Worrying PSA from **1941** on what contributes to create Nazis:

Worrying, and ominous, because THAT "type of education, feeding etc... " is exactly what #overparenting plus #socialmedia are and do nowadays.

States are trying to fight #socialmedia for harming #children

But #parents should look wider than social media, to demand something else (and NO, it's NOT sport)

New Blog Post from #edtechman. I just finished the book "Coddling of the American Mind."
