Regarding Obama’s speech to children, I am totally FOR it. I can remember the speech George Bush Sr. delivered when I was in elementary school in the 90s and the impact it had on me as a child. Now are we a country of free thinkers? I believe so. Are we a society that wants to promote free thinking in the next generation? I hope so. As a mother of 3 elementary students, I would never shield their eyes and close their ears from an opportunity to hear promotion of education from the most powerful man in our country. They hear it from me too much as it is. Maybe hearing it from a respectful man would have more of an impact. I don’t want to shield my children. So what if Obama starts to talk politics to my children. When they talk about their concerns and questions to me I will gladly give them my opinion. They can take with it what they will. Yes, Obama, you may be the king of this country. But in my house, I am the head rooster and none of your clucking is going to overpower my squawking, as far as my children are concerned.
