The Orwellian West

And now, we're becoming breeders for the state... at least, they are over in the UK.  No more raising your children yourselves. Oh no. You are merely an agent of the government.  Is that Little Boy Blue you're reading to the baby, Mrs. Smith?  That's it!  That child is coming with us...  If you think the article seems harmless enough, follow the rabbit trail.

Anyone want to exit the Matrix now?

  1. Holy CRAP !!! You have got to be kidding me. If that is the case then perhaps they should suppliment the income to include the fact that not every person has the time and the energy to put into such things as nursery rhymes. How idiotic is this? This has to be a scam! Right? While I sung to my daughters nightly and read them stories, the second that I had to become a full time provider alone, that went by the wayside. There were times when it was all I could do to say good-night. Many times, I would sit on the floor in between the two rooms and sing and then pray them to sleep. But when I became the sole provider, it changed drastically. Sadly so, but I had to pay the bills.
