Young minds being protected, poisoned

The actions of the Highland Park school board point out a serious trend in our educational system. I have heard and read opinions by teachers which have indicated a prevalent left-wing position. This is quite scary to me, since the existing administrating continues to campaign for this position and continues to reference the children, and no doubt teachers along the way. Being a father and grandfather I am concerned that their little minds are getting information contrary to my core beliefs. Confronting them with this is tough. It is difficult because I detect that upon my departure, the child will go to mom and ask, "Hey, Mom, what's with Grampy?" Depending upon what Mom says, your efforts are probably counterproductive. I hope and pray that when they reach the age in order to make important decisions, we will have purged the socialist activities prevalent today.
