What if I said that my kids are more likely to commit suicide due to the stress of being afraid that they’re going to “misgender” someone and get ostracized for doing that? At what point will they try to address my child’s risk of suicide????

Or how your daughter is getting UTIs from holding her bladder all day because she's scared to go in the bathroom and run into a man. Or how your daughter lost her scholarship spot or lifelong dream of going to the Olympics in track/swim/etc to a man. Maybe that could push a kid to suicide?

So I was at a school board meeting and a mother got up and told this exact story, her daughter, age 13 got a bladder infection due to not wanting to encounter males who have been frequenting girls restrooms…..

The only heartening part of that story is that children *know* what's going on and are resisting.

There's gotta be a healthier way. Maybe have a friend spot the entrance to the restroom . . . and pee REAL FAST when the spotter signals!

The healthiest way is to take her out of school... and all her friends and start a homeschool pod.

yup. we need to solve our own problems in every domain. We need a generalized campaign of stressing out the people who are crapping on us to keep their jobs. We start with the ones who seem happy to be doing it. Let them invest in michelin to help compensate their inability to keep a tire on their car from being slashed in the first 24 hours. Make sure to destroy it so that insufficient efforts don't lead to a later accident hurting somebody. Our goal is the pocketbooks of people trying to keep a job they should quit if they can't tell their boss to f**k off.

These girls should have pepper spray with them for chance encounters with dick-bearing cross-dressers in bathrooms.

sure, but even better would be to go there in a group and see that the groomed doofuses whose parents pay no attention to them will leave them alone. In this way, they risk nothing and they see that bullies are pussies and the bullies are reminded that they are pussies. And all this without anything ugly ever happening. And bonus, when the teacher tries to tell them they can't go together they make a gesture indicating that they heard what was said but are doing what they want. Then everybody in this bullshit is told where to get off and the intended victims have the upper hand.

It has become a common problem. My friend told me her daughter never went to the bathroom at high school before the trans idiocy because she was scared she'd find people in there having sex or doing drugs. It was one of the Christian leaders (maybe Graham?) who posted months ago that he was hearing from his psychiatrists friends about numerous girls coming to them traumatized by the bathroom issue at schools and having UTIs because it.

I had a teacher (who knew my family and worked with me during the summer) come over to me during class, and with a funny look on his face, ask me if I had just used the ladies room. Just using the bathroom in a public school in the 70s was enough to make you reek of smoke. When I replied in the affirmative, he was said “that explains the cigarette smell”. If they couldn’t stop the kids smoking in the bathrooms them in a middle class “nice” neighborhood, does anyone actually think they protect your kids from anything else.

a little bit of martial arts for the girls would be very useful. Once the boys who think they are girls see that they'll have their arses handed to them in a way that will be so clearly self-defense they will start being respectful.

Been there with my daughter. Afraid to use the bathroom at school when she was in middle school in 7 th grade. The declaration had been made that if you think you are a different gender than the one God assigned, you could use the coinciding bathroom. Well the middle school boys started taking full advantage of that.

My daughter refused to use the school restroom from that point on. Now in 11th grade & Home schooled. At times school bathrooms are an anything goes area as long as one doesn’t get caught. Our schools are turning into insane asylums.

Here's another idea. Form a group of girls who will all go to the bathroom at the same time when any one of them needs/wants to go. Forget lawsuits, forget reporting anybody to the corrupt doofuses who can't find anything better to do with their lives than "teach" in a woke society. Kick some ass in self-defense.

perhaps you all need to start pulling your kids out of school and setting up your own sportts competitions isolating girls and boys.

There is a trans “woman” who is competing professionally as a cyclist. Last week, “she” was leading the field in an ultra distance race by 240 km (150 miles). Honestly, the only thing that will change this is if biological women refuse to race agains them.

As a substitute teacher, are you seeing girls who purposely look ugly and sometimes masculine? All three of my sister’s granddaughters look awful! Odd hairstyles, greyish skin, ugly clothes. One used to be stunningly gorgeous- I assumed she’d become a model. But now? Ugly on purpose. Why?

I also see it in some women. I saw a woman the other day who had pink hair, was overweight and had on the frumpiest clothes. I thought “that woman is trying to look as ugly as possible”. She was about to enter a store but turned around and went back to her car. I later saw her in the store and she had donned a mask and face shield!!!

Surprisingly no. Most are pretty well put together from an appearance perspective. Lots of high school drama, necessitating unscheduled trips to the counseling office 🧐

Morally or intellectually lazy or both. When it comes to raising your children, sacrifice is the name of the game. But many parents are not vested in that.

The biggest surprise is that you don’t recreate the traditional classroom at home. Yes, you can follow a structured curriculum (and there are tons to choose from), but learning becomes much more organic, just part of everyday life, like when you pass a bank sign that advertises its low interest rate and your child asks what that is. Or when your child asks what the difference is between an atomic and nuclear bomb, and you spend 45 minutes on the internet searching and answering the question. You have more time and, therefore, influence, with them than their peers, and that’s ALWAYS a good thing! Plus, without all the lining up and waiting for 25-30 kids to get from one place to another, plus time for classroom discipline and other distractions, a homeschool day is much shorter than a public or private school day, thereby allowing kids to just be… kids! Their natural curiosity is released and encouraged, and your family time is spent doing things together. I highly recommend it!

Absolutely: do not try to do “school” at home.

We have done our work around the fire pit outside, beside a creek while child built a rope swing, sprawled across the living room floor (most common), and sitting in front of a giant dry erase board on the floor.

When the young person saw a bald eagle by the neighborhood pond, we got to go watch it.

It definitely is NOT all sweet and wonderful all the time. Long division and fractions still must be learned, handwriting practiced, and the like. But, it is, as you say, so do-able.

I think a lot of parents feel overwhelmed by the idea of teaching their own kids. Plus, most have been brainwashed to believe they are not capable.

Heck, every single homeschool parent wonders - more than once - if they are providing all that their child needs in their education. We ALL wonder and doubt.

But at the end of the day, we know that sending our children back to traditional school is just not an option. For some, like me, even a private Christian school would be unlikely simply because our kiddo learns differently than how a traditional classroom environment teaches.

Yes, I sometimes wish we had started sooner. Although I don’t know if we would have incorporated “humanities” instead of simply “history” or used the classical timeline model for teaching humanities, nor gotten a taste for truly beautiful art, had we not spent the first few years in the classical Christian school as we did. Who knows? We made good friends there, although now mostly forgotten since we no longer see them - except for one other family from our kiddo’s class who left to homeschool.

We too were sort of accidentally on purpose when the final year there made evident that our kiddo was NOT suited for a classroom environment due to innate wiring. It was a “we loved it until we hated it” sort of experience.

We do Liberty University Online Academy. Very affordable and my oldest son graduated with a high school diploma and an associates in business at age 18. He will be going to Liberty in the fall to study to become a worship pastor. I find that homeschooling gives the kids so much more time to discover their own passions. During his senior year of high school, my oldest son was hired by our church to lead worship and the band at one of our campuses. My youngest son (13) has discovered he has a passion for fixing things. He has had the time and opportunity to learn from so many older men willing and eager to teach him plumbing, electrician work, etc. My daughter (16) has spent time learning art and developing relationships and mentoring younger girls. She also had the opportunity to go on a missions trip with me to Uganda. Now she is considering being a missionary to Uganda full-time. I highly recommend homeschooling.

Great analogy. Today’s the result of both parents working (assuming both parents are together or at least co-parenting).

When I was growing up moms were home, not working outside the home; one income from Dad sustained the family. Mom’s helped out at schools in various ways & knew what was going on. Thanks to our tax structure today (ever higher) it pushes more women into the workplace to make ends meet. (And we consumers seem to spend much more on nonessentials than in my youth).

Outside working moms are stressed & busy busy. So a family thinks they can’t possibly make it if Mom (or Dad) quits working outside their home in order to homeschool.

Today there are so many great options that help homeschool families; Hillsdale has a K-12 program now.

Imho children in public schools are taught things that they shouldn’t be taught & are NOT taught things they SHOULD be taught...

Ex: leaving out American history, civics, etc (NOT the Howard Zinn version either) but “inclusion” (snarky me) of perverted comprehensive sex ed, Genderbread charts, CRT, etc. (all which ushered in trans & people accompanying bathroom issues).

Schools are sneaky (even in my red state) where some are taking a classroom of kids to another classroom/ meeting place to spend however much time with a “counselor” .... the classroom teacher of same kiddos is forbidden to attend w/ her class).

Today’s counselors are not what they used to be; at least some aren’t. What takes place in that secretive session... who knows?

Here's a story: when my daughter was about ten we visited Rock City Park. My sister was there, too. Deep in the site we heard a bear (the people who run the place told us to keep an eye out for bears, btw). Now, I'd never heard a bear before, but there is that old instinct embedded in us all that can identify real danger, unconsciously, and do you know what I did? I ran. I left my child and my older sister well behind. Did not even pause.

I have thought about this episode many times over the years (and daughter sometimes teases me about it. She's tough and resilient.). Until we are tested it's hard to know for sure what we'd do in a given situation. I hope to do better next time!

My daughter is 9 and she is so smart and capable of understanding what I explain to her about this crazy world we live in. Best decision I ever made to start explaining and not shelter her and try to explain later when it’s too late. I started during the time of masks when she was just starting first grade. She just finished 3rd grade. She knows about trans, and pedophiles, (not the full version, just that they are mentally ill people who like to watch or look at naked children in their free time rather than watching say golf or baseball like normal people) she knows about democrats, fake news media, CNN, republicans, politics, vaccines, Biden and Trump. We pray for DeSantis and Trump and good to win over evil every night! She lets me know every time someone at school says something, (or when her grandma had cnn on what the headline said) and she knows her best friend who says I hate Trump is just being brainwashed by the media, that her parents watch fake news, and they are not capable of seeing the truth, so that’s why we do NOT try to educate or inform them. we just smile and change the subject, and thank the Lord that we are on the right side and can see the truth. And we can pray for them to see the truth. It’s sad but necessary: Mothers and fathers must educate their children first and very early on these topics.

For the record, my kids have been both homeschooled and Christian schooled - never public schooled. To be honest, my kids kind of just shake their heads at the nonsense and laugh, but I was thinking about the kids who are in public school, who are subjected to this crap 24/7. What about their mental health????

It is sad. If they are not shaking their heads and laughing, then they are internalizing nonsense, and it's either coming out as a repetition of that nonsense or as depression and self-harm.

Amen! We, and two other families I learned of this week, will not put our kids in reg school at any cost. She will be homeschooled or will go to a vetted priv school.

People should be fighting for school choice laws in their states. Allocate the per-student tax dollars to families for any legitimate educational expense. Make the government schools compete for business. Several states have already done this, Florida included. If government schools exist, they will be like they are now, or worse. You can't get rid of every teacher already in the system, and all the new ones are "educated" by the teacher's colleges, so thinking that the government schools can be fixed with a school board seat here and a library book there is folly.

Putting cameras and microphones in classes and halls would be an excellent start at curbing the nonsense. Why is that not a thing? Parents alone could access it.

OMG, no.

You don't need surveillance to know what is going on.

Expand full comment

How would you propose knowing what is going on in the classroom? Not all people can homeschool. Is putting up cameras wrong where you suspect wrong doing? If your mom is in a nursing home and she has bruises, is it OK? How about in a daycare setting? You are not putting cameras in the bathroom or locker room. Just in classrooms. I am honestly curious what you think is wrong and what you propose that would be better to guard child safety in the physical and teaching sense. Interest totally piqued! Yay!

I see your point, but I was a high school teacher once, and this feels like an invasion of my classroom environment. Not all teachers are bad or even democrat. I was a teacher in California. In public school. My students loved me and I have nothing to hide yet I don’t want to be under surveillance while I teach and have parents watching me. Too creepy. I’m a great teacher with a masters degree and I can get another job, without surveillance , so now you’ve pushed a great teacher out.

Thank you for your thoughts. I wish all teachers were great at teaching, treated children with respect, did not try to indoctrinate them into socialism, communism, transism - you know the list. And I appreciate the feelings of not wanting to be watched. But how about if it were for your protection as well? Similarly to how it is with police officers who are now required to wear body cams. Some didn't like it at first. NOBODY likes being watched, but it keeps uniformed bad cops from (largely) doing bad acts, but if they do, it is on camera. Conversely, cops being accused of say - shooting an unarmed man (but the body cam shows otherwise, would appreciate the video proof exonerating them. Sub in "teacher or school official" in for cop. Why is it creepy to have interested parents? Do you get creeped out when you have parents come into the class as volunteers? Creeped out when the principal comes in to watch? Do they still do that? I bet you don't. why? Because you are good. I bet sucky ones care.

My wish is that you would see the merit in parents being able to see into the class and there being a record of the day and would stay rather than going to some place where you could remain in secret.

Wait. WAS a teacher or are a teacher? You have both.

Absolutely wrong. I say get rid of ALL cameras.

I appreciate that, but that does not answer my question. And I am guessing not all cameras. I wouldn't push for an answer, but you did object strenuously. I am not trying to trap you. I am honestly curious. You may have a point I hadn't considered, but will if I find it compelling. I have interacted with you plenty of times and am genuinely interested in something you feel that passionately about. : )

remember. self-defense is not violence. It is a healthy reaction to violence. Our society has abdicated its responsibility, we need to take control of the situation. Your daughters, their girlfriends, their male friends too need to work together. I'm sure it's a small minority of kids who are being annoying. They are being encouraged by stupid people called teachers and principals who live in fear of losing their jobs if they don't please other losers at the school board who fear losing their jobs. The problem is for your kids and you to solve. I like their chances against bullies who don't know what bathroom to use. The bullies will back down when confronted and even faster when outnumbered.

Here's the thing: starve them of MONEY. Look what West Virginia just did:

For decades, West Virginia families watched as other states empowered parents to choose new or different learning options for their children. But despite the best efforts of parents, the Mountain State offered few choices for families whose local schools did not meet their children’s interests, talents, challenges, and needs, or for families who could not afford private education or pursue homeschooling.

In 2019, things changed for the better. Thanks to the work of the nonprofit Cardinal Institute for West Virginia Policy, which built a coalition to expand school choice in the state, West Virginia lawmakers enacted several new programs to provide parents with increased access to a variety of fresh learning options.

Just as the 2022-23 school year hit its stride, the state’s flagship private school choice program, the Hope Scholarship, was ruled constitutional by the West Virginia Supreme Court. Before the now-removed injunction was put in place, more than 3,000 students had been approved to use the scholarship. For these families, and more who will apply, this ruling is fantastic news.

For all parents interested in exercising their K-12 options, this guide provides a full update on the newest selections available for West Virginia families.

Charter Schools: In-Person and Online

For parents looking for a tuition-free alternative to their locally zones schools, public charter schools opened their doors to West Virginia families this year, in person and online!

Public charter schools do not charge tuition and are required to serve all students regardless of whether those students have struggled in school or have disabilities. Public charter schools are not created, managed, or governed by county boards of education; accordingly, they can enroll students outside of their traditional school zones or districts.

Four public charter schools are now open, including two different schools that offer full-time, statewide online learning. Full-time online schools include Virtual Prep Academy, which is available for students in grades K-10, and West Virginia Virtual Academy, which is accessible for students in grades K-12. Both schools still have seats available and are enrolling students for the current school year.

Never Mandy. Your children are not marginalized. They are raised by parents with sound minds who encourage their children to think and foster resilience which makes them a threat to the school freaks and the court jesters of global submission.

As soon as Tucker spoke on his show about the first of many UFO sightings, I told my husband “THIS is going to be ‘the thing’ that helps the cause for the world to band together and create the ‘New World Order’ to stop these UFOs. He thought I was on to something because the jabs and C plandemic weren’t doing it.

I think we all need to be aware how this could overtake the rest of the world with more psyop fear.

In the Olivet discourse Christ warned of false prophets and false christs who would arise in the end times and show great signs and wonders to deceive, if possible, even the elect. Matthew Ch 24.

Are these UFO sightings (so called) part of the deception?

I heard many years ago when the rapture happens those left would or could say it was aliens/ufo’s. That’s why so many disappeared.

Expand full comment

There is no Scriptural support for a "rapture" as postulated by Hal Lindsay, Tim LaHaye and others including the author of the "Tipping Point" substack. They hold to the idea that suddenly believers will be snatched away.

The Bible teaches that the church remains in the world until Christ returns. At that point in time those believers who have died will be resurrected and those who are alive when He returns will be caught up together with them to meet Him "in the air" i.e as He descends. Refer to 1 Thessalonians 4, 15 - 18. After that is the final judgement of all people living and dead.

Expand full comment

There simply are different views on this - pre-trib, mid-trib, post-trib. Nobody knows until that day. There is no scriptural proof for any of them, just thoughtful analysis for each view.

The Christ character also said he would return, while those listening to him speak were still alive. That didn’t happen. And people still believe he was some kind of god.

I wonder why they don’t also believe in Zeus. There is exactly the same amount of proof of his existence as there is for the Jesus character.

There’s actually zero. But there’s lots of evidence that the Jesus stories are just retelling of older myths from Egypt and sims Ian times.

Christ also said he did not know when the return would occur, only the Father knows.

I believe it was Paul, who wrote to encourage those concerned that He hadn’t returned in their time. He said that to God, a thousand years is like a day, and a day like a thousand years.

If you can’t imagine a mind that immense, if you choose not to believe, you can still be respectful.

And yes, there is plenty of evidence of Jesus’ existence. There are books dealing with the subjects you’re concerned about. Lots of them.

The Jesus character clearly said he would return in their lifetime. He didn’t. Mostly because it’s all mythology.

Closing narrative from Architects Of Fear episode

“Scarecrows and magic and other fatal fears do not bring people closer together. There is no magic substitute for soft caring and hard work, for self-respect and mutual love. If we can learn this from the mistake these frightened men made, then their mistake will not have been merely grotesque, it would at least have been a lesson. A lesson, at last, to be learned.”

Really enjoy Tucker but his buying into the UFO narrative was a real disappointment (along with that of Matt Walsh). They both framed it in terms of, "see this proves the government has been lying for decades". The new narrative reinforced their existing bias (i.e. the government are liars) so they accepted it without critical thought. That this UFO story is a lie would be the more rational explanation.

We are going to need to step our game up here, these are incredibly dishonest people we are dealing with. They know our biases and will use them to manipulate us.

Two, three conflicting statements can be true. But if there are UFOs, then saying there weren't would be lying. If there are no UFO, and saying they exist would be lying. If there are not space alien UFOs but something else, this could be lying or possibly something else. I really don't know what is going on, but like a whole lot of people, I know SOMETHING is up. Because nothing happens by accident with these Cretinous Dear Leader types. Maybe with miscalculation, but not by accident.

Whatever the case, humanity all these years has NOT be imperilled by UFO's real or imaginary. And second, the Greatest Propaganda Achievement in history (covid) makes this sudden fascination with UFO potentially troublesome because we know beyond contestation that people will believe anything and can even be manipulated into a democide willingly ... and with their stamp of self-approval. Whatever it is, it will be interesting.

I am not concerned with UFO’s or aliens in the least. At best, they’re psyops and propaganda. I’ll stick with the Truth of God’s Word and I know that Jesus is coming back for His church and it’s going to be soon! That’s my focus, not UFO’s.
