Why Universal Pre-K Should Be Resisted.
I get that sometimes both parents have to work. I get that it’s hard for a parent to stay home with the kids in those early years. But the Democrat Party is not pushing free pre-k for every three year old out of the kindness of their hearts.
They’re molding your children. As Vladimir Lenin once said, Give me four years to teach the children and the seed I have sown will never be uprooted.”
In America we’ve been giving the government about 16 years. How’s that been working out for us?
The fact is that children come out of school with wild beliefs that have no basis in reality and on top of that they can’t read or do math. It’s amazing to me that Florida Governor Ron DeSantis is receiving massive pushback for supporting a bill that says teachers should push an LGBT agenda on grammar school students. But we all understand their agenda.
Here’s the thing about pre-k that they’re pushing. Pre-K hasn’t been effective for students at all. In fact, there’s evidence that it hurts children.
American Thinker:
Not only is government pre-K an opportunity to indoctrinate children in socialism at an early age but there are long-term negative outcomes that imperil our nation.
For years Democrats have been trying to get a universal pre-K program funded. Now proponents are in a tailspin over the recent study by Vanderbilt University researchers on the Tennessee statewide voluntary pre-K program for low-income students.
The Tennessee researchers found that children who did not attend the program fared better down the road academically and behaviorally. By the end of sixth grade, when compared with children who had not attended the program, children in the study were more likely to be referred to special education services, more likely to have discipline issues, and graduates of the state program performed worse on state academic tests.
This is consistent with more than 60 years of research on the merits of public early childcare. Contrary to what many believe, research shows that early formal schooling destroys a child’s learning ability and can even be detrimental to the behavioral development of mainstream children.
Imagine that! Placing your children with people that don’t love them isn’t great for them, especially in their formative years. It’s a commitment to love and raise our children along with sharing our faith that will save our society.
It is the only thing that can.
