No Child Allowed Ahead

Fred on the (lack of) education system. Yesterday my child was busy deconstructing their carbon footprint — in science! Pathetic propaganda.

Yes, I realize that the schools face many other problems, chief among them that much of the country no longer takes schooling seriously. Pious slogans like No Child Left Behind of course mean No Child Allowed Ahead. Discipline a child and his parents sue. Suspend serious troublemakers and you face charges of racial profiling. Disguising the gap in performance between ethnicities takes precedence of teaching. The stupidest fad is grading teachers on how well their students test, it being impossible to get a class of unintelligent, misbehaving, culturally uninterested students to perform well.

Making more bland

In an effort to equalize, homogenize, and create robots that simply regurgitate, we have this stupid move.

It’s a move to help protect the pride of students who don’t make the cut, the school explained in a letter to parents.

“Awards eventually lose their lustre to students who get them, while often hurting the self-esteem and pride of those who do not receive a certificate,” read the letter.

Home school and tutor if you can.

Let men teach boys

Let’s get the boys off drugs and get them being taught by men – to be men. Yes ladies there is a difference between boys and girls. Let’s embrace it, and not fight it.

It is time to get women out of the schooling of boys. It is way past time. Women in our feminized classrooms are consigning generations of our sons to years of misery and diminished futures. The evidence is everywhere. Few dare notice it.
