Murphy Caves to Mounting Pressure on “Child grooming” School Curriculum
the staff of the Ridgewood blog
Trenton NJ, asย pressure builds on the Murphy Administration over what critics are callingย “Child grooming ” that is going to start in September under the Murphy Administrations “Comprehensive Health and Physical Student Learning Standards”ย
Child grooming is befriending and establishing an emotional connection with a child, and sometimes the family, to lower the child’s inhibitions with the objective of sexual abuse. Child grooming is also regularly used to lure minors into various illicit businesses such as child trafficking, child prostitution, cybersex trafficking, or the production of child pornography.ย
The Governor and the NJEA have already labeled criticism of the curriculum “disinformation ” .
Governor Murphy in his latest statement continues to blow off claims , โUnfortunately, our learning standards have been intentionally misrepresented by some politicians seeking to divide and score political points. ”ย Critics counter that sexualizing children has no place in public education for any reason .
Parents have good reason to be fearful . The most comprehensiveย reportย about sexual abuse in public schools, published by the Department of Education in 2004, estimates โ on the basis of a 2000 survey, conducted by the American Association of University Women, of 2,065 students in grades eight through 11 โ that nearly 10 percent of K-12 students have been victims of sexual misconduct by a public school employee. Assuming that figure is accurate, this would translate into an approximately 4.5 million children nationwide suffering sexual misconduct by public school employees, with an estimated 3 million suffering physical sexual abuse โ aย number, according to the author of the study, Hofstra University professor Charol Shakeshaft, more than 100 times greater than the physical abuse committed by Catholic priests, who, at the time the report was published, were undergoing a reckoning for the crimes within their ranks.
Some parents have suggested filing sexual assault chargers against teachers and school districts . Critics say if a perfect stranger spoke to you child about sexuality in this manner you would call the police and they would be arrested .
Under parental pressure and the specter of a Democrat wipe out in the Mid-term election Murphy caved:
โTo this end, I have directed my Department of Education to review the standards and provideย further clarification on what age-appropriate guidelines look like for our students. My Administration is committed to ensuring that all of our students are equipped to lead healthy, productive lives now and in the future.โ

Let children be children, they are only small for a little while and donโt need to be taught things they donโt understand. There is absolutely no need to strip away their innocence at such an early age. They will grow up soon enough and when WE AS PARENTS feel the time is right for this discussion, WE THE PARENTS will have it with OUR CHILDREN. It is not the place of schools to do so.
The audacity for them (Educational system/ Government ) to think they have the โbest interest of our children โ in this matter ! US parents will educate and teach them in the privacy of their own homes period. We will fight this , defend our rights as parents and always protect our young. Such innocent souls. Let them be kids for crying out loud. Specially, following this Covid crap that set many kids back in speech, reading and, simply being able to be a โkidโ!
Otherwise, just watch how many kids WILL be pulled out of the public school system to be taught at home in groups. Already preparing ๐คทโโ๏ธ๐๐ป

Letโs see exactly what this means. I doubt they will get rid of these programs, or even revise them very much. We need to keep an eye on this.
Just another example of government control & manipulation by it’s agencies! Parents & those who love & care about our children must stand up and put an end to this abusive insanity!
It’s indoctrination call it what it is.
They should all be arrested for child abuse. This is disgusting so glad to be in Florida
It certainly I!

Why is it “disinformation” Governor? Because we don’t want our children subjected to this? No, it’s not disinformation; it’s just plain vulgar!
I would love to know if his wife and children agree with himโฆ
Who cares what his wife and kids think. They’re probably just as perverted as he is.
