Dear Friend,

Earlier this week, we shared an article online about an 11-year-old in Maine who spoke out against 'pornographic' content in his school.

In the article, "Knox Zajac, an 11–year-old sixth grader, spoke up at a school board meeting last week to read aloud from the book 'Nick and Charlie' that he had checked out of his school’s library. The age advisory in this book is 14 years of age and older. 'Nick and Charlie,' written by Alice Oseman, begins with two early teen boys stealing wine from their parents and proceeding to experiment sexually with one another. . . . 'This book was on the stand. . . . When I rented it out and showed my dad it, the librarian asked if I wanted more and if I wanted a graphic novel version,' Zajac said."

Cases like this are occurring all over our country.

It comes in the form of gender unicorns, pornographic books, inappropriate curriculums, privacy-invading surveys, parent-evading counseling, and more. We have even seen some of it with our own eyes, and it's almost unbelievable that it could be happening in North Carolina's schools.

We believe parents are the primary educators of their children and should know what their children are learning. Since our country’s founding, our laws and courts have upheld the fundamental right of parents to educate and to raise their children as they see fit. In recent years, government bureaucrats and teachers’ unions have pushed to exclude parents from the educational process. These are some of the many reasons we are pursuing the passage of a Parents Bill of Rights that protects parents and their children against indoctrination and interference in the parent/child relationship. The bill has already passed the NC Senate, and we are hoping the House takes it up soon!

We are looking for parents with first-hand experience with issues in NC schools related to transparency, indoctrination, or inappropriate materials. We are also looking for parents who have been denied access to their child's medical information. If you are any of those, we would be grateful if you would share your story with us. We need your stories to help get the Parents Bill of Rights passed in the House.

If you share our values and have had an experience where you believe your parental rights were violated, would you contact [email protected].

Sincerely, 

Tami & Team,
NC Values
