Update!
Ok, so I recently learned about the “I Pledge…” video that is to be shown to students (I told you I was a little out of the loop). To be honest I really don’t like the whole wording of being “a servant to the President”, and it would be better if they displayed a picutre of America rather than Obama’s face, but overall the message is…positive. It’s still not worth teaching our children to turn our backs if we have a different opinion, if you ask me.
I think overall parents forget what a huge influence we can be on our children. Just because something is taught or shown in school one day doesn’t mean that it will shape the future of the child forever. I think this is easily proven by the fact that if parents get involved in educating their children about drugs/alcohol/sex, kids are more likely to make wise choices as opposed to if they just learn about it in school. The same can be said for politics.
Parents: talk to your children!!!
