(cwfa.org) American Girl dolls have been the love of young girls for a couple of decades thanks to their focus on character, reading and American history. This August, the American Girl doll company, owned by Mattel, broke faith with those girls and their families by partnering with Girls Inc. in their “I Can” campaign. Anne Scheidler, Executive Director of the Pro-Life Action League based in Chicago, Illinois, tells us that Girls Inc. unapologetically promotes abortion and lesbianism. The shocking news is that American Girl executives are aware of that fact!

Homeschooling Family Find Ways to Adapt to a PS
Posted Wednesday, October 5th, 2005 by JustinA friend of ours sent me this:
“Socialization” Program:
When my wife and I mention we are strongly considering homeschooling our children, we are without fail asked, “But what about socialization?”
Fortunately, we found a way our kids can receive the same socialization that government schools provide.
On Mondays and Wednesdays, I will personally corner my son in the bathroom, give him a wedgie and take his lunch money.
On Tuesdays and Thursdays, my wife will make sure to tease our children for not being in the “in” crowd, taking special care to poke fun of any physical abnormalities.
Fridays will be “Fad and Peer Pressure Day.” We will all compete to see who has the coolest toys, most expensive clothes and the loudest, fastest and most dangerous car.
Every day, my wife and I will adhere to a routine of cursing and swearing in the hall and mentioning our weekend exploits with alcohol and immorality. If our kids attempt to use the bathroom without permission, we will punish them immediately.
And we have asked them to report us to the authorities in the event we mention faith, religion or try to bring up morals and values.
