I sat at the table one hour every night with my three, made sure they were doing homework. If they had none, they read one of there school books.
Did they forget to turn it in sometimes. Yep

History is the can be the best or worst subject you take in school.
I always loved history.....but never did have a good teacher.
There is much opportunity to throw your bias into a history class.
If its going to be taught by communists.......it should be elective. Why force a kid to endure such blatant indoctrination? Very perceptive post.

No idea Sam. My three sons (age 30, 28 and 21) went to school in a number of places and even a few countries. The eldest are fine out on their own, happy. The youngest is wrapping a degree at A&M in mechanical engineering this semester and has a rock solid job booked. So, with my wife's great parenting they all have done all right...
Conduct is the best proof of character.

![[Linked Image from i.postimg.cc]](https://i.postimg.cc/9M4QtCVx/27199.jpg) #2 son sent this to me a couple years back when he was in HS. He was told this was a class assignment,and not to bring it home... That’s just odd. I can’t think of a better way to get something told to a parent than to tell the kids NOT to tell their parents.

Evidently this is the most closely guarded secret in America today. In my county in Florida, the curriculum and course materials, textbooks and such, are not easily, or possibly not available at all online. Not at the State level either.
This morning, I have spoken to 4 different folks at the county level. Now I am waiting for. Supervisor to return my call. This search started over a week ago.
We often wonder why today’s kids are so susceptible so communism, and why they don’t seem to have any idea of real American history. At this point, I posit that it is because of what they are being exposed to in taxpayer funded government schools. In our local schools they teach - Earthlore
- Skylore
- Making the Weaker Argument Appear the Stronger
- Corrupting the Youth of Athens
I fully suspect they do not believe in the gods in whom the city believes, but in other daimonia that are novel.
