-TO-SCHOOL-TIME—AGAIN
As you check to see what is still good enough after one child has outgrown it to pass it down to the next in line, as you check the sales on crayons, rulers, notebooks, and lunchboxes, as you realize how much they have grown in what seems such a little time, there is something else…
YOUR VOTE IS VITAL
Your vote is vital. Yes, your vote is always significant—in presidential elections, mid-terms, gubernatorial, and on. But I don’t want you to forget about the primaries.

DON’T LOSE YOUR FOCUS! KEEP YOUR EYE ON THE BALL!
The election for the governor of Virginia is behind us. Glenn Youngkin was elected, and he has promised to ban CRT in the state of Virginia. You might say that parents won that election because they were a formidable opponent to Terry McAuliffe, as much so as Youngkin was. But now what? The same teachers…
IS VIRGINIA’S ELECTION REALLY A PRO-FAMILY VOTE?
The vote for a new governor for the state of Virginia has become national news. One candidate, Terry McAuliffe, has publically stated that he believes parents have no say in what is taught their children in public schools. The other candidate, Glenn Youngkin, says parents have a right to care about what is being…
