  Do you know what goes on in a typical modern classroom? Have you noticed how many children actually hate going into school and the effect school has on them? Do you  yourself feel an irrational fear of authority, ridiculously low in resilience, self-worth and self-confidence?You are not alone. This book reveals the dark agenda of the modern schooling system and its toxic effects on both pupils and teachers alike. Since it was first printed, the situation in the classroom has deteriorated catastrophically. Insane indoctrination, psychological torture and hyper-sexualisation are now the order of the day. Included are personal testimonies and rare insights into how we are damaged and traumatised by our schooling and how this affects our entire life. It suggests ways forward that could inspire you to take the necessary drastic action, including taking boys and girls out of school, to help save future generations from what is fast becoming an existential threat to mankind.
