Due process should never be denied when justice is to be ......

Any employee of the State of Texas that lies to a parent regarding their child should remember....ab abusu ad usum non valet consequentia ~"a consequence from an abuse to a use is not valid"

or read Ezekiel 25:17

I agree that the government wants to indoctrinate our children as early as possible. And yes, when they walk in the school, you give up your parental authority while they are there. Whatever books they want them to read or films they want them to watch, your protests are unfounded. Separation of church and state. So, if the Bible says one thing, that has no bearing on the school’s right to educate as they see fit.

The teachers are in loco parentis. This is so serious. And, be careful of government programs. They have more access to records than you think. Once I allowed my children to participate in an after school program dental screening (it was free). Within two weeks a woman called going over the children’s history and asking numerous questions of things in their medical records in the doctor’s office but not on the free screening forms. For example, there was a check up on the vision screening. Also, there was information on a leg problem. I kept asking her who she was and why she was calling me to ask about tings that had nothing to do with the free dental screening. I was aware of the medical bureau (like a medical bureau).

I got the impression that they would have taken the children. But, I informed the woman that my children have a private physician, which apparently she was able to pull those records from, and that all of their care is taken care of by the physician. No further problems occurred. But, I think it was another way that others without private physicians are sought out for case workers. Being an active officer at the time, I was able to terminate her “questioning.”

Government has no place in our children’s lives. If we break the law, then there should be an investigation. I no longer allow my children to participate in any free programs after that experience. I thought it was saving me a trip but it quickly was turned to a nightmare.

Our nation has become too dependent on our government to do things for us. Even in my case, I was allowing a government initated program to do something I normally do - take my kids in for checkups. And, as soon as the door was opened, things were turning ugly.

We cannot give our children over to government to raise. The statistics are dismal for children raised by the system. We just have to address abuse as it is reported and continue to ensure parents receive support so that they can be the best parents. There’s no reason to relinquish parental authority because of a few bad apples.

Parents have been doing a fantastic job raising their children. Yes, other countries may have problems but that’s no reason to undermine our Constitutional Rights.

Sounds like peer pressure in its worse form. Some are giving in and believing that the government should take over.
