Journal superyooser's Journal: The U.N.'s focus on the family 3
Home schooling may violate international law.
You may have to get government approval for the material that you want to teach your children, in accordance with international guidelines.
One of the most fundamental, timeless elements of civilization is that parents pass on their family's values and traditions to their children. Now, in the name of "children's rights"(???), this is under fire.
And strange as it is, the thing that just popped into my head is the recent laws concerning smoking. In some places in the US, it's now illegal to smoke IN YOUR OWN HOME if you have children. Yes, it's FOR THE CHILDREN. These liberal do-gooders have opened the door for the government to regulate anything that goes on in private citizens' homes. If you want to teach your child something that goes against the international consensus of Truth, do they plan to drag you away by blue-helmeted UN Domestic Education Police?
We know why the Left hates home schooling. Home schooling is an increasingly popular trend in America, and it is an insult to their authoritarian mentality. Communists hate it when people provide for their own needs instead of relying on the government. But even more, they know that home schoolers are mostly Christian. Christian parents are circumventing government indoctrination. How dare they! Big Brother knows best what children need to learn!
"We evolved from monkeys, and America is evil. Also, the sky is falling, and it's Bush's fault. Mmmkay? Class dismissed. Oppressed Muslims, Native Americans, and undocumented immigrants will be allowed to exit first. Be sure to pick up your free condoms and special sex toys for you gays and transgender-eds. And don't forget about our Bible-burning Earth Unity party on Friday if weather permits, Allah and Mother Earth willing."
That's the kind of degenerate classroom the Left wants, and they don't want you to have the freedom to escape it. What do you think the motivation is behind these Head Start programs? The liberal elites want to get to the "young skulls full of mush" (as Rush Limbaugh puts it) as soon as possible in order to subvert parents' values. Children already spend more waking hours in the presence of government employees (i.e., teachers) than with their own parents, thereby, absorbing more of the former's teaching. The Department of Indoc^WEducation, which is a left-wing bastion, wants to control as much daily mindshare of children as possible in order to mold them into perfect Democrat-voting Marxist humanists.
If the U.N. gets its way, even your home will not provide you and your family refuge from its grubby tentacles. Will there be UN Truth Squads (UNTruths) that go around rounding up suspected creationists and pro-lifers to be sent for long stays at The People's Education Centre for Peace and Equality? A place where Bob Jones alumni come out as Ward Churchill clones.
The UN may be the most evil institution in the world today. (It faces stiff competition from ANSWER, Peace Now, ACLU, Al-Qaida, Hamas, George Soros' organization, and numerous others.) I can only thank God that its own corruption and bureaucracy prevent it from being very effective at accomplishing anything.
However, in this case, that doesn't console me. Tyrannical leftist judges will not let the fact that the US hasn't ratified this UN Convention get in their way. They look for any law in any country to justify a ruling. These America-hating, humanist, judicial despots do whatever they want. The UN itself doesn't have the gumption to do anything bad to us, but some Democrat-controlled jackbooted Feds would be all too happy to carry out the Commie court ruling across the Bible Belt and middle America.

'Tis truly a sad state of affairs.
