Finally, my nephew with speech issues gets to attend speech therapy without a mask. I cannot believe they were forcing these kids to LEARN SPEECH with masks on teachers and students.
People keep telling me, “kids don’t care about the masks!” That’s not the point. If the data shows they are not effective for young children, then it is not okay to force them to wear them. Facial expression, emotion, education and actual air matter to their brains and bodies.
I’m against both but still find it hard to comprehend how someone could value the humanity of a serial killer over the most innocent of all human life.
Your administration just reinstated the death penalty and scheduled 5 executions of *actual* people. You’ve lost the right to pull your, “pro-life” narrative-talking-point- bullshit with me.
Friend just invited to a house warming party with required COVID testing (they are providing rapid tests at the door I guess) or vaccine proof.
I just can’t, y’all.
The end where the writer mentions the anorexia epidemic of the 90s is a really interesting comparison. One I was a part of…
As noted, doctors didn’t encourage girls to embrace their anorexia as many do in this case of transgenderism.
This piece is terrifying, and the parent who wrote it should be commended for doing so. But it fails to include the only thing that matters: a commitment to remove her kid from this disgusting school and put her kid in a school with actual values.
I am praying so deeply for the parents experiencing the worst day of their lives. God be near them so that even the smallest way they sense your presence. My heart breaks and breaks.

Prager U is actually dangerous. They’re reaching a new, younger audience with bullshit conservative propaganda. They trick kids into thinking their videos are educational even though Prager U is as much of a real college as Monsters University.

Everyone of those groups has many testimonies of women grateful for their services. Why anyone would try to minimize their value as orgs is beyond me. We should ALL be supporting more of them.

My Grandma died a few hours ago. She was the coolest. She owned a costume shop on a college campus most of my life. It was crazy. She was a savvy entrepreneur & wrote me letters everyday when I went overseas. I’ve been asked to write her obituary. I love her & miss her already.

If a heartbeat doesn't signify life, I'm not sure what does.
What do we check when we fear someone has lost their life? Their heartbeat.
That doesn't change no matter how small they are.
#abortionisnothealthcare
Twitter locked me out of my account because I posted a photo of an aborted full term baby. It said the photo was gratuitous gore and torture which is accurate. SO WHY ARE WE DOING THIS TO BABIES?
There is a massive difference between unplanned and unwanted. Also you can't force people to have children they don't want because it was fine in your case. There are millions of cases which aren't yours and turn out quite differently.
Progressive churches are more likely to talk politics/candidates than conservative ones.
Why aren't we discussing the "Christian nationalism" from the Left?
The double standards are so vivid.
Exclusive: Hunter Biden texted Hallie about his worst fears after he learned of the 'assassination' and 'arrest' of his Chinese business partners, the 'richest man in the world' and the 'spy chief of China.'
One thing I've learned talking with moms who got fatal diagnoses for their unborn babies, is that *most* physicians do not tell them about Perinatal Hospice.
Yet, they exist in nearly every state. Mommas, this is always an option:
If Planned Parenthood were about "healthcare" and serving women, why would they shut down when abortions became illegal? Why wouldn't they expand their services to help more women in need? Why not start offering prenatal care? And yet, they continue to close.
Let’s see how viral this can get 😂 in all seriousness, I’ve gotten SO many messages from people with this story! Beautiful testaments to life, every one.
Just got home from church. Random chat led to three of us all saying we felt prompted to start some kind of local advocacy for single moms in unplanned pregnancy. We’re setting up a meeting to discuss partnership with our church, local ministry & more. God is working.

It's called a heartbeat. Yours began at 20-ish days after conception. If you are reading this, the same one is still beating.
When I graduated from college, my biggest dream was to get married & be a mom.
So I’m guessing I’m not alone in that.
It didn’t happen as fast as I wanted, but being a mom has always been my most important & fulfilling job.

So I shared this (already public) video to TikTok & it was removed for “minor violation” aka endangering children. What’s that TikTok, you say this unborn child is a…child?
Btw: this baby was taken out & put back in for moms surgery!

I wanted to be married so much in my 20s. I wasn't & sometimes had to look on the bright side.
It's all I wanted to do but it wasn't happening. She probably wants to be married.
We all can't just "make it" happen. Those that get married young honestly just don't understand.
Her life doesn’t revolve around her family and kids so instead it revolves around TV shows and pop stars. Worst of all she’s too stupid to realize how depressing this is.
Historically, “gender dysphoria” almost entirely affected young males & 70% of cases were resolved in adulthood. As
@AbigailShrier
writes in “Irreversible Damage,” prior to 2012, there wasn’t even data on girls 11-21 ever having developed gender dysphoria.
The abortion industry was built upon racism.
We asked Planned Parenthood if they would accept donations to specifically abort black babies.
Here was their response.

Also, a girl doesn’t “make” a boy do or feel anything. He is responsible for himself. She doesn’t exist to keep him in check.
We're taking off the masks, but we also need to get back to normal sick days. Kids are going to have the sniffles. That doesn't mean they need to be sent home everytime.
First grader was just sent home from school. Not sick at all but apparently needed a tissue during speech therapy. School calls and says he’s not feeling well. He told me he never said that and I don’t see one sign of a runny or stuffy nose. How long are we going to do this.
Many pro-life pregnancy centers in Texas are overwhelmed with new clients (praise God!), and they need our help. Here’s a link to a registry for a center who says they really need baby supplies! Help if you can!
Doing research on how kids in foster care were affected by the pandemic and it is absolutely gut-wrenching. We failed kids who had already been failed by everyone else. The long term results for them will now be worse than they already were going to be.
This is not reporting. It’s opinion. No one was trying to hide anything. But I’m so glad everyone on Twitter knows how to use Google where everything I’ve ever done is quite public :)
Juneteenth should have been made a federal holiday a LONG time ago and I can’t believe I’ve seen people denigrating the fact that it is one now. Really, this is something we can actually agree on people.
