This is a good video for understanding what is going on in the United States in concerns with the Common Core educational goals, standards, and assessments. This will affect ALL of us. Rich or poor, vocational or educational, young and old, public and private. These are our children, our legacies. This concerns the fate of our future. It’s heartbreaking what is happening to our children. They are being defeated and beaten down on a daily basis. Their self esteem and self image is being obliterated by this set of standards and it’s implementation. These common core methods are literally damaging our children’s brain pathways and will cause life long damage. They don’t have a voice except for us- their guardians. Will you be silent while you watch them suffer at the hands of dysfunctional education system and a controlling federal government? Free our children, free our teachers, FREE EDUCATION! If we are an uneducated nation we will be easy to conquer and control. The United States of America as setup by our forefathers will cease to exist.
