Forty-five states and the district of Columbia have adopted education standards for our children. That’s the problem, who are these people and if we have a sagging education system as they claim to justify this program called Common Core why is that the case to begin with? What is the matter with the administrators and the educators we have now? Is it an implementation problem with some unqualified teachers, there has to be a reason why our school systems are sagging. Maybe less attention should be made on taking Prayer and the Pledge of Allegiance out of our schools which they never should have been taken out in the first place and more emphasis placed on applying educational methods to our children that have been successfully used for decades.

This is from a post by Ben Evansky for Fox News: “But many parents see the initiative as a bid by the federal government to take over the education system. They are also angry over the “data mining” of students’ personal information, and say the stepped-up standards are not age-appropriate and are leading to anxiety and depression in their children.”

Parents want to see decisions as to what children learn at the local level. The liberals (socialists) are at it again. The top two rules that they have of winning over a society is infiltrate the unions and the schools and we all can see that is exactly what is happening. You don’t have to be a rocket scientist in the early years of our children’s education to teach adding, subtraction, division, multiplication, fractions, American history, reading and basic science. What they are doing with this common core is causing depression with the children because they don’t understand it and the parents can’t help because its all new to them. If a parent try’s to help the child, the child says “I will get a “F” mom because that’s not the way I’m suppose to get the answer.”

These socialists will just not leave well enough alone. This is a very big concern from what I have been reading especially to the mother. This will definitely be a big campaign issue in November and it will be watched closely by parents as to who can get a handle on it. These socialists who are entering every segment of our society just don’t give up. We must defeat them from their goal of taking over our society.They want to transform America. I believe we have heard this before from a guy named Obama.
