This statement was made in favor of abolishing private schools.  
 Oh, FFS.  
 Yes. Only let us indoctrinate your kids. We've been to college. We know. We know how to teach your children. We know. We. Know.

 It's sad to see how much the U.S. education system has degraded. 
 It is because we aren't spending enough per pupil!! Maybe another sales tax or property tax increase would help! And more DEI hires... 🤥 #homeschool  
 My sister and her husband homeschool their children. There's something very interesting (though unsurprising, imo) about a homeschooled children's behavior compared to kids who attend state-run schools: they seem more rational and possess far more general curiosity. Of course, I'm only speaking from personal experience here. 
 Yes. They are far from the shut-ins that many people claim for no good reason. 

I prefer interacting with them.  
 Excuse me for taking a second of your time to read about another highly educated dangerous communist cunt.
I actually don't read to my kids much, we're wild bunch of night creatures, will improve massively.

 My poor kid has a huge advantage 😱, I've read to him almost every day of his life, oops. 🤷‍♀️ 
 That's amazing, hell cherish it forever ❤️ I used to read them last year when we lived partially in a cottage without dad and made up stories based on their day with some of their hero having the same issue, now home dad usually reads them something. Lately they are overcoming that "shut up mum" phase and like when I sing again, also the stories can be finally about something a bit more than "an elefant lost his balloon"🫣 I totally let it go lately, because they're wild and I'm tired and when I lay down, I'm off🥲😅 But if it means to fight commies, I'll go through pain🤬 
 We're working through Harry Potter now at bedtime, we read all of the Percy Jackson books and he's working his way through those on his own now. I will read to him until he's too cool for it, it's our time ☺️. I didn't realize I was fighting the man at the same time 💪💪 
 Join the Vampire club! 😃 
 Vampire club? 
 Night creatures. 
 Oh that, yeah. Those aren't vampires.
I wish they were vampires.👀😅😅😅 
 Can't believe that was a real headline. So, it is bad to read to your kids because it's unfair to others who don't have ppl reading to them? Tf? lol.  
 Yeah.

But... They really do want subservient people and a normal nuclear family with  involved parents is the worst thing for that.
