Your Teacher Said What?!: Defending Our Kids from the Liberal Assault on Capitalism — Book Review
Your Teacher Said What?!: Defending Our Kids from the Liberal Assault on Capitalism by Joe Kernen
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
As a parent with a child in the public school system, I found this a book a wonderful read. I’ve pretty much got a handle on the topics here but Joe Kernen breaks it down in a very easy to understand manner for any level. Blake’s questions and ideas are very thought-provoking and it really does show you just how a child’s brain works. As adults, we are trapped within our own mind and seldom think on a lower level. We take for granted our knowledge and sometimes expect our children to understand without question. This book really does open your eyes as to how the school system is teaching our children.
If you are unfamiliar with the topics, this book explains it on a level anyone can understand. If you are familiar with the topics, it is a great recap of them. The book is not condescending, nor is it “just another textbook”. Joe makes it real by throwing in his own conversations with his daughter. Parents can certainly empathize when reading.
I highly recommend this read to anyone who is sending their children to school–pre-k to college, it matters not. These questions will eventually come up sometime in your conversations with your children. It’s better to be prepared with the proper answers, not something you just guess at. Education is the key to success. It’s never too late to learn. Arm yourself with knowledge and make the world a better place.

I'd have to give this book a check just to see what kind of things this author's daughter's teacher or instructor(s) said.
