The Patriot Post® · Indoctrinating Our Children

Terence Jeffrey: “Obama’s budget calls for HHS to spend $15 billion over 10 years to fund an Obamacare provision called the Maternal, Infant, and Early Childhood Home Visiting Program. An HHS budget document says this program will send government-funded ‘nurses, social workers, and other professionals’ into people’s homes to ‘improve parenting skills.’ … Education, in its highest sense, is not about teaching children reading or writing or mathematics. It is about forming character. It is about teaching children to love what is right and to fight what is wrong. Obama and others who share his materialist point of view have a perverse understanding of this. They want to form your children’s character. But they do not want to teach your children to love what is right and fight what is wrong. They want to recruit them for the other side. … Obama’s vision of a government that ‘educates’ babies aims at forming the characters of the tragically increasing number of children born illegitimately in the United States – and as many other children as his programs can reach. His strategic aim is to make them allies in his cause.”
