State Indoctrination programs

NZ:  ‘Children are being moulded into desired citizens at preschool through government-funded literature focusing on emotions, says an award-winning thesis.
Researched over three years by University of Auckland childhood studies lecturer Dr Marek Tesar, the thesis delved into the effects of the former Department of Education-commissioned stories aimed at helping young children understand and express their emotions.
Dr Tesar, originally from Czechoslovakia, compared the books written before 1989 to those read to him at preschool in 1970s and 80s communist Eastern Europe and found the only difference was the messages….’
The messages may be less overtly political, but there’s little doubt the objectives are the same.

    There was a hard rule that school teachers should never, ever attempt to force, or encourage a way of thinking on their charges. I recall, at age about 14, a teacher what he thought about something current and political. His reply was that he would lose his job if he answered. This was a CofE school.

    Feelings, i know we can’t escape them, but must we wallow and slither around in them all day and night.
