Are public education resources still necessary?

The word "still" is written in the title for a reason.

The "reason" the word "still" remains, is because there are areas where the homes in certain communities or areas were forced to abide by the -ideas- that were presented from a public school system.

These things happened in the United States.  These things happened in Europe and beyond.  There were and still are some REALLY "cold-heartless-schools" in communist areas!

Of course, there is the TERROR of the -boarding school era.-  I don't think a REASONABLE parent would ever want his or her family to go through such horror in the modern era.

However, because of the "stain" that is left on the hearts and minds of the next generation of people, we must ask the question, are public education resources STILL necessary?

The answer is basic and simple.

The people who WORK in them, need to be trained on how to properly treat the children (everything from the cook, to the secretary, to the substitute teacher).  We simply DO NOT touch a child in an inappropriate manner.  The "Laura Ingalls Wilder Days" of using whips on misbehaving immigrant boys is over.  Completely over.  Don't even try it.

The issue is this.

I am writing this in ENGLISH.

I talk to my children in ENGLISH.

There is a "godly" way of defining things in English (hence the first Webster's dictionary is the most Christian Dictionary around...I suppose).....and there is a secular "ungodly" way of defining things in English (a male cat that wants to be a female dog.....simply has that right you know...according to secular English scholars of our day).

As a result, some homes, that do not acquire proper "educational" methods from a decent educational level....to the point where educational-independence can be established, WILL NEED some sort of assistance!  Even if they only talk about the "Himilayan Mountains" which your child may never see in his or her lifetime, all day in the school, at LEAST you KNOW they are getting some sort of exposure to methods of STUDY.

There was a time in USA history where a man could get about a 2nd grade education and own land, because the government was "giving it away."  In reality, the land was not "given" to them.....it was, in fact, stolen.  That is a topic for another day.......were they trying to reach Japan or something????

Morally, a man could live off of a 2nd Grade education, because he could read basic things in the bible and EVERYONE around him ALSO believed the basic things in the bible (with a little twisted false ideas here and there).  Hence, the importance of "religious freedom."  Furthermore, historically in America, some skipped school for most of their years and THEN FINALLY obtained a "degree" when they were about 19 years of age.  If they passed a certain number of tests on reading and math......they could TEACH!!!!

Unfortunately, we don't live in that era.  We live in the "terrorism-era" and the "post-WW2 era" and the "post-roe-v.-wade era".  So we KNOW what kinds of terrible things men have done to each other......without PROPER methods of REASON under his or her belt.  A man of about an 8th grade education, CAN sufficiently meander through the trials of life and put hope in HIGHER and MIGHTIER things.  Most men and women of today of average employ-ability, read at about a 5th to 8th grade level day-in to day-out.  Men who are in prison simply DON'T read ENOUGH.....yet all they need to read, is the right materials, at a regular 8th grade level.

So in that case, a BASIC education that is sufficient would allow the child to function well into adult-hood in a morally sensible way.  An 8th grade level education is sufficient in that regard.

There are cases where it is NOT good to use public education resources.  This could apply to any educational condition anywhere in the world.  1. If they are purposefully indoctrinating something into the children's hearts and minds.  Like hatred towards a race or nation.  2. If they are purposefully allowing, teaching, victim catering or encouraging obscenity. 3. If the people are practicing sending children to a "boarding school" at a very young age, especially if there is no "war-time" or "famine-time" need for one.  Never use a school as a babysitter as it leaves emotional scars, you cannot repair.

Unfortunately the likelihood that a school will have actual CHRISTIAN and/or bible teachings in the PRIVATE school is FEW and FAR-BETWEEN.  There has not been enough influence in some areas to ensure that this is possible.  If there IS one in the area where you live and you KNOW you are having trouble with your child in picking up some self-motivational-study skills, do NOT hesitate to believe that you won't need some assistance sometimes.  As far as I know, simply READING out of ENCYCLOPEDIA can ensure that the child is "reading" something, but ASKING HIM to continue STUDYING and THINKING about the material is another thing.


Essentially, a child's moral standing and influence are far-lowered when the child reaches about the age of 11 or 12.  His peers will not have as much "bully power" over him or her, because the child KNOWS his place in his or her own home.  So if the public school resource is needed at that age until a basic 8th grade education level is established, then the child will know how to stand on solid-ground instead of falling through the "peers know best" trap.

Any child who has a basic 8th grade level education can easily get a GED, at anytime in their lifetime, especially if the influences in the home were "educational" and the child was often reading or doing something challenging.

I thoroughly appreciate and approve of GOOD QUALITY education.  An extended vocabulary makes life interesting.  It makes life less "stressful."  I don't fall for the idea that education itself is "flaw-less."  It just isn't true because there are MANY educated FOOLS.......especially those of the elites who believe in "twisting" truths......in the University level.  Madam' is a Madam..... no matter how many ways it is twisted into a flowering waterfall.
