The issue is not even child abuse, which this undoubtedly is.
It is that they have created systems where they pay no price for being wrong, and other people do. If they do scummy things like this, it is not their own gene pool that suffers, but yours. You can spend 9 months giving birth, then 11 years of time, money and effort in raising a kid, only for that kid to be destroyed.
Just like when teachers decided that children needed 'death education', and this led to suicides among other people's kids. Remember that? I'd never heard of it and only learned about it in an old Sowell book.
Unfortunately, this is why money is the only real solution to this kind of institutionalization. You gotta take these kids out of public schools and demand constant, and permanent, cuts to education funding and taxes that fund education.
Private schools aren't safe from this. The "pediatric gender clinics" also have been setup with private funding. This stuff will continue until a lot of our crop of rich people are made no longer rich.
I accept this, but these are also the same problem. The elites are the elites because of the monopolization of school by the state.
Breaking that is the first step. Then, yes, just like Notre Dame University or even most of the private religious colleges, the next step is to make them accountable to the consumers who are saying "we didn't pay for this shit". Then building a parallel system within that which defunds private woke schools. Then, paralleling the entire field of education so that teachers who teach can go to private schools and teachers who groom continue to flood public schools, pushing the division further. Those pupils from genuine private, non-woke, schools can then be educated against Leftist radicalization and lead further resistance.
Fixing education isn't something to be done in one lifetime. It's a god damned nightmare, so there's gonna be a lot of time for these changes to take effect. Even getting a few "experiments" in can work wonders for comparison. Someone just stops funding public schools in a township or a county and takes tax money to create a private school stipend. Little shit like that can create success stories that can serve as a base for further actions.
Private schooling isn't a solution, it's just that defunding public schooling is the equivalent of putting a chest-seal on a sucking chest wound... that wants to rape your kids.
The state is the state because the elites shaped the state to their interests. The issue with privatization is that you are going to eventually have "woke" mega-corporations buy up the private schools, and they will become even more difficult to manage than public schools in many cases, once they reach near monopolization. Finding a non-pozzed schools will then become as difficult as finding non-pozzed movies, TV, shows, etc.
We need to somehow convince enough people that this is a problem so that we get enough political and legal power to eliminate public school funding. If these constant stories don't do it I don't know what will. Ideally you need one party putting "eliminate the Department of Education" on its platform and actually carrying through.
To be honest, just getting these fights onto the schoolboard is an accomplishment. Then we've got to actually make progress in building a parallel school economy whether through private schooling or home-schooling coalitions.
If you can put a home-schooling organizer on a public school board?

I've never heard of this. Could you explain it briefly?
This is from one of the few Sowell books that I have read only once (Inside American Education), so my recollection may not be great, and take the following with a grain of salt.
Basically, in the early 1990s, due to the great success of sex education in raising the teenage pregnancy and STD rate, teachers decided that children had to get 'death education', because how could they deal with death without the aid of teachers 'educating' them about it.
So they unleashed 'death education' on children. They showed them with videos that were supposed to teach them how to deal with death, and had visits to graveyards and basically weird stuff. Despite evidence that this was greatly disturbing to the children, and despite suicides from children who could ironically could not deal with this 'death education'.
Afterwards, it was never heard of again. The fad passed just as quickly as it had arrived, with families of dead children left to pick up the pieces. As usual, they paid no price for being wrong, other people suffered for their mistakes. And it's wiped from the historical record, so they don't even have to pay the reputational price for it.
Interesting. I actually took a class called Death and Dying in my senior year of high school. I took it because at the time I wanted to go into forensic psychology, and it seemed like a decent elective to fill my schedule with, along with my forensics, and medical lab classes.
I don't remember a ton about that class. I remember that we watched a lot of movies that dealt with death, like My Girl,A Walk to Remember,Tuesdays With Morrie, etc. We also went on a field trip to a historic cemetery in my home city. There was also a research project where we each had to do a presentation on a past or present culture's funeral rites.
It was a mildly interesting class, but I was a high school student. I get the feeling that the children that Thomas Sowell was talking about were much younger.

Chef's Kiss
the only real solution is the fear of god.
Meh. God is another form of instituitonalization. I'd rather them be un-institutionalizable. I'd rather keep their individuation.

It showed up in some of my highschool textbooks. My favorite was a questions, "how can a suicide hotline help you with suicide?"
I made an entire sketch about it.

The cause is societal degeneration. And the solution to sexual violence against your family is equal and opposite force.
