Warning to Moms – Part 2

Mon, 2024-03-11 22:00 +0000

Erin Friday lives in California and has written checks to the ACLU and Planned Parenthood in accordance with her dutiful liberal worldview.  She is also the mother of a seven-year-old daughter who she witnessed get sucked into the orbit of the new gender ideology movement.

It began with her daughter sitting through five hours of sex education at her public school.  One entire hour was dedicated to gender selection, where she learned she could be any of a number of identities.  How Erin found this out was when her daughter had friends over, she listened to them choosing identities, including pansexual, lesbian, polyamorous, and non-binary.  At this time, her daughter was eleven.

Similar to January Littlejohn’s daughter she would be heavily influenced online during the COVID lockdowns.  Her natural discomfort with her growing body, instead of normal, was evidence she was trans per her online grooming community.  Reiterating her sexual education, she was mis-assigned at birth and needed to be proactive about embracing her true identity.  Erin discovered this by overhearing teachers referring to her daughter with a male name and male pronouns as she schooled from home on her iPad.  Thus began the nightmarish journey for her and her family.

Despite subtle clues, such as cutting her hair, wearing oversized and boyish clothes to cover up her body, and general despondency, Mrs. Friday took it as normal adolescent development. It wasn’t until she heard her child’s assumed name and pronouns that she realized something seriously wrong was going on.

How wrong?  Her school knew about it for quite some time before she did and never bothered to contact her.  Angry, she contacted the school only to have them define themselves as “the safe space” for her daughter, who was also not able to define safe space when she asked them what that meant.

She found her child’s online homework had been given with her new name and pronouns for some time before Mrs. Friday found out.  Yet another subtle but effective way these groups use apparent authority channels to deceive children into believing their identity crises is being handled by professionals.  Since this was during COVID, it all happened online and by teachers who had never met the daughter in person since she was new to the school.

After another phone call where they parroted their “safe space” status and again couldn’t define what they meant, Erin stated, “Well then, I must be unsafe?” Rather than engage her, she was visited by Child Protective Services and the police days later at the urging of the school.  They claimed to have seen her daughter looking up “how many Monster drinks to kill a girl,” though they couldn’t produce proof of this claim.  Positioning themselves as saviors, in reality, they were spying on her child through publicly funded devices using public safety to intimidate a tax-paying parent.  Rather than schools, these parents are financing the cult-rape of their families.

“It happens all the time in our state” she warns the interviewer.  Children are being pulled out of class by administrators and counselors who then march them down the path of gender-identity struggle, building a crisis in the child’s life without the parent’s knowledge.

Knowing the public school was the problem, Mrs. Friday immediately removed her and opted to try a Catholic school instead. Despite the better environment, she soon found out that even the Catholic school had been infiltrated with the new ideology.

Believing she’d been born in the wrong body, her daughter sunk into a deep depression convinced her only recourse was to take hormones and remove body parts.  As the writer of this article and father to five, I can hardly believe I just typed that, so one can only imagine the rage the Fridays were dealing with while trying to counsel their school-aged daughter, who was now getting an education under-duress.  Duress caused by the educators and during incredibly vulnerable years.

Similar to the Littlejohn’s, her daughter was being coached online that her parents didn’t love her and to reject them as parents.  She began to call her mom Erin instead of “mom.”  This is an essential step in cult psychology formation designed to give greater control to the indoctrinators by alienating essential family bonds.  This is not science or sociology; this is cult grooming.

Of course, no grooming is complete without actual separation, which her online handlers were urging her to do – leave her family.

Similar to January Littlejohn, Erin Friday was awarded volunteer of the year and drove children on field trips. She ran the walk or jog event and was essentially as involved as any parent could be in their child’s scholastic life. She also checked her child’s phone, only to find out her child had fake accounts where she could communicate in secret. She warns parents, including those highly involved, that it can happen to any of you.

Friday also notes she has a son two years younger and they would do life as a family.  He was never drawn into this web.  Yet despite her apparently stellar parenting efforts these manipulators have developed strategies incorporating the ease of social media communication to subvert even the most astute parent.

“Had I known what I know now, I never would have given her an iPhone.  I would not have put her in public school.  I never would have let her go through sex ed. Those are things I should have done – in hindsight, I would have.”

Echoing Littlejohn, she warns parents the clock is ticking if they suspect their child is susceptible to trans grooming.  By the time they turn eighteen your opportunities to protect them reduce dramatically.

The combination of compassion, love, and asserting one’s parental power to guide your child along a path of health and well-being is available, but it takes the courage to reject the new cultural zeitgeist and not be swayed by the pressures of political correctness.  Both fear of cultural pushback and that of one’s child not liking you is no reason to keep from setting healthy boundaries and relying on the love lying deep within your child for their parents to overcome these dogmatic activists who live to add to their numbers.

However, the cult is not the only perpetrator of this predation.  When considering the “why” of her daughter’s gender malaise, she recalls finding violent pornography on her phone.  Among her discoveries were images and videos depicting women being physically abused and subjected to degrading sexual treatment.  She believes it caused her daughter to want to shun womanhood, believing this was part of her future.  Again, access to this is the click of a button away from today’s children.

School Board Discusses Warrantless Searches on Homeschool Families

Mon, 2024-03-11 20:00 +0000

Homeschooling is this awful, terrible thing where parents and guardians remove children from the failed public school experiment and (drumroll) teach them how to read and do math. A State’s AG has suggested allowing unannounced warrantless searches of homeschoolers… in the name of public safety.

We don’t have the entire conversation (below), but this clip of the Michigan State Board of Education discussing the question is enlightening. The matter at hand appears to be an issue with kids in foster care who are not in public schools, presumably homeschooled, and potentially subject to …safety issues or abuse. The idea is that either the kids or the homeschools need to register so they can be randomly audited or (my words) swatted if the state receives a complaint that there may be abuse occuring.

In other words, the State Justice Department wants to run random warrantless raids against anyone with kids at home who are not attending public schools, probably at the behest of teachers’ unions and the Democrat politicians they bought.

The board members who speak are not only clearly against this idea but for all the right reasons.

The first speaker sets up the discussion and enumerates several problems with the idea. The last (the clip is just under 8 minutes) knocks that pitch out of the park, which is not what I expected when the clip landed in my digital lap.

A few teasers.

  • ‘Public Education is not safer than homeschooling.
  • Public education safety needs a complete overhaul before we can claim that homeschooling leaves students more vulnerable.
  • They are making specific choices to not be in public education so that they can access a curriculum we are not choosing to administer to them…and there’s nothing wrong with that.

As you watch it, ask yourself if the idea of warrantless searches of homeschools is something that could or does happen in your state and whether your school board(s) would condone it. And if it did, what would you be prepared to do about that?

Note: There is a meme circulating that has the warning (warrantless searches) without any of the good stuff from the actual video circulating the internet).

Note 2: I wrote this long before I saw the meme.

Here’s the clip.

Two Dubious “Extremely Rare Occurrences” in Windham’s Elections

Mon, 2024-03-11 18:00 +0000

The Windham Incident on November 3, 2020 that produced the largest numerical discrepancy in the history of NH between an election day result and a subsequent recount exposed over a hundred violations of election laws and procedures by Windham’s election officials.

Since then, Windham’s election officials have continued to violate election laws and procedures in the subsequent federal election cycles. Those violations are identified in multiple reports that were written by the NH AG, NH SOS, the NH Deputy SOS and NH Assistant SOS.

But instead of taking responsibility, Windham’s election officials and their friends falsely claim they are the victims of baseless attacks, and counter with nasty character assassination attacks against those who simply want accurate elections that follow the laws.

The inability of Windham’s election officials to follow election laws during the November 3, 2020 election led to the dubious distinction of having an election monitor appointed for the September 13, 2022 primary. According to Secretary of State William Gardner, “the appointment of an election monitor to oversee an election in this state is an extremely rare occurrence.”

The violations of election laws in that election led to yet another election monitor appointed for the January 23, 2024 presidential primary election.

With the continued inability of Windham’s election officials to follow election laws in subsequent elections, Windham has now had an unprecedented two “extremely rare occurrences” by having election monitors appointed in two consecutive federal election cycles – and Windham’s election officials still failed to follow election laws and procedures in both of those elections.

The Government Integrity Project (www.gipamerica.org) put together three full page ads (here, here and here) and a direct mailer to inform Windham voters of the recurring failures of Windham’s election officials as identified in the multiple reports mentioned above. Election officials and their friends falsely call them lies and a smear campaign. Honest people know it’s the truth.

Every Windham voter should download and read the reports written by NH’s highest ranking law and election officials regarding Windham’s elections in 2020, 2022 and 2024 from the NH AG’s and SOS’s offices and decide for themselves who is telling the truth… and then cast an informed vote.
