Great Moments in Public Education
A school district in Massachusetts has banned the Pledge of Allegiance from its classrooms, Fox News reports:
Charles Skidmore, principal of Arlington High School in Arlington, Mass., has offered to allow students to recite the pledge before school begins--but in the school's foyer and not in the classrooms, as 17-year-old Harrington had hoped.
Kathleen Bodie, Arlington superintendent of schools, told Fox News Radio that "The principal wanted to be very respectful about the pledge and be sensitive to the Supreme Court ruling that students are not forced to say the pledge. He wanted to be sensitive to the diverse group of students we have."
Bodie said there has been reluctance to put the district's teachers in a position of reciting the pledge, and she acknowledged that some have raised concerns about its inclusion of the words "under God."
Now you may think these teachers are unpatriotic. But there's another possible explanation. Consider this Associated Press dispatch:
The school superintendent in Springfield, Mass., has taken responsibility for tests given to the district's 11th- and 12th-graders that were rife with spelling, grammatical and factual errors.
Two tests given in May to about 2,600 students contained about 100 errors combined.
The mistakes included the phrases "truning around" and "For God's skae," as well as a note on one test that read "This is the end of the Test," when there were two more pages.
If Massachusetts teachers can't get simple phrases like these right, how can they possibly be expected not to bungle the Pledge of Allegiance?

Help oppose United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child
Today parental rights are coming under assault from federal judges who deny or refuse to recognize these rights. Adding further danger to the child-parent relationship, international law seeking to undermine the parental role is advancing on the horizon. Together, these threats are converging to create a "perfect storm" that looms over the child-parent relationship.
According to Amazines.com:
The United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child, often referred to as CRC or UNCRC, is an international convention setting out the civil, political, economic, social and cultural rights of children. Nations that ratify this international convention are bound to it by international law. Compliance is monitored by the United Nations Committee on the Rights of the Child which is composed of members from countries around the world. Once a year, the Committee submits a report to the Third Committee of the United Nations General Assembly, which also hears a statement from the CRC Chair, and the Assembly adopts a Resolution on the Rights of the Child.[4]
Governments of countries that have ratified the Convention are required to report to, and appear before, the United Nations Committee on the Rights of the Child periodically to be examined on their progress with regards to the advancement of the implementation of the Convention and the status of child rights in their country. Their reports and the committee's written views and concerns are available on the committee's website.
The United Nations General Assembly adopted the Convention and opened it for signature on 20 November 1989 (the 30th anniversary of its Declaration of the Rights of the Child).[5] It came into force on 2 September 1990, after it was ratified by the required number of nations. As of December 2008, 193 countries have ratified it,[1] including every member of the United Nations except the United States and Somalia.[4][6]
Two optional protocols were adopted on 25 May 2000. The first one restricts the involvement of children in military conflicts, and the second one prohibits the sale of children, child prostitution and child pornography. Both protocols have been ratified by more than 120 states.[7][8]
This poses a serious threat both to parental rights and to U.S. sovereignty, as the UNCRC dictates not only that the federal government must intrude into the family sphere to an unprecedented degree, but also how the federal government is to monitor and govern the actions of our families. Parental rights would be replaced by "the best interests of the child" as defined, ultimately, by an international committee of 18 people in Switzerland.

SR 519 Approaches Half-way Point
The Senate resolution opposing ratification of the UN’s Convention on the Rights of the Child is very near the half-way point, with 16 of the needed 34 cosponsors already signed on. To reach this level of success in so short a time is very encouraging – but they still have a ways to go, and need to get there quickly!
If your senator is a Republican, there is no reason for him not to sign on, so parentalrights.org is targeting that group this week. The only reason many have not cosponsored yet is that they don’t think it is important enough to make the effort – and your phone calls are needed to change that perception. If they get enough phone calls about an issue, it becomes important, so we need you to make SR 519 vital to them!
If Your Senator Is a Democrat...
...don’t quit calling. This is not a partisan issue, and there is a chance your senator may sign on. Find their Washington number at ParentalRights.org/Status, and urge them to oppose international law by co-sponsoring SR 519. And tell your friends so they can call, too!
If Your Senator Is a Republican and Not a Cosponsor...
...he is one of the targets this week. Please take the following actions:
1. Call your Senators. Tell them we don’t want international law running our country. Tell them to seize this opportunity to win a victory against the Obama agenda.
To easily check their status and get their Washington phone numbers, find your state on the list at ParentalRights.org/Status. If you have already called their D.C. office, please call their District Offices at the numbers listed below. Alternate every couple of days and keep calling both offices!

Call Your Congressman If your Congressman is not already a cosponsor of the Parental Rights Amendment (HJRes. 42), call and urge him to sign on. As the elections approach, candidates from both parties are beginning to realize that the parental rights issue is vital to all Americans. Representatives from either party may wish to sign on now to help their re-election campaigns. You might want to mention this to them, as well.
To take action, visit ParentalRights.org/States and click on your state. Then, if your Congressman is not already a cosponsor, click on his name to get his contact information – and give him a call. Tell him you believe parental rights will be a major issue this election, and that it can only help his chances if he defends parental rights by cosponsoring HJRes. 42, the Parental Rights Amendment. Be courteous, and thank the staff workers for their time.

Review: God's Promises for Boys
God's Promises for Boys By Jack Countryman & Amy Parker
God's Promises for Boys is a children's book directed to boys, hence the title, though my daughter enjoyed it also. The appropriate age for this book would be anywhere between 4-8 years(depending on how mature your child is) This book has 127 pages of God's promises as found in the Bible. There are many different subjects that pertain to a young boys life. Each subject has several bible verses to implement that part of the book. There are also cute pictures throughout the book to peak your child's interest.
My son who is 5 has enjoyed looking through the pictures(he isn't a reader yet). I have been reading to him and he doesn't seem too interested in what I am reading. On the other hand when his sister read this to him they sat on the couch soaking everything in for about 45 minutes. I like the strong scriptural references in this book. They show how the Bible has answers and solutions to every day life. Even for a little boy! The only frustration I have with this book is that the translation of the Bible verses are from "International Children's Bible" we are King James readers and my kids get a little confused by the different wordings.
I think this would be a great reference tool for all growing boys. This is a book that may not stay on the bookshelf.
I received this book free to review, as a member of BookSneeze.

Why Public School Is Not An Option
Excerpts from Leah's Labyrinth
1.“You shall not steal.” (Ex 20:15)
The public education system is inherently corrupt and breaks the eighth commandment. The government forces people to pay for the education of other people’s children.
2.“Whoever is not with me is against me, and whoever does not gather with me scatters.” (Matthew 12:30)
There is no neutrality, especially when it comes to education. All information is coming from someone with a particular world view.
3. “A student is not above his teacher, but everyone who is fully trained will be like his teacher.” (Luke 6:40)
Who will be my child’s teacher? Someone with Pharaoh’s stamp on them, who teaches in Pharaoh’s courts, approved by Pharaoh?
4. “These commandments that I give you today are to be upon your hearts. Impress them on your children. Talk about them when you sit at home and when you walk along the road, when you lie down and when you get up.” (Deut 6:6-7)
The Bible says I, the parent, am to disciple my children from the moment they wake up to the moment they go to bed.
5.”Train a child in the way he should go, and when he is old he will not turn from it.” (Prov 22:6)
Who is doing the training? The anti-Christ government?
6. “Do not be yoked together with unbelievers. For what do righteousness and wickedness have in common? Or what fellowship can light have with darkness?” (2 Cor 6:14)
My immature, sponge-brained children have no business being shaped and molded with heathen and pagan children.

My Birthday
Last Saturday I turned 31! Though I am a little perturbed about getting older I feel very blessed and fulfilled.
No, I don't have a college degree or a career. I don't have a big fancy house with a two car garage. I'm not loaded with money nor go on exotic vacations. I don't have expensive cars. I don't have a supermodel body and I'm more plain jane than beautiful(Chris may disagree). I don't have all the things that most of society would count as important. My motto is of course "The best things in life....are not things!"
What do I have you ask? I have God's saving grace which is by far the most important thing to have. I have a wonderful husband who makes it his business to take care of his family. I have two of the most wonderful children I could of ever asked for. I have a home, albeit it's a small home, but that is all I ask. I have this and sooooo much more. I can't really describe how blessed I feel right now!
Thank you Lord for everything you have given me!

And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire.(Revelation 21:8, Revelation 19:20, II Peter 2:4-6, II Thessalonians 1:8-9, Matthew 25:41, Matthew 13:40-42, Psalms 9:16-17, Psalms 11:6, II Peter 3:7, Mark 9:42-48)
