Culture Wars Are Won One Child at a Time"},"content":{"rendered":"<p>Legislating morality and thinking that will be enough to protect children is a mistaken idea.\u00a0 The individuals who seek to prey on young people are working at the personal level and they need to be stopped at the same personal level, one on one.\u00a0 Excluding these individuals from access to your children has to be done by design and diligence.<\/p>\n<p>Look who has access to your kids.\u00a0 The biggest pools of access are in the schools they attend.\u00a0 There you have the school boards who set policy, the principals who oversee the operation and the teachers and other functionaries like librarians, nurses, teacher\u2019s aides and administrators who directly interact with your children.\u00a0 Figuring out how to evaluate the records and personalities of these people is far from a trivial exercise.\u00a0 But this is your responsibility.\u00a0 You\u2019ve got to utilize any and every resource available.\u00a0 Do a search for best practices in evaluating schools for safety risks like sex offenders among the staff.\u00a0 Demand to see the curriculum and actual course materials that your children will be studying.\u00a0 Find out what outside personnel and resources will be used in any enrichment activities the school plans for the coming year.\u00a0 Talk to the teachers individually and engage them with frank questions about their perspectives about anything that the teachers might try to use to interject their personal beliefs on your children.\u00a0 Note these teachers\u2019 appearances and mannerisms.\u00a0 Are they unusual looking?\u00a0 Do they behave at all abnormally?\u00a0 Look for danger signs.\u00a0 An obvious one is an LGBTQ individual.\u00a0 Worse still is someone who presents as transgender.\u00a0 If the school is terrible, then look for an alternative.<\/p>\n<p>And the schools are not the only danger zones.\u00a0 Day care and after school activities such as gym classes, dance classes, sports, scouting, swimming lessons, self-defense classes, art classes, music lessons are all things that must be investigated to feel confident that the personnel are safe and to be trusted.\u00a0 And even then, remember that other children are also to be taken into consideration from a risk point of view.\u00a0 Will your child be supervised in a responsible manner by the personnel present.\u00a0 Or alternatively will you be present to take care of the supervision?<\/p>\n<p>And finally, the other reservoir of concern are your children\u2019s friends and their families and parents.\u00a0 Leaving your kids with strangers is extremely irresponsible.\u00a0 Get to know your kids\u2019 friends and their families.\u00a0 Friends have an enormous influence on growing children.\u00a0 Peer pressure about sex and drug use are extremely hard to overestimate.\u00a0 Kids are horribly suggestible well into their twenties.\u00a0 But do your best to exclude the worst examples among their peers that you can.\u00a0 And the best way to do this is to dominate their free time with activities and playmates that you have planned and vetted.\u00a0 One of the best ways for you to do this is to volunteer for the supervision of the activities that your kids will be participating in.\u00a0 Coaching kids\u2019 sports teams is a great way to see which kids are odd or abnormal.\u00a0 Also, you\u2019ll get to meet the other parents and try to distinguish the good from the bad.\u00a0 But remember your knowledge of other people will always be limited.\u00a0 Always be careful of the situations you leave your kids in when you can\u2019t be there.<\/p>\n<p>And finally come up with a program for making your kids aware of the dangers that they may be exposed to when you\u2019re not around.\u00a0 Have appropriate discussions with your kids about the strange things that have begun to infect the world.\u00a0 Somehow, you\u2019ll have to explain some of the abnormalities that have become commonplace in the modern American landscape.\u00a0 You\u2019ll have to explain things like homosexuality and transgenderism and how they can protect themselves from the people attempting to normalize these behaviors to children.\u00a0 You\u2019re going to have to find resources to explain these concepts in ways that don\u2019t frighten kids but at the same time allow them to adopt a posture that allows them to keep away from it.\u00a0 That is far from a trivial assignment.<\/p>\n<p>This is an enormous amount of work.\u00a0 You can make it easier by living in a state like Florida that is starting to legislate against schools teaching perversion to young children.\u00a0 But even in a \u201csafe\u201d state the burden is still on you to ensure that dangerous predators don\u2019t manage to get access to your children.\u00a0 But if you\u2019re a parent, that is your job and if you\u2019re successful you will win the culture war in the most important sense of the term.\u00a0 You\u2019ll have protected your child from the sexual confusion and nihilism that is the worst damage that the Left inflicts on children.\u00a0 And you\u2019ll maximize your chances of someday having grandchildren that will need to be protected too.\u00a0 But then you\u2019ll have raised children that will be up to the challenge of being those parents.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Legislating morality and thinking that will be enough to protect children is a mistaken idea.\u00a0 The individuals who seek to prey on
