@DisaffectedPod Our public school is horrible, but I’ll give them credit for keeping Home Ec, shop class (they build actual sheds and all kinds of things), rudimentary automechanics, accounting and a bunch of other trade courses.

I have so much respect for you, sir.

Dear @WhiteHouse, my name is Rodney Smith Jr., founder of Raising Men & Women Lawn Care Service in Huntsville, Alabama. Through our 50 Yard Challenge, over 6,000 kids across the country have signed up to mow free lawns for the elderly, disabled, veterans, active-duty military, first responders, and single parents. With America celebrating its 250th birthday this year and me also being born on July 4th, I wanted to humbly ask if a few kids from our program and myself could travel to Washington, D.C. to help mow the White House lawn for this historic celebration.

More than anything, I want these kids to see how a simple act of service something as ordinary as mowing a lawn for someone in need can lead to extraordinary places. What better lesson in community service than showing them that helping others can take them all the way to our nation’s capital? I’d also love to bring my American flag-themed mower in hopes that the President might sign it, so I can later auction it off and donate 100% of the proceeds to a nonprofit supporting veterans. It would be a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to highlight the importance of service, patriotism, and the impact young people can have when they choose to make a difference. 🇺🇸

Bad parenting is facilitated by the K-12 system by ensuring parents don't have to interact with their own children.

School near me opens at 6:30 in the morning & closes at 6pm. Who is raising that child? Why is that accepted? What is that child going to grow up thinking about parenthood & family?

This is what K-12 has perpetuated. It took decades to get to this point & ignoring a huge part of the reason why/how parents became so hands-off doesn't help fix the situation.

@0riettaRose @TBR24_7 Not only that but they’re forgoing homework now (even when children desperately need it), which is something parents have always helped their children with and it brought parents into the learning fold.

@eva_kurilova My kids took naps til they were 5. They slept whether they wanted to or not. I laid with them until they fell asleep if I needed to.

Minnesota’s new math standards are being rolled out next year. Good luck, Minnesota.

Our church raised millions of dollars to build a daycare and all I thought was: why didn’t we raise the money to make sure the moms in our parish can be home with their children?

A mother raising children at home is not opting out of the economy.
She is running the most sophisticated management operation in human history — forming the next generation of every civilization that will ever exist.

@Slimvt9 @VitaminVVisions @MrRudeyHolla @Dbirdfatty @MrDanielBuck If more teachers stood their ground things would change.

@nickitruesdell We do all but home cooked lunches. I’d have to change that to “homemade”.

@HannahWardEdu Do it!! Hair grows back!!

[Jessica's Open Door @Jessworldview]

I have been very vocal about the issues in our educational system in our local community groups lately and the processes absolutely despise it. They refuse to even attempt a genuine rebuttal. It’s sad.

[Jessica's Open Door @Jessworldview]

@thebiblioblonde @JoshPhillipsPhD Agree. I have a huge sweet tooth and these cookies are disgusting.

@TheGreatB00ks @HarrisonGarlic1 @OfficialNotDr Interesting. I should subscribe and listen. My son and I are reading the Odyssey this summer. He’s 15. Would the podcast be a suitable listen for us as we read the book?

[Jessica's Open Door @Jessworldview]

@rheingold74 @AlexAndBooks_ Same! And I keep getting books from the library too. I buy nearly every classic they sell. Plus I borrow books all the time. I’m reading four at once plus all the books I’m reading to my kids. Their homeschool curriculum will force me to read everything on our shelves, though!

@jmasseypoet Jessi Lawless has a good video explaining how Pride is now embarrassing and that they’re just proving the conservatives right. She hates that her community does this. But she’s awesome. “My Pride Colors are red, white and blue”.

[Jessica's Open Door @Jessworldview]

@SidneyG41629545 @JeremyTate41 Interesting take. Abolish grading and rely on the standardized tests (since grades are obviously being inflated)?

@Athena_Lioness Hi. Also a reformed leftist/liberal. It was lonely for a while but then I found people who didn’t care if our politics were different.

[Jessica's Open Door @Jessworldview]

@eva_kurilova I was lucky to have easy babies.

[Jessica's Open Door @Jessworldview]

@nickitruesdell That is so wholesome. I love it.
