Many people are still uninformed so it is so important to share Aug 3rd Event on StopCommonCore in Alabama on fb as children shouldn't fight alone.

Sample of the Bait and Switch tactic in one state.  Alabama Vote on Amendment March 2020 to replace elected Board with appointed who will remove Common Core--exposed!!  Read:
"Poole said it will be the commission's decision to determine those. He said they could choose to keep the state's current standards, which are derived from Common Core."

Please tune in between the hours of 9am to 10pm central time and glean knowledge to help your child.  To whom much is given, much is required and it would be soo wrong fro parents to work soo hard for their children to just let it all slip away.  So many things affecting the child and parents must learn.  Please be in prayer and share this event so that you will be watchful for your flock.  Prayer matters but it helps to know what to pray for.  Come join us and together we can make a difference.  Go to StopCommonCore in Alabama on fb to hear it live and the other links will be there too.

Sample of how bad they have routed US:
Arne Duncan in his speeches to usher in Common Core used a wonderful school, George Hall Elem (who was doing so well that they narrowed the "achievement gap" and won a Dispelling the Myth Award).  After his Common Core State Standards Initiative the school as well as the entire state plummeted to the bottom read more....

Finally parents have rung the phone lines in the State of Alabama Legislature in 2019 that the Senate Pro Tem Del Marsh introduces bill to get rid of Common Core passed almost unanimously except of course by the Dems!  Then comes the bait and switch because the House Speaker Terri Collins who has in previous sessions always opposed getting rid of it--again does the same thing.
This time with a switch and bait which supposedly gets rid of Common Core by getting rid of the elected state board of ed and put in appointed board that they will vet!  Listen in the ""on the audacity of corruption this Sat Aug 3rd, as it is happening across the country.

Be sure to tune in here Aug 3rd 9am-10pm.  Find time to join in even for a short time-very informative for Parents and Grands!

August 3rd 2019 is a day for parents to shout the truths from the rooftops.  If you are fed up with the way education is going then join the About The Child Summit.  Hear experts on different topics and their thoughts on solutions to the problems parents are facing, not just in our individual states but nationally. 

This will be a time to recognize that each parent from public schools, private schools and yes, even homeschooling parents are going to be forced under the government's reigns unless parents unite and stand up on their rights in the US Constitution.

Save the date, no matter how busy you are, there will be times for you to attend portions of this important parents meeting via the internet.  NO registration is required.  You will not want to miss this and your input is requested.  Chat room will be available for you to share your thoughts your experience or questions.

We will be announcing the list of great speakers that will be joining us and the time they will be on.  There is now so much information that most states are feeling the heat from parents anger and frustration.   Our numbers are great as each state has a movement to try to take back education but social media is now limiting our reach and diminishing our voices.  Before our voices are lost, please be sure to save the date Aug 3 and listen for your child's sake.  They want parents to be disconnected and helpless and hopeless.  But this is the land of the Free and home of the Brave.  We the families of these wonderful children can not let their dreams and their futures be destroyed.  The Founding Fathers fought for their children and we have benefited greatly.  Let's do our part and remember they never gave up no matter the size of their enemy.  United we will stand. 

God bless you and may God bless America.  Check back here under Call to Action and we will update  with more details and the list of speakers.   If you or someone you know from your state would like to be part of the group of speakers, please send us an email and we will contact you.  Thank you!  We specially want a Stop Common Core member from each state to join us.  All hands needed on deck!  Tune in Thursday night 7-18-19 at 7pm Central to hear it's introduction -see link on Stop Common Core in Alabama on fb.

After all these years under Common Core--here comes Common Core Part 2.  The House has just approved an investment in social-emotional learning, a spending bill last month that included $260 million in funding for what it calls “whole child” initiatives within the Department of Education.

Read this from the NEA (who funds Planned Parenthood) on their leader and this wonderful initiative.
http://neatoday.org/2019/05/28/bridging-the-gap-serving-the-whole-child-involves-every-educator/

They must have missed out on some little facts about it's developer--Linda Darling Hammond:
Read here:
"Today we see that Linda Darling-Hammond’s approach to education has failed.  The school she founded in California is to be closed because of low test scores and lack of significant improvement.

A similar charter school (Aspire) in the same district focused on academics; Darling-Hammond’s school focused on project-based learning, subjective assessments, portfolios, and  “students’ emotional and social lives.”
Aspire has succeeded; Linda Darling-Hammond’s school has failed.  An education expert at Stanford told me recently:  Let me repeat for everyone that the Charter School that Stanford runs and Linda Darling-Hammond heads up is one of the 188 schools on the California failing schools list.  It has been in existence for 6 years and has used all the most highly recommended Ed School teaching techniques like authentic assessments, group learning, and discovery."

By now, most of us are so tired of hearing the same people with supposedly new plans when sadly they are just a regurgitation of old failures.  Please call your Senators and let them know to not fund this Whole Child Initiative.  Do allow experts like Dr. Sandra Stotsky, Dr. James Milgram, Donna Garner, Dr. Karen Effrem,  Peg Luksik, and Linda Murphy to be in a panel that they can hear.  The harm that has been done in the name of Education Initiatives are unbearable.  It is time to listen to parent's experts above and have a real discussion on Education. 

These are worth reading as simply put there has been an agenda that is anti-American in our Ed System and it must go for it has destroyed many already.

In closing, please remember as big as the problems seems--God is bigger and He is able to help.  It starts with praying.  The Founding Fathers knew of these truths and that was why they started education but time has passed and it has been forgot.  They knew where their help came from and they knew their children needed it too as the tool of the enemy has not changed.  Their belief in God made them succeed and developed a great nation.  Learn and read it for yourself:

PS--Here's some words from Denis Ian a former teacher-who has now gone to heaven.  He wrote this when the call was put out for a Parents Turn with the POTUS...maybe someday someone will share this with President Trump:


Denis Ian
10/19/2018 04:59:56 am

Dear Mr. President

I don’t know how to speak with a president … but I can speak well enough with any father.

So, let us speak as fathers … and of the dreams we dream for our own children. And we should also speak of patience … and promises.

My own children are grown and flown … like most of yours. But new stars join the troupe … like your Barron … and my young Aidan. So, we are never very far from childhood.


I’ve seen you lose yourself in that boy’s face. I have. It’s the sort of thing I pay attention to because … because I do the same. All the time. That “circle of life” stuff gets extra-real in people our age. And finally … we learn to pay attention to what really matters. The sweet, small stuff … like a child’s face.

You are a busy man. I am not so busy at all.

You are the president of a great country … and I am the chief of a very small tribe. You were once a famous business man … and I was once a not-so-famous history teacher.

So … you can see … we have much in common.

My responsibilities are very simple. I am to be on time for baseball games … and uber folks from place to place. You? You are to worry about a country … and perhaps the rest of the world.

What busies you, hardly busies me.

You once spoke of pledges … and I spoke of the patience of parents. Do you remember?


Parents remember. It’s why you won their vote.

Schools have been nightmared. Children guinea-pigged. Poisoned by imposter-reformers and their educational idiocy. Schools are not as we remember.

So many seem intent on re-inventing childhood … swapping out sandboxes for hypnotizing iPads and abusive testing circumstances.

They’re calling out school leaders for odd-ball curriculum changes. Even demanding legislation for … are you ready, Mr. President? … for recess. For play time. For six year olds.








It’s that sick, sir.

They’re frustrated by politicians-turned-Socrates who dismiss their concerns … and permit creepy-freaky social engineers to bend the lives of their children.

Master-teachers … once the most trusted regents of our children … have been exiled to the edges of every reform discussion. Their common sense expertise suddenly dismissed as Dark Age know-how.


These hoaxers demand that hyper-dramatized assessments … tests …. be homaged as the new tools of educational excellence. Real-deal teachers are threatened into silent compliance. And so … hundreds of thousands of enraged parents are refusing abusive testing in state after state … Georgia … Texas … New York … Michigan … Florida.

The outrage is exploding. Haven’t you heard it, sir?

As you said in your rallies, this is what happens when schools are hijacked by interfering, disconnected theoreticians who pretend to understand children … and dare to claim parental regency over them.

It’s what happens when self-anointed wizards decide that only government can wrench us from fuzzy educational doom … and make us as advantaged as … as Sweden. And Singapore. Or Switzerland. Yeah. The Big Three of the world!

Do you remember the thunderous cheers when you promised to end Common Core? And to return our schools to local control?

Reassure us, Mr. President … our patience hangs on.

You have priorities … we understand. But we have been more than patient.

We wonder … when is it our turn? Our moment for your attention?

Too many are intent on canceling childhood … morphing classrooms into joyless spaces where youngsters seem more the experiment than the learner.

The anger is thicker than ever. It’s a miracle schools haven’t been pitchforked by parent-mobs.

But still they wait. For you. And your promises.

They’ve been frustrated by stonewalling politicians who dismiss their concerns … and permit creepy-freaky, social engineers to bend the lives of their children. So they looked to you.

Now fraud gurus insist that “grit and rigor” are the imperative antidotes to wasteful childhoods which used to grow in fantasy and imagination.

It’s all so out of whack …

And caught in this cyclone of nonsense are small people. Young children … like your Barron … and my Aidan. But not as well protected.


So … millions of innocents are anguished … and their parents agonized.

That’s what drove them to you … to place you in a position to help. They witnessed your oath to end Common Core … and they signed that contract in the ballot booth.

Never was the “Art of the Deal” so serious for so many.

They asked for their schools back … and for childhood to be restored.
And they’ve been waiting.

And waiting some more.

They asked

Evil has taken a hold of schools across the country and parents are wondering how to fight back.  It would do us well to remember what the founding fathers thought and how they prevailed against evil.  To them, it was right and good to acknowledge God as they realized in their journey to the New World, that it was God's help that would get them through.  After many sacrifices and hardships, we have seen the many fruits of their labor, sacrifices, perseverance and most of the help of the Almighty God.

Maybe that is what is wrong with America.  For too long, we have become so comfortable in this incredible nation and forgot that the price of freedom is vigilance.  Our enemies know full well how to destroy a nation.  God showed us in his Word the importance of remembering as in Deuteronomy 6, that it would go well for us.
The children being taught diligently the things he commanded was key.  It is time to read, remember, learn and share as the days upon us have become very dark.  Some would say that today parents are losing their children and their roles have been redefined almost like serfs where their families must again serve the state.

Even teachers roles have been re-defined.  Please encourage teachers to read this and get out of the evil association...https://www.foxnews.com/opinion/friedrichs-teachers-abortion?fbclid=IwAR2jb9jGelN0B54w7X3iKNpzkSXci86OUprniAlPygu3ITAf6ZHUmdk10Ig

Time to dust off what we know of the US Constitution.  It is a will to be passed down and not changed, but of course our enemies wish it so.  Hope you will continue to visit this website, Hopeink.tv, as we fight to share truths as we must, and now more than ever, as conservative voices are being diminished.  Here we will start working on posting on what is happening in all states specially in education--as a repository you can share with others.  Light will dispel the darkness and God is our help and he is able to deliver.  Send a message on this website if you would like to get a poster put your address --say what state you need it for and we will direct you to the right place. Please get informed--children need our help right now (see attacks).  Here's an article to help set the record straight! Above all don't forget to pray even for those that are lost and are promoting these dangerous lifestyles as they are too pawns useful to the great liar who has not changed.  Truth be known he has a place for them for eternity that no loving parent would want for their child.  May God bless you in the fight and may God's truths set the captives free--use it!
