Thrive birth to five? Lifelong Learning? Arne said they wanted our children cradle to grave. And we have sat back and allowed it.

Lies do not become true simply because we refuse to look at our history.

The history of American Education is the ugliest untold story of modern history.

NEA technology report to Donald J. Senese Ronald Reagan’s an Assistant Secretary of Education in 1982

“Teachers and Technology
If the problems of new technology were limited to understanding and learning the operation of machines, there would be no need for this committee and its recommendations.

Were this the case, the potential of technology in education would be barren, indeed, and teachers would increasingly leave the profession or abandon hope and resign themselves to becoming subhuman cogs in a mechanistic system of instruction.

Nothing, of course, could be further from the ⭐️humanistic⭐️ traditions of the teaching profession .

In its coming involvement' with a technology of instruction, the profession will be faced once again with the challenge of leadership-by example and by effective communication-the challenge of ⭐️⭐️convincing the public that education is much more than treating students like so many Pavlovian dogs, to be conditioned and programmed into docile acceptance of a do-it-yourself blueprint of the Good Life. ⭐️⭐️

Fall 1969

It is now 2025

Has the mental health crisis been going on this long? Or has our ignorance perpetuated the final solution??

The following is a quote directly from the introduction of this report

“Over the last fifty years, there has been a growing concern over the number of mentally ill and emotionally disturbed children in the United States and an in- creasing dissatisfaction with the unavailability of mental health services . When the previous Joint Commission on Mental Illness and Health, for unavoidable reasons, was unable to cover this important area, both professional and concerned citizen groups pressed for a study of the mental health needs of children. Members of Congress also responded to the need and, in 1965, Senator Abraham Ribicoff introduced an amendment to the Social Security Amendments of 1965 (P.L. 89-97)
which provided the funds and framework for the Commission's work.

Thirteen national professional associations joined the incorporators of “the commission” to form a board of directors. The board with a grant from the national Institute of mental health (NIMH) developed a staff and enlisted more than 500 the country is leading authorities on early childhood, adolescence, and the young adult to form task forces, substantive committees, and the collection of specialized information. The collaborative and participation of both affiliate member organizations and specialists AT EVERY GOVERNMENTAL AGENCY LEVEL provided the commission with invaluable and additional contributions.”

Who wrote these words?

“Oh you blind leaders who seek to convert the world by labored disputations. Step out of the way or the world must fling you aside.

GIVE US THE YOUNG. GIVE US THE YOUNG and we will create a new mind and a new earth in a single generation.

"' Who claims the young? . . . tells the leaders of the world to step aside? . . . aims to create a new mind? . . . a new earth?

Benjamin Kidd, an English sociologist who died in 1916, wrote the above lines. He was but one of the group of writers, teachers, theologians, philosophers, economists, and sociologists who believe the world is theirs. They claim the young because the young can be easily trained. The emotions of the young can be controlled and behavior managed to fit the group's desires. Other, equally bold statements of intentions are quoted throughout this book.

Are you young? They claim you as their property. Are you a parent? Your children are their b***y . Grandparents, did you hear their claims and boastings many years ago? Did you understand the claim jumpers and boasters were serious? . . . that they meant to carry off the spoils and r**e the future?

Are you a teacher? Would you be the vassal of those who seek to overlord both you and those who come to you in trust?

This book, published in 1981 by Erica Carle GIVE US THE YOUNG" is an effort to explain the intentions of the self-proclaimed creators of the 'new earth,' and to show how the intentions are being transformed into education and action.

If you are young, be aware of what is being done to education to catalog your thinking.

You are expected to help achieve the goals of the self-appointed overlords who claim your fidelity and your person.

If you are a parent, it is up to you to inform, explain to, and protect your children.

If you are a grandparent, listen now, and understand.

If you are a teacher, it is you whom the overlords have hoped to use to accomplish their purpose. And then, after you have done their work, they mean to cast you aside as no longer necessary to their 'new earth .'

Young ones, parents, grandparents, teachers. . . listen all,

Imagine someone going into your children's school or com- ing into your home who does his best to demoralize your children by dampening their enthusiasm for life and respect for themselves, degrading you and any moral principles you have taught them, and attempting to alienate them from you so future guidance and admonitions will have little effect.

Sound familiar? WE WERE WARNED!

No Child Left Behind did not go away- because it was led by Republican Lamar Alexander of TN- and President Barack Obama- teachers Unions no longer protested because their mental hygiene initiative since the early 1900s had been achieved - no longer do they complain about “teach to test” and “cookie cutter” children because academics have almost been erased altogether.

Republican parents on the other hand have been Tavistocked into thinking the mental health madness is actually a result of COVID.

Texas’ womenonthewall recorded this statement 7 years ago during the first Trump administration.

Now that we are in our second Trump administration-

using these facts regarding ESSA- jumping to shuttering FedEd will not stop 50 states and ESSA…let’s focus on the disease not the symptoms.

One department being dispersed to HHS Labor etc will change nothing. Where are these organizations NOW?

Is our ignorance to what was going on then an excuse to stay silent now? I encourage every parent to listen to conservatives in Texas if you won’t listen to this mother in Virginia.

It’s extremely easy to look up your department of education’s ESSA applications and deauthorizations. Youngkin has reauthorized during his administration. If you think one man is going to save your children and mine think again- he didn’t do it then as this video shows (DeVos explicitly named) do you think he will do it now?

We are not a nation with one authoritarian…or have you welcomed that idea simply because it is DJT? Silence is acceptance. Silence is complicity. Remove yourself from the herd.

Some more quotes from recent readings…

Dr. William Coulson, explaining Outcome Based Education (OBE) :

“This is the idea where we drop subject matter and we drop Carnegie Unites (grading from A-F) and we just let students find their way, keeping them in school until they manifest the politically correct attitudes. You see, one of the effects of self-esteem (Values Clarification) programs is that you are no longer obliged to tell the truth if you don’t feel like it. You don’t have to tell the truth because if the truth you have to tell is about your own failure then your self-esteem will go down and that is unthinkable.”

Charles F. Potter, Humanist :

“Education is thus a most power ally of humanism, and every public school is a school of humanism. What can the theistic Sunday school, meeting for an hour once a week, and teaching only a fraction of the children, do to stem the tide of a five-day program of humanistic teachings?”

John B. Watson, psychologist, founder of Behaviourism : child centered- student centered anything- came from Watson

“Men are built, not born. Give me the baby, and I’ll make it climb and use its hands in constructing buildings of stone or wood. I’ll make it a thief, a gunman or a dope fiend. The possibilities of shaping in any direction are almost endless.”

Some quotes from recent things I’ve been reading

Dr. Chester M. Pierce, Psychiatrist, address to the Childhood International Education Seminar, 1973 :

“Every child in America entering school at the age of five is insane because he comes to school with certain allegiances to our founding fathers, toward our elected officials, toward his parents, toward a belief in a supernatural being, and toward the sovereignty of this nation as a separate entity. It’s up to you as teachers to make all these sick children well by creating the international child of the future.”


Dr. G. Brock Chisholm, President, World Federation of Mental Health :

“We have swallowed all manner of poisonous certainties fed us by our parents, our Sunday and day school teachers, our politicians, our priests, our newspapers, and others with a vested interest in controlling us. Thou shalt become as gods, knowing good and evil, good and evil with which to keep children under control, with which to impose local and familial and national loyalties and with which to blind children to their glorious intellectual heritage The results, the inevitable results, are frustration, inferiority, neurosis and inability to enjoy living, to reason clearly or to make a world fit to live in.”

John Dewey, Educational Psychologist :
“Teaching school children to read was a perversion and high literacy rate bred the sustaining force behind individualism.”


Report: Action for Mental Health, 1961 :
“The school curriculum should be designed to bend the student to the realities of society, especially by way of vocational education the curriculum should be designed to promote mental health as an instrument for social progress and a means of altering culture.”
