“Take Your Children Out Of School” | Psychiatrist Dr. Mark McDonald

This is a must-watch video. Although they start out discussing schools, it is about much more including the trauma being experienced by both boys and girls in our society.

Watch the video and then my comments follow.




“Take Your Children Out Of School” – Psychiatrist Dr. Mark McDonald

Regarding the education system, I have been saying exactly what he says for over twenty years. To hear a psychiatrist from Los Angeles recognize the truth of what must happen on a national scale is amazing.

He goes further than I’ve ever heard a professional like him go when discussing the state of schools, colleges, and universities.

The government school system is not only a failure, it is irredeemable.

What an answer to prayer that people’s eyes are finally being opened.

The Coming Collapse of the Education System

I truly believe we will see the collapse of the national educational system, the elimination of the Department of Education, and the return of all education decisions to the state and local level in the not very distant future.

The absolute insanity of the past few years has accelerated this in ways I don’t think the education establishment saw coming or can adapt to. A significant portion of the country absolutely despises what the educational system has become. There is no going back. It will never be the same again. It will only be something different.

The Fourth Turning is about the destruction of rotted institutions. The First Turning is about rebuilding and community.

We are getting there. Praise God.

Please. Take seriously what he is saying.

You have to place your children first.

Take your children out of school.

    This was interesting as I just listened to Allie Beth Stuckey on The Dark Side of Transgender Activism. It is dark and she definitely brought it to light in the interview she did. For mature audiences only. I did not understand the background of this and why this is so purposeful and the history goes back several decades. He is right, take your kids out of the schools entirely.

    Thanks for sharing this.
