When I was in high school we had Home Ec and Shop to teach us those daily things. Home Ec also taught us how to care for an ill family member – how to change sheets and make a bed; how to sew things as well as how to keep a house clean and orderly. The shop classes taught woodworking, auto mechanics, etc.
The ADULTING DAY idea is great but it needs to be more of an ADULTING MONTH – including how to change a light bulb, how to fix a leaky faucet, how to clean a plugged drain, etc. All those things that are part of every day life. But then, nowadays, the schools would have to bring in professionals to show them how to do it as most teachers wouldn’t have a clue. I can just see todays youngsters (and adults) asking Google, Alexis, or those other talking tech things to tell them how to do something —other than to spy on all that goes on in your house.

There have been numerous reports about the FLAG these *caravaners* are flying. Invading troops always carry the flag of their HOMELAND – not the flag of the country they are intending to invade and destroy. That in itself should tell all what this bunch intends. It is far more than just getting all Americans have and worked for – it is to take over America and take all that they can take – without firing a shot. If we sit in SILENCE then they will succeed.

I had a very restless night of sleep last night due to finding out that one of my great grand kids can’t read cursive. He will be 13 in October!!! How did I learn this bit of information?
No Reading, Writing and Arithmetic for today’s Teachers or students… instead of the Three ‘R’s it is now the S – E – X. No written report cards either, it is mostly ORAL.
