You’ve most likely read the story about a German homeschooling family that was accosted by armed German policemen. Their children were taken from them for the crime of teaching their own children in their own home. Most certainly the crime of the century.

You can kill your children before their born because of “freedom of choice,” but don’t you dare think you can educate them once they’re born. Children are property of the State.

Like so many distant events, we think that we are immune in America. We say that it can’t ever happen here. Who would have thought that photographers would be told by a court that they would have to put their religious beliefs aside and be forced to photograph a lesbian wedding or a bakery supply a cake for a homosexual couple? It’s happening in America.

What was thought to be impossible 20 years ago is happening at a rapid pace right before our eyes. The day may come when politicians decide that America needs a homogenized educational curriculum (No Child Left Behind, Common Core, etc.) in order to bring solidarity to the nation. “Everything in the state, nothing against the state, nothing outside the state.”

If judges can force business owners to comply with the new thinking on homosexual marriage, what makes us think that “progressives” won’t try to use their authority to indoctrinate children on any number of supposed social ideals?

Liberals hate what they don’t control. Homeschooling is something that they don’t control.

The way to change the future is to control the present. Liberals are patient. They have time on their side. It was in 1937 that Adolf Hitler said the following:

“The youth of today is ever the people of tomorrow. For this reason we have set before ourselves the task of inoculating our youth with the spirit of this community of the people at a very early age, at an age when human beings are still unperverted and therefore unspoiled. This Reich stands, and it is building itself up for the future, upon its youth. And this new Reich will give its youth to no one, but will itself take youth and give to youth its own education and its own upbringing.”

Here are some additional choice Hitler quotations:

• “When an opponent declares, ‘I will not come over to your side, and you will not get me on your side,’ I calmly say, ‘Your child belongs to me already. A people lives forever. What are you? You will pass on. Your descendants however now stand in the new camp. In a short time they will know nothing else but this new community.’”
• “The German school is a part of the National Socialist Educational order. It is its obligation to form the national socialistic personality in cooperation with the other educational powers of the nation, but by its distinctive educational means.”

I know, your school is different. Maybe in degree, but not in terms of the overall long-term goal of today’s liberal educators who have designs on your children who will one day serve the State.

Millions of parents gleefully pack their children in the big yellow buses and wonder why they end up loving Big Brother. From K-12 and beyond, the State has been their surrogate parent.

The State hates competition. It may be just one homeschooling family in Germany today, but don’t be surprised if in 10 or 15 years all children will become the educational wards of the State.
