Keeping Kids Komotose

This is a true story.  Only the names are changed to protect the innocent child. 

 

I have friends whose little boy and little girl are rambunctious.  Energetic. Can be difficult.  I like having them around.  They are fun.  They are active.  They come to stay with Peggy and me from time to time.  They are like surrogate grandkids.

 

But, fun doesn’t fly in public elementary education.  Fun is a problem.  Fun is difficult for teachers.  So, the little girl and the little boy were sent home from time to time for behavior issues.  Behavior like they talked in class.  Behavior like they had a hard time sitting in their seats.

 

So, the school at first quietly and then more insistently recommended Ritalin.  They had a doctor that would prescribe it.  The option was they didn’t want their kids in the school any more and they would have to go to a private school. 

 

I advised that might be a good thing.  But the school won.  First the little girl (8) was drugged; Then a year later her little brother (7) was rendered comatose.  Oh they’re behaved now.  Like zombies.  The little girl is on drugs for over a year, he’s just begun.

 

The school doesn’t have any more problems.  There are several kids in the class who are doped up so the teacher doesn’t have to do any actual work.  Class size?  Little girls has 22, little boys, 28.  Boy that’s tough odds.

 

I am angry, frustrated, and will do everything in my power what little I have to see to it public education is abolished in the USA. 

 

That way the drug pushers will be put out of business.  Read this article about the abuse inflicted on our kids by the schools of America by the drug pushing teachers.

 

I should blame the parents, I should blame the pediatrician, but I blame the school.  It all started there.

 

Abolish public education.  Nationwide Vouchers.  Make having kids as customers instead of a nuisance a reality.
