“Huxley said bonding between young and old is accomplished through caressing and would like to see more men become involved in the nurturing process.
“It’s very good for men to do this because they also need the feeling of being caressed,” she said. “Kids need to see men as much as women. It’s never too late to start…………It’s makes them feel happy and there’s nothing more beneficial than a little tiny hand coming over, touching and reaching out,” she said. “
Considering what happened in Australia with respect to the child-care chain ‘ABC Learning’, who had 40% of the child-care market, which went out of business under rather odd circumstances (short-selling on the stock-market is mentioned here:
http://www.abc.net.au/news/2008-02-28/not-as-easy-as-abc/1057488)
where these children ended up I found rather interesting.
The last I read the children were in the hands of a consortium of charities one of which was implementing the ‘Big Brother, Big Sister’ programme.
When discussions were under way in the UK with respect to what ‘programme’ children were going to subjected to, there was debate as to whether it was going to be the ‘Teens and Toddlers Sustainability Replication Programme’ (step one of the 6 step ‘Children Our Ultimate Investment’, which concludes with ‘Project Caressing’) or ‘Big Brother, Big Sister’.

how to build and maintain personal and family relationships, and an effective mentoring scheme, perhaps like the successful big brother, big sister scheme in the USA. Other possibilities include the roots of empathy scheme, under which a class adopts a baby to develop empathetic behaviour, and the teens and toddlers scheme, which is favoured by the Cabinet Office. Finally, health services, the police and children’s services could share data so that we can catch people at the earliest possible stage.
So I take it that the ‘Big Brother, Big Sister’ programme in some way equates to ‘Teens and Toddlers Sustainability Replication Programme’. (Which is the one the UK government went with).
It seemed to me that the situation of the child-care market in Australia, with ABC Learning having such a huge chunk of the market and then going bankrupt under odd circumstances, looked suspiciously like bulk trafficking of children into very odd social engineering programmes. (Not such an odd concept when you consider that UK academy schools are being sold to GEMS (Global Education Management Systems) in Dubai. It is also possible that the eugenics ‘Opening Minds’ curriculum (courtesy of the RSA) is being introduced to 100 million children in the third world via GEMS, Blair’s Faith Foundation, Clinton’s Global Initiative as well as the charity ‘Dubai Cares’.
If the images on The Dream Mill website (research and consultancy, who process the data coming out of the ‘Teens and Toddlers Sustainability Replication Programme’) are anything to go by, the training of young children to be tactile with men, and the ‘Project Caressing’ programme, are having some success.
As I said to someone in the UK recently, when was the last time you heard children playing in the streets?
The streets are silent.
How did this happen?
(Perhaps they’re under the table with an elderly man).
With respect to the photograph at the top of this page, which comes from ‘The Dream Mill’ website, I still do not understand what the photographer was doing under the table.
