Imagine this. Your kid stays out too late or hangs out with the wrong crowd. As a parent it would be your responsibility and duty to punish your child in some way, perhaps grounding them from their cell phone for a week. Right? Well, what if your decision to ground your child could be appealed? Obama is pushing for approving a U.N. treaty that would allow your child to appeal all of your parental decisions to the government. The government could literally reverse your decision to ground your child. Sounds “too bad to be true”, right? Not only is it true, but Obama has described our failure to ratify this legislature by now as “embarrassing”.
This is something that every parent in the U.S. needs to see. If you feel that the government should tell you how you have to raise your kids then you might be ok with this. However, if you are one of the millions of parents out there who do not want the government to tell you how to raise your kids, then you need to see this. Call your representatives today and tell them that you will not be told how you can and can’t raise your own kids.
If your kid tells you they want to join a cult do you want the government telling you that you have to stand by and allow it?
This piece of legislation has been around since the 90’s but thankfully the US has stayed away from it until now… Here’s the full text of the U.N. Council on the Rights of the Child.
The text of the bill is littered with good things such as feeding children properly, giving them proper care, etc. This all seems good and well but it is all an attempt to mask its bigger goal, letting the government tell us how to raise our kids. Some parts that I feel are important to point out. I’ll bold the key parts. (more…)
