There is an interesting article at

I hope that I did this correctly...my children are still trying to show Ma how to do stuff on the computer.

And for a stronger version of the author's views, you can click on the version in Home Education Magazine in the right hand column beside the above article.

Reiner is the main "figure" pushing state-indoctrination for bottle-slurpers. He initiated some campaign 3-4 years ago, I forget what it was called. But here's an article I came across at WND yesterday about the same program being pushed in Britain:

Study: Preschool harms
children's development
Homeschool group uses Berkeley research to encourage parents to keep kids at home

A new study on the effects of preschool on children, which finds attendance harms kids' emotional and social development, is being used by a homeschool organization to help encourage parents to educate their children at home.

The study, conducted at UC Berkeley, found that while youngsters gained cognitive abilities via the preschool experience, behavioral problems also increased – especially among kids from wealthy families.

"The biggest eye-opener is that the suppression of social and emotional development, stemming from long hours in preschool, is felt most strongly by children from better-off families," said UC Berkeley sociologist and study co-author Bruce Fuller.

On average, the report finds that the earlier a child enters a preschool center, the slower his or her pace of social development, while cognitive skills in pre-reading and math are stronger when children first enter a preschool program between the ages of 2 and 3.

"Our results for the intensity of attending a center program – measured in hours per week and months per year – are worrisome, while varying across different types of families and children," the report says.

The study found that children who attended preschool at least 15 hours a week displayed more negative social behaviors when compared with their stay-at-home peers.

According to a statement from Berkeley, the research team found that more than 1.4 million children, ages 3 or 4, across the nation are enrolled in preschool programs and attend six hours or more daily. About 5.2 million children – including children under age 5 – attend preschool overall, although Hispanic children are less likely to enter a preschool than white and black youngsters. Nearly two-thirds of all 4-year-olds nationwide attend preschool in the year before starting kindergarten.

Fuller says those elected officials pushing for compulsory preschool should rethink the idea.

"The report's a bit sobering for governors and mayors – including those in California, Florida, Georgia, New York, North Carolina and Oklahoma – who are getting behind universal preschool," Fuller said.

The report, entitled "The Influence of Preschool Centers on Children's Development Nationwide: How Much Is Too Much?" looked at 14,000 kindergartners across the nation.

The Morningstar Education Network is using the results of the survey to point parents in the direction of homeschooling. The organization sponsors a website, ConsideringHomeschooling.org, to encourage Christian parents with preschoolers and those with kids in secular schools to educate their kids at home.

"These negative social behaviors children are displaying are getting worse," said Denise Kanter, Morningstar's research adviser, in a statement. "A child's success in life and academic performance hinges on their healthy social and emotional development. Young children need to be at home bonding with their mothers and fathers."

Preschool Hurts

Post-preschool, too. "The biggest eye-opener is that the suppression of social and emotional development, stemming from long hours in preschool, is felt most strongly by children from better-off families," said UC Berkeley sociologist and study co-author Bruce Fuller. Any kind of public school is a positive danger to the development of those children with the genetic potential to join the intelligentsia. The idea that schools harm kids will shock the morontsia, as would the companion that public-school "teachers" are overpaid nitwits, taking one with another. Governtment has kids -- by law -- from 5 through 16. On the far side of that it has tacked college, 90% of so-called colleges being 'kwalleges offering a one-item menu of leftism to sub-collegiate consumerism majors; on the near side it has added preschool, which 2/3 four-year-olds attend. The last few years geniuses such as jew Rob Reiner have pushed to shunt larval goyim into 0-3 education camps, and at the link we see the same in Britain. Your young to the government are "resources." Better you the parents are kept working to pay double taxes rather than lazing about at home, filling children's heads with ideas and accurate information some government employee will have to strip out somewhere down the line. Govenrment is defined as a monopoly on force, and it seeks a monopoly in all other areas, too. "Any man with a bat can beat you, son." Better to deprive all white men of guns and ideas and mediums for exchanging them. Better to separate them from their sons as early as possible, that 'nothing against the state, nothing outside the state' be passed from generation to generation.

On TV, coming to a preschool near you. "Toddworld" (google it).

ToddWorld is a place where a kid can dance with a porcupine, buy ice cream from a hippo, or eat macaroni and cheese in the bathtub. It's a world where human beings, animals, and even the occasional alien from outer space can not only live together and play together, but talk to each other too.

Dirt Day, LoL. Mud day more like it. Remember everyone, Dirt Day is just as valid and as culturally valuable as your traditional holidays.

oh, yeah. DEATH TO THE JEWS

Anybody here old enough to remember "Little Black Sambo"? I remember eating at Sambo's restaurants. Strange, how it was niggers that got all upset about anything "Sambo," while Sambo himself was a young boy from India.

You made my day. I hope everybody on VNN Forum will read this.

Anybody here old enough to remember "Little Black Sambo"? It was in our school library when I was in Grade 1. Maybe Rounder remembers? Does anyone recall when this storybook was "disappeared"? 1970s? 1980s?

Oh, I just found a "webring" (I don't even know what that is) devoted to the idea that Little Black Sambo is not racialist. Just look at those drawing of Sambo & his family!

My family has the Little Golden Book one, pretty damaged though, and I have a british print of it from 1973. I always keep an eye out for that when I rummage the thrift stores.
