I caught just a few minutes of the interview today, but Michael Medved’s show today featured “Dr. Anonymous” the author of Unprotected: A Campus Psychiatrist Reveals How Political Correctness in Her Profession Endangers Every Student. This looks like a must read for any parent concerned about their children’s well-being.

A big thanks to everyone who left recorded messages and those in attendance at the surprise birthday party for my dad! I will have pictures up on Flickr in a few days.
My pictures from Destin have been posted to Flickr.
Congratulations Derek and Jessica. We are so happy for you that you were able to bring Zoe home from China. Enjoy parenthood!
May God continue to bless the three of you.
Shannon and I watched a wonderful film on KERA tonight:
“The Teachings of Jon” is an insightful, soul-touching and funny documentary about my brother Jon, a 40-yr old man, severely and profoundly affected by Down syndrome. He has an IQ of 20, doesn’t talk and earns less than $13.00 a year. Although Jon may never accomplish much in this world, he has an important purpose here…not necessarily to learn, but to teach.
My parent’s biggest fear was that having a child with a mental disability in the family would bring everyone else down. In fact, the opposite is true. “The Teachings of Jon” shows how the “family secret” locked away in an institution for the first 7 years of his life became the family treasure, teaching my family the most important lesson of all, how to love.
What a wonderful blessing it must be to know Jon! Thank you Lord for creating him and thank you that my ways are not your ways and my thoughts are not your thoughts (paraphrased Isaiah 55:8-9).
I highly recommend this film when it airs in your area.
