Parent power!
The past few weeks have vividly illustrated that parents can be more influential than they might have ever imagined when they join together to resist negative influences on their children1. Almost every day before the elections on November 2, stories about concerned parents at school board meetings led the news, especially in Loudoun County, Virginia. Moms and dads challenged school leaders’ support of extremist ideologies such as Critical Race Theory’s “oppressed vs. oppressor” dynamics in the classroom. They also demanded the end of increasingly overt efforts to indoctrinate their children with transgender ideologies and Social-Emotional Learning, all of which crowd out academic instruction in favor of radical social justice propaganda.2 As statewide elections demonstrated, especially in Virginia, these parents made their points3 by defeating candidates who supported the politicization of their children’s education.
