EXCLUSIVE: Male Student Allowed to Stay in School After ‘Inappropriate Conduct’ With Multiple Female Victims at Florida Middle School – Epoch Times

25 Jan 2022 Michael A

He describes how the male student was placing his hands on the girl’s thigh and exposed her bra by pulling on her shirt. The girl asked him to stop but he continued. …The boy did not deny the girl’s accusations but accused the girl of the same actions. The boy was advised “there are consequences to his actions” and the father wants to place a “Stay Away” contract in place that prohibits him from speaking to her “by any means,” including through text messages, friends, and social media. …Despite the “Stay Away” agreement, Benjamin’s daughter texted him from school the next morning to let him know the boy was there and demanding to know why she had told people about the incident. …Benjamin contacted the school immediately and demanded they get his daughter into the safety of the principal’s office until he arrived. …The boy already had a known history of sexually assaulting girls at the school and was now admitting an inability to control his own actions. A few days later, Benjamin was horrified to learn from his daughter that one of her friends had become another victim of the same boy.

Marxism a ‘Virus’ That Has Evolved Into Critical Race Theory: Author [Dr. James Lindsay] – Epoch Times

25 Jan 2022 Michael A

“Marxism has just been evolving,” Lindsay EpochTV’s “Crossroads” program. “It’s like a virus that’s been picking up new ways to infiltrate into different potential hosts. And the underlying core is exactly the same, and in the end, in most respects, the underlying goals are completely the same.” The presence of CRT in K–12 education has become a topic of debate, particularly in some of the nation’s recent high-profile elections. A number of GOP-led states have barred schools from using curricula based on critical race theory or The New York Times’s “1619 Project,” which critics have denounced as ahistorical and inaccurate. …“If you break off from the old culture … you can go into a whole new culture with a whole new model,” he continued. “What you have to do is foment hatred against the existing culture, or at least make people feel like it’s toxic, which is one of their favorite words.”

Arizona to Provide Relief for Parents If Their Children’s School Closes ‘Even One Day’ – Epoch Times

6 Jan 2022 Michael A

Arizona Gov. Doug Ducey on Tuesday announced a new benefits program to help fund eligible families that may not otherwise be able to afford to move their children to schools that stay open for in-person instructions. According to the governor’s office, the new Open for Learning Recovery Benefit program will provide up to $7,000 for qualified students in case the schools they go to “close for even one day.” The aid money can be used to cover expenses relating to child care, school-coordinated transportation, online tutoring, and school tuition. …The initiative comes as some Arizona school districts have delayed students coming back to school, citing the recent surge in CCP (Chinese Communist Party) virus infections driven by the Omicron variant.

School Board ‘Shenanigans’ Inspire Greater Interest Among Parents to Vote in Midterm Elections – Epoch Times

24 Dec 2021 Michael A

“Glenn Youngkin’s victory in Virginia was led by frustrated parents who were fed up with an education system that neglected the needs of their children,” McCarthy told The Epoch Times. “It is just one snapshot of the same frustration that has been, and continues to be, felt by millions of families nationwide.”
According to McCarthy, parents are facing school board officials who are “more interested in appeasing liberal activists and teachers’ unions than they are in bettering the educational experience of students. “In my home state of California, there has been a recent push to ‘de-emphasize calculus’ and include more ‘social justice’ in math. Parents across the country have voiced concerns about inappropriate literature on school bookshelves. Unexpected threats of school closures continue to loom, and this is all happening in the midst of a push to decrease parental involvement in education. This is wrong—that is why House Republicans will ensure protecting parents’ involvement in education will be a critical component of our ’22 platform.”

Pandemic Could Be Solved Quickly If Politics Thrown Out: Dr. Ben Carson – Epoch Times

18 Dec 2021 Michael A

“Let’s open this thing up to all the different mechanisms,” said Carson, a renowned neurosurgeon who was awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom—the highest civilian award in the nation—in 2008 for his work. He retired in 2013 and ran for the presidency in 2016, before serving as the secretary of Housing and Urban Development during the Trump administration. “Let’s look around the world at things that work. Let’s look at the fact that on the western coast of Africa, there’s almost no COVID. And let’s ask ourselves, why is that? And then you see, it’s because they take antimalarials, particularly hydroxychloroquine. Let’s study that. Let’s see what’s going on there.

What I’ve learned rescuing my daughter from her transgender fantasy – American Faith

15 Dec 2021 Michael A

My daughter’s story is no longer novel. Stories like it are occurring in your state, your town, and perhaps even on your street. Gender dysphoria—the incongruence between the mind and the body—moves stealthily and quickly to invade girls and boys alike. But this isn’t a cautionary tale. It’s a warning. …I followed the advice of Parents for Ethical Care’s podcasts and the book “Desist, Detrans & Detox: Getting Your Child Out of the Gender Cult” by Maria Keffler. I worked hard to take back the close relationship my daughter and I had once had. I bit my tongue until it bled. I took her anger and only responded with love or walked away when I knew I would respond poorly.

Teaching Children to Recognize Propaganda – Epoch Times

14 Dec 2021 Michael A

…And in fact, they have been learning that propaganda for many years. Unfortunately, we looked away, convincing ourselves that such propaganda was only in big districts such as Los Angeles, or New York, or Chicago, not in our own local, Middle American neighborhoods. For years we kept our children in those schools, convincing ourselves they were safe, that their teachers and the curriculum they were studying were teaching them good things. That those good things would prepare them for living in the free world, able to embrace truth and recognize error immediately. Given the accelerated rate of deception in society, it now seems clear that schools indeed didn’t prepare children to recognize propaganda; instead, they were the ones that fed propaganda to children hook, line, and sinker.

Loudoun County Moms Set Out to Protect Their Children; Now They’re Trying to Save America – Epoch Times

2 Dec 2021 Michael A

[Cooper, is a Black mother with a White husband] Fast forward to May, when Cooper had some quiet time while recovering from major surgery. It was then that she decided she needed to do something about what was being taught in her child’s school. “I see people fighting racism with more racism,” she said. “Critical race theory now is trying to take the children away from the parents to make them social justice warriors. CRT is Marxist ideology. And the last thing I want is my family to be breaking apart.” She used the time to write a speech protesting CRT at the next school board meeting. “CRT is racist. It is abusive. It discriminates against one’s color,” she told the Loudoun County school board on May 11. “Today, we don’t need your agreement. We want action and a backbone for what we asked for today: to ban CRT.” “You cannot tell me what is or is not racist. Look at me. I had to come down here today to tell you to your face that we are coming together. We are strong. This will not be the last greet and meet, respectfully,” Cooper said as she left the podium. The video of her speech went viral.
