Another well written statement. Don’t forget Tremains cartoons are drawn to encourage thoughts and comments This one has raised so many home truths. Glossed over by Cindy and her mob of Morons The vast majority of the children involved are of Māori and Pacifica race but No One mentions that because it’s called racism Since when has speaking and writing the truth been racist !

In terms of bringing up kids, we seem to have lost the ability to observe and learn from the natural world around us and the way the young are brought up - many of us could learn a lot from sparrows.
Very true. When education doesn't fit society, society finds its own. The dumbing down of schooling so the lesser IQ'd society didn't offend their activist tier by lower grades has dumbed all down. Suitable schools with appropriate teaching by able teachers showed that most could be prepared for useful citizenship. Lesser abled women didn't have to have kids because they couldn't basic work.

Thanks to this loony so called current government the education system is a bloody shambles. And they think that the compulsory learning of te reo is going to make this a better country. It's great for those who wish to learn it, but apart from that it's as useful as tits on a bull.
The main priorities should be teaching English, mathematics, geography, history (Not the anti European NZ version that is currently being thrust down our students throats), and another useful language of your choice.
Also the welfare system needs a major overhaul. Too many layabouts and DPB recipients are bludging off the system and have made it a career at our expense.

Kindness is not a method of running a nation.
