Kindergarten (The real reason)

"Overall, children who spend time in full-day kindergarten programs are more likely than children who spend time in half-day kindergarten programs to devote time every day to reading, mathematics, and social studies." - BULLSHIT!!

In our state, North Dakota (not the State Of Les), we recently passed a law making kindergarten a full day for the kids.

Now this has been passed along to the citizens that it's better for the kids, and that it gets them learning more at a younger age, and promotes good learning habits, and all kinds of stuff. And the parents just eat this shit up! "YEAH ... GREAT IDEA! I care so much about My child that I think full day kindergarten is wonderful!" What they're REALLY saying is "YIPPIE ... more free time for Me NOT to be a parent!!!" People are so good at bullshitting themselves!

You wanna know the REAL reason that kids are now in kindergarten full time? So parents don't have to take off work for 1/2 a day to raise their kids!!! Sorry .. but it's true! Kindergarten is full time because 'working parents' are behind the scenes making damn sure we don't go back to half days again. Kinda like the same reason the oil industry has made damn sure cars run on gas for the last 50 years even though better technology was always out there.

Need more proof? How about breakfast at school! Now it's not even the job of parents to feed their kids in the morning! Amazing. I hate to tell you a "When I was a kid" story but .... When I was a kid, we ate breakfast at home from a home cooked meal by this person called 'Mommy'. She would take us to kindergarten for a couple hours, then pick us up and we would go home where Mommy and I would spend the afternoon together.

TRY passing that story as truth today! HA!

Now I'm not stating that I have proof that 1/2 days are better, or that full days are more productive. I'm simply stating that the REASON for kids going all day is NOT because of the kids ... it's because of the worthless parents who make these decisions. It's all about the ADULTS ... not the kids.

Just another classic example of how in our generation, we will do anything possible to get rid of the kids that we are supposed to be raising. Weather it be putting them in school as much as possible and as early as possible, having them in daycare, or finding a sitter during the evening. It's amazing kids even know who their parents are anymore. I extend My middle finger to the typical parent out there today ... may you all become sterile. PRICKS!!
