This page is information for the parents and the church. This is a calculation to try to estimate the extent of various influential authorities in the public school (PS) child's behavior or performance. HISways USA, Inc. believes that the major influencers in the life of the child is determined by the lines of authority based on time. It is obvious that parents have the largest and
longest influence in a child's life but what is the effect of the public school? of the church? Consider the time invested:

1. This is for "PERFECT" Attendance; "OTHER"Attendance's might be 0..3% of Total Child
Hrs.! (See "Once Through Bible Chart" for various "other attendance's".)
2. This calculation is unable to quantify the "structured" school indoctrination verses the "unstructured" parental methods.
What is the effect of the Church's discipleship? All things being equal, there isn't much effect when viewed from a Church Child Hrs. vs School Child Hrs. basis. A ratio of only "1 Perfect Church hr." vs 8.On a discipleship basis we cannot expect the church to hold the line, or even effectively counter, the PS's
dogma! Therefore, the Church Child Hours being such a small percentage will be added to the Net Parent Child Hours to get an Effective Parent Child percentage of 84%. That leaves the child's two major official authority influencers and disciplers*. as:
2. The school:School Child Hours ( " structured 2. " ) = 16% of Total Child Hours.
On the surface this looks like an easy win for parents; however, today's advice for PS parents is: 1.) to get actively involved with their child's school, i.e. involved with: 2.) teachers, 3.) homework and 4.) hands on textbook reviews and 5.) critique: syllabuses, curricula, events, speakers, etc. so that after all this 'involvement' parents have become "structured2. "in order to counter the PS's dogma!
*. This word is intentionally used in this sense because our PS children are being disciplined to excel at rebellion and heathenism.
** This page was reworked to determine whether the PS gained influence as high school graduation neared. Astoundingly the answer is Yes! Check it out: CalcPrim04.htm .
