An Absolute Must Read for anyone who has children in the Public School System!!
Revisado: 01-25-25
The author has been following this story for years. He is very thorough and right there where the action is taking place. Parents should be scared! Book Banning is just the beginning. Revealing the illegal way one Deputy went about searching and threatening was shocking. I'm in Texas, and it's BAD here! This book will help you realize that we are so close to a Dictatorship. If you want your kids properly educated and ready for college, it's time to get involved.

Historia
In August 2022, at a packed school board meeting in Grapevine, Texas, a mom approaches the microphone and describes the exact nightmare that Republican politicians have been warning about. She accuses a teacher of convincing her child to change genders. As a result, she says, “I lost my son.” But when NBC News reporters Mike Hixenbaugh and Antonia Hylton look into this mother’s allegations, they find a different story: of a transgender child desperately wanting to be heard, a mother determined to put God first — and an English teacher caught in the middle. And they discover this isn’...

This breaks my heart!!
Revisado: 10-11-23
This is truly scary just how organized and well funded these so-called "Christian" extremist groups are. They literally have a plan to go town by town, getting ultra right-wing conservatives elected to school boards so that they can change everything. The pronouns and going by a different name is an issue that teachers were divided on, but once they started removing books from the library, that's when the teachers united!! They removed To Kill A Mockingbird from my daughter's HIGH SCHOOL!! That's a classic piece of literature that most everyone had to read in school. When I called the school to ask why that one, amongst many others, I thought the answer would be because of the rape discussions and the constant use of the "N" word, but I was wrong. They removed it due to their CRT policy. in the book, a white man accuses a black man of raping his daughter. It was actually the father who was raping and beating his own daughter. So a black man was put on trial for something he did not do, because a while person said he did it. No other proof except for the white man's word. Evidently, that is considered CRT because it made a white man look bad, and it was a black man being persecuted by white people. We can't even tell the TRUE HISTORY of our county because it makes white people look bad! Well, they were! Plain and simple, we slaughtered Native Americans, enslaved many of them took their kids away from them, and then, of course, there's everything white people did to black people. Our kids aren't going to learn that stuff anymore because it could possibly make white kids feel ashamed to be white because of everything we as a race really did! THIS IS WHY THERE IS A TEACHER SHORTAGE AROUND HERE!!! THEY'VE HAD IT!!! This is a GREAT podcast that sadly is true at almost every school district in this area. I live about 45 minutes away from Grapevine, and with this organized plan, it will be heading here soon. Right now, teachers here are still free to use whatever pronoun our name the student wishes to go by. Trans kids are free to use the bathroom if their choice, but I'm not stupid, I'm sure they are headed here soon!! Mark my word, THERE WILL BE A RISE IN LGBTQ KIDS COMMITTING SUICIDE!! THEIR BLOOD WILL BE ON THIS GROUPS HANDS!!

A very important topic!!
Revisado: 08-10-23
I have loved every one of Kelly Rimmer's books that I have read. Forget all the other reviews that say it's an "advertisement for Planned Parenthood." Even if it were, would that be so bad. Only 3% of the money Planned Parenthood receives from Federal funding goes toward abortion. I went to Planned Parenthood as soon as I got to college. I had my first every gynecological exam there, and then I went on birth control. They told me so many things that my mother had not!! Back to the book, though, Postpartum Depression is very real and it can manifest in many different ways. The women in this book who had it clearly had very severe cases. It's still somewhat of a taboo subject, but we've come a long way. I thought of a few holes or unanswered questions after reading it. Kelly Rimmer has done it again, and you can tell she did her research. This story broke my heart in so many ways. The unexpected happy ending left me feeling UP after so many downer chapters. Read this! Every woman should.

Historia
It was one of the most searing images of the twentieth century: two young boys, two princes, walking behind their mother’s coffin as the world watched in sorrow—and horror. As Princess Diana was laid to rest, billions wondered what Prince William and Prince Harry must be thinking and feeling—and how their lives would play out from that point on.
