“Masks impede language development and they also impede the process of kids learning how to read.”
PM:
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has quietly changed their standards for early childhood development, as the effects of pandemic policies on children’s development, from speech to reading to other basics, becomes increasingly more apparent.
Earlier this month, the CDC announced that new checklist ages for its important milestone lists were added. These new ages added were 15 and 30 months.
The update banner at the top of the page points those interested in the updates to the developmental milestones to a Pediatrics article outlining the research conducted that resulted in the change. more
They had to lower the standards because of the f***ing damn masks they force the children to wear–and because the children haven’t been able to have decent speech assessments/therapy due to closed schools.
One of the MANY reasons I have given notice for the end of this school year. I can’t take being a mask Nazi for 3- and 4-year-olds anymore.
Aaaaaaaaaaaannnnnd before ya know it they’ll be lowering the voting age to 5…
Eh!, speech is overrated. Once you give the people speech, then they will want it “free” and clamor for silly Amendments protecting it. Best just to leave speech for those that know how to control it.
Maybe I am out of touch, but why is the CDC defining language standards? Isn’t that somewhat outside of what its name suggests?
Exactly, RogerF. But I reckon that when CDC mission crept its way into gun control, anything became possible. Maybe we need a Center for Bureaucracy Control—no, what the hell am I thinking?

so that they are not held liable for the massive rise in illiteracy and verbal speech delay.
Your kid is not retarded if everyone is retarded.
I did that.
Well they lowered what the standards of a vaccine is as well why stop lowering standards. Now just look at our lower standards of President and Vice President.
They’re gonna sacrifice the children at the altar of the branch covidians.
Childhood obesity will be next.
200 lbs will be considered normal for a seven year-old…
Have you heard Biden or Harris speak? No wonder they lowered the standards. Not much to aspire to!
Good one Joe Squid.
To awaken first graders’ “sexuality” (How I hate that word), they’ll replace Dick and Jane readers with Dick in Jane readers.
