5.0 out of 5 stars The Harmful Effects of Putting Moral Relativism in Education, July 6, 2003

By 

David A. Huggins (Arlington, TX United States) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Child Abuse in the Classroom (Paperback)

Child Abuse in the Classroom is about parents who have battled against ideological-driven groups who want to indoctrinate children using modern trend and pop culture as the standards of right and wrong. This is a collection of essays and opinion pieces of testimony that was used to pass legislation to guard both children and parents from having the government use nosy surveys and other suggestive materials on children. A must read for anyone who needs quotes for research papers or testimony in trying to stop Planned Parenthood or Sex educational advocates for the sexualization of children.

5.0 out of 5 stars I pulled my kids out of public school after I read this book!, May 10, 2006

By 

Peggy "roxinger" (Southern California) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Child Abuse in the Classroom (Paperback)

It was very hard to believe that the kinds of things written about were actually going on in the public schools until my children started telling me that many of these things were going on in their school. Mrs. Schlafly correctly characterized these things as child abuse, & she couldn't have chosen a better title for this book. I pulled my kids out of school & finished their schooling at home as a result of what I read in this book & what went on in their school. Although the book came out in June of 1984, the public school system has changed very little in the interim because the system has found a way to circumvent the Hatch Amendment. My granddaughter is a 3rd grader and her mother & I aren't at all happy with many of the things being done in her school in the guise of education. She will most likely be schooled at home before all is said & done. This book is a must-read for anyone who cares about their children's education.

This review is from: Child Abuse in the Classroom (Mass Market Paperback)

This book is a compilation of hearings from parents in the 1980s regarding their childrens' deliberate abuse in the classroom in curriculum fashioned to persuade and psychologically probe young and impressionable minds without parents' knowledge or consent. There is a subtle and pervasive social and psychological movement trying to take over our children via the academic world. Very revealing as you are reading the actual hearings from real families. We would fool ourselves to think things have gotten better. As a once public school teacher, I can attest - they have gotten much worse. My child is homeschooled for this reason.
