In case you’re wondering what a mugwump is, it describes people who can’t make up their mind. In the last post I emphasized how it seems more and more evident that there are those in our government and other positions of authority who are trying to convince the nation that parents are not needed and…

PARENTS BILL OF RIGHTS PASSES HOUSE
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…
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…
CHRISTIANITY: DEATH BY A THOUSAND CUTS?
Is Christianity dying a slow death—death by a thousand cuts? The words on the front cover of my book Who’s Got Dibs on Your Kids? suggest that is precisely what is happening. Those words are: “How the Pied Pipers of our society are leading your kids on a path away from you, your beliefs, your…
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…
YOU’RE DOING A GREAT JOB!
Congratulations, parents. You have done a great job letting people know that you really do care about your kids’ education. And even better, lawmakers are taking their marching orders from you. Parentalrights.org recently covered the latest information about legislation being passed to protect your rights and the rights of your children. I’ll cover a few of…
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…
PARENTS: ARE YOU DOMESTIC TERRORISTS?
According to Attorney General Merrick Garland, you might be a domestic terrorist. Effectively immediately, the National Security Division is handling the investigation of “harassment, intimidation and threats of violence against school board members, teachers and workers in our nation’s public schools.” I have long advocated that parents not sit back and be afraid that if…
