It appears parents and educators in the nation’s public school systems are starting to realize the degree of charlatanry associated with so-called “restorative discipline” practices.
A recent report out of Texas details how parents and community officials are questioning one district’s decade-long approach with such.
Restorative discipline (or “justice” or “practices”) is “founded on the belief that all children can behave appropriately with intervention,” and “encourages empathetic responses to misbehavior that reinforce better behaviors,” according to a report from KERA.
One parent said she was frustrated teachers don’t let her know about her child’s misbehavior until “something detrimental happens” — which is likely because they’re busy attempting various required interventions, as one teacher said.
As well-meaning as PBS (Positive Behavior Support, another fancy moniker for restorative practices) programs may be, there’s rarely enough follow-through or upkeep with the program. As more requirements are thrown at teachers, the less time they have to utilize the program’s approaches. […]

Why One Survival Food Company Shines Above the Rest
Let’s be real. “Prepper Food” or “Survival Food” is generally awful. The vast majority of companies that push their cans, bags, or buckets desperately hope that their customers never try them and stick them in the closet or pantry instead. Why? Because if the first time they try them is after the crap hits the fan, they’ll be too shaken to call and complain about the quality.
It’s true. Most long-term storage food is made with the cheapest possible ingredients with limited taste and even less nutritional value. This is why they tout calories so much. Sure, they provide calories but does anyone really want to go into the apocalypse with food their family can’t stand?
This is what prompted the Llewellyns to launch Heaven’s Harvest. They bought survival food from multiple companies and determined they couldn’t imagine being stuck in an extended emergency with such low-quality food. They quickly discovered that freeze drying food for long-term storage doesn’t have to mean sacrificing flavor, consistency, or nutrition.
Their ingredients are all-American. In fact, they’re locally sourced and all-natural! This allows their products to be the highest quality on the market, so good that their customers often break open a bag in a pinch to eat because they want to, not just because they have to due to an emergency.
At Heaven’s Harvest, their only focus is amazing food. They don’t sell bugout bags, solar chargers, or multitools. They have one mission – feeding Americans in times of crisis.
What they DO offer is the ability for people to thrive in times of greatest need. On top of long-term storage food, they offer seeds to help Americans for the truly long-term. They want them to grow their own food if possible which is why they offer only Heirloom, Non-GMO, Non-Hybrid, Open-Pollinated seeds so their customers can build permanent food security on their own property.
