WWI troops were given many shots on their way to Europe. Many got flu symptoms on the boats to Spain, and the flu began in the camps there. When they returned, most of America got shot up to be 'protected' from the troops coming home with the flu. Many who were not vaxed got the flu and survived. I'll find links later to back this all up, I've gotta be with my kiddos now.

Quote from Prince Philip, the husband of Queen Elizabeth:
"In the event that I am reincarnated, I would like to return as a deadly virus, to contribute something to solving overpopulation." (1988)

We like ginger and turmeric together (fresh shredded or the powder), then add rice milk and honey or stevia to sweeten it. This was my favorite for pregnancy and works wonders for keeping the sickies away. Turmeric is anti-inflammatory and so helps the immune system.
-
Why would they over exaggerate and not do proper research? What is the fear propaganda doing? Who profits from it? The answers aren't too hard to see.

It's the first trimester to be careful with anything strong or bitter. Even vitamin c can be abortive in high doses then. Oil of oregano is safe for babies externally and very diluted in a carrier oil (1 drop in a teaspoon of oil), and I think it would be ok this way for later pregnancy.
The best immune boosters that I know of for early pregnancy are ginger and turmeric (shred for tea is good and in food). In ancient ayurveda, ginger has long been used and proven safe during early pregnancy. Echinacea (no goldenseal) and elderberry are supposedly safe as well. Colloidal silver might be good for your situation, too.

:blink:That makes about as much sense as givng up freedom so it isn't taken away.
Yes, obviously if one voluntarily gives up their freedoms the PTB won't have to bother with taking it away.
Neither bus is one I'm all that eager to encourage hoping on if one actually wants to make their own medical decisions and retain freedom.:001_huh:
Please let me clarify my point. I'm advising non-vaxers to not bother trying to change the minds of pro-vaxers because if everyone refuses this new flu vax, the PTB will force it on everyone. Instead of trying to convince and possibly offend, we're better off just praying for everyone to be guided and protected.
Speaking of history repeating itself, it's quite interesting to research the 1918 'Spanish' Flu pandemic and see what role vaccines and fear manipulation propaganda played in that.
-
One thing to consider is that if many people hop on the flu vax bus, the less chances there are of forced mandatory vaccination.
The FEMA trains are the modern day buses to avoid besides the vax and tamiflu.

You might want to check out Making of America: History of United States by Robert D. Johnston. Your library may have it.
When I was reading through rainbow resource's American history books, this book caught my eye because the reviewer's description said this:
"I would like to note, however, that like many other secular history books, this one tends to treat the beliefs of the Puritans as equal to the beliefs of the Native Americans, and seems to advocate the belief that because the "white man" believed that he was superior in race and religion, that it was all right to slaughter innocent Native Americans and mistreat slaves, servants, and immigrants of different races."
Then I checked it out on amazon, and reviewers were complaining that this book says that Columbus committed genocide. They quote the book to say this:
"Many historians argue that Columbus, along with many settlers over the three centuries that followed his arrival, committed genocide. When the Europeans arrived, the population of America was about 70 million people. Over the next four centuries, that figure fell by more than 90 percent. Millions of Indians died in what many scholars consider the greatest human disaster in all history."

If anyone is interested, here are some links debunking the Aryan Invasion Theory. Basically, there is no evidence in archeology or Vedic literature. In Sanskrit, the name 'Aryan' is never used for one race of people, but rather for righteous people of many races. In the Rig Vedia, the oldest of Vedic scriptures, 'Aryan' is used to describe noblemen. Many people in India do not believe this Aryan invasion theory told to us in our history books, so I thought I'd share.

Be forewarned that you cannot resell Enki books, and they require a lot of reading and work on mom's part. I spent hundreds of dollars on these books and now they mostly just sit on the shelf because I can't sell them. Oak Meadow and Christopherus are cheaper and resellable waldorf curriculums.

Oregano oil seriously works well. You can put it in your food or mix with oil to dilute for external use. Just smelling it will keep you safe. For babies, you put 1 drop in a teaspoon of oil and rub it on their feet and put in bath water. It keeps fevers down and all the works. Here's a few links about oregano oil:

Thieves oil saved the lives of thieves during the Black Plague. It was made from the essential oils of clove, lemon, cinnamon, eucalyptus, and rosemary. We also add lavender and oregano oil.

I think she would love MFW K or OM. Make some big, beautiful, blue butterfly wings and fly around for a week in the shape of a big B. I have both and if I had 4 kids and a baby, I'd go with MFW K since it's easier on mom. MFW has two worksheets per day, which could be stretched out to one per day, making each week last two weeks. OM has no worksheets, you use a blank page journal for the main lesson book. :)
-
I bought, read, and sold MFW 1st before using it because I could tell that the phonics would be way too fast without enough review (and also not silly/fun enough) for my ds.
We are happy with McRuffy. The readers are silly and funny, and each day's lesson has one workbook page. I think McRuffy K is very advanced for K...way more than MFW K (which we did for pre-k). I got an ETC book to possibly supplement with, and my ds was not interested one bit, and said he likes just McRuffy. It covers phonics for K, 1st, and 2nd. My ds needs it like that...slow and thorough with lots of review but not too much writing, as well as silly and fun, so we're sticking with McRuffy.
-
just to clarify something that not be all that important in the big picture...
In one year of MFW, called ECC, one part of the Bible focus in studying the book of Matthew. That year, in addition to studying the entire book of Matthew, MFW also uses Window on the World for prayer focus, and has character traits from Hero Tales (which is a history/geography tie in too)
In the program that the original poster is looking at, ADV, the Bible focus in the Names of Jesus.
on mfw's board, I wrote a longer list of what I've noticed in MFW's "scope and sequence" of Bible throughout the years. here's that post

MFW or HOD? Which one is God calling you to use?

Thanks for correcting that, Crystal. I mixed up Adventures and ECC...I guess I still forgot after reading the catalog a million times. ;)

Here's the thread (it's 5 pages!):

Thanks for the HOD review, Amy, we must have posted near the same time. I've gone back and forth between the two for a while now and it's nice to hear reviews about both.
-
Thanks for that review, Donna. I look forward to using Adventures in the future!
I read a long thread at homeschoolreviews.com with moms who have used both MFW and HOD, comparing the differences between the two. MFW has weekly grid schedules, HOD has daily schedules. MFW focuses on the book of Matthew, HOD focuses on many different scriptures that relate to the history themes. HOD focuses more on biographies, MFW is a general overview. MFW science stays with one theme for a while, HOD science changes daily. That's all I can remember right now. HTH!

My plan for K is to introduce world geography through stories and then go into US geography, (then US history and then ancients and the 4 year history cycle after that).
I got some passports and flag stickers for all of the countries and states from Rainbow Resource. I'm using Galloping The Globe as a starting point, it has maps and flags to copy and color, some general info, and a nice list of library books.
I'm adding other books used by Sonlight, MFW ECC, FIAR, and HSS, too. I just bought The Complete Book Of Animals, an atlas, and Wild Places and they look great! My library has Janice Vancleave's Science Around The World, Global Art, and other multicultural craft books to go along with each country. I might buy Around The World In 80 Tales as well. I got Children Just Like Me from the library and my ds wasn't so into it, although I thought it was great...maybe later on, he's way more into animals at this point.
Here's an awesome blog from a mom using GTG:

I've wondered about Primary Phonics after reading some good reviews about it in this thread about less well known curriculums:

There's also Christian Cottage (God Bless America).

I don't have any suggestions, but I will be watching this thread because I'm half Cantonese and would like to learn it later when my kids are older.
My grandmother spoke it fluently, but she encouraged my dad to learn English without an accent so that he could be more successful in America, so he doesn't know very much.

There's also Christopherus if you're considering waldorf:

Yes, thank you. It was this post that I was thinking about.
Yeah, that is a lot of good info, but I was disappointed that the link at the end says "Get the H1N1 flu shot as soon as it is available in the fall"...

Turmeric, flax seed oil, vitamin c, colloidal silver, elderberry, echinacea, and essential oils of eucalyptus, rosemary, lavender, clove, lemon, etc. and avoid refined sugar or gmo foods.
For autoimmune disorders especially, look into more omega fatty acids and anti-inflammatory foods.
Did you read a post here about cytokine storm on a different swine flu thread? It was very well written and had a lot of good ideas.Here's a thread you might be talking about:
