β€œWe want to parent our kids until they're 18 and ready to make decisions by themselves. Whatever decision they make later, that's a decision as an adult."

The harder you parent, the stronger your children push back.

For a group of concerned parents, they seem to know less than me, and I've only been parenting for about 6 years.

Parental influence on behaviour begins dropping around the age of 6. At that point external influences, like friends at school, stat becoming more important. By adolescence it has dropped to around 50%. By 20 it is 0%. When you let a kid breathe and make mistakes, they will listen to you without needing overbearing control...

Clearly, this whole thing stinks of money. They are buying targeted ads on FB and adding a layer of embarrassment that will see Canada mocked and ridiculed. This is a hate group.

I'd love to know too. And not just for this, for everything. I live in France now, and not that long ago there was a fundraiser for a police officer. He never received his money because the government stepped in. They discovered that a very high amount of money was coming from Americans for some reason. I would wager that some of the money being put towards this protest is coming from a mix of confused citizens, politicians, and religious groups from around the world. Likely the same people that organize "whites only" parties.

This is just a guess, mind you.

Although US specific "dark money" https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dark_Money_(book), provides some answers.

The Netflix show has nothing to do with the book
