Inventors of Social Pedagogy

By Niko Roswell –

New Hampshire usually goes first. It began with voting but has trickled into NH education, law, church, and culture. After the federal separation of church and state, New Hampshire began to go first in all things criminal.

Four nuns were allowed to sue the bishop, the US’s first court case was televised via State of N.H. vs. Pamela Smart, the Attorney General of N.H. was the first to make a “deal” with the Catholic Church, and most recently NH is the first to expose the rampant abuse at its Youth Detention Centers. New Hampshire goes first, and the country follows, a story as old as time. However, it appears that Berlin Germany has beat New Hampshire at sounding the alarm on Social Pedagogy.

20+ years ago, I stood before New Hampshire residents on television to call out the financial bribes between Saint Thomas Aquinas High School, Diocese of Manchester, Dover, N.H. School Board, Dover Police Department, and the University of New Hampshire via the Cooperative Extension. This ring of Social Inventors couldn’t fool me with its Teen Assessment Project (TAP).

The University of New Hampshire archiving efforts of the Cooperative Extensions -Teen Assessment Project (TAP) failed to include my articles & letters that were quoted in the Boston Globe and circulated in political circles around the country. I had a dramatic impact on TAP, the Diocese of Manchester opted out of children taking it. This matter is further complicated by TAP survey results being touted as factual N.H. Teen Data. Only N.H. public school teens took the survey, it never showed N.H. teen statistics. This “data” was needed for UNH to grab federal funds. Unlike many of my peers, I do not automatically trust “experts” who were tossing $300,000.00 at the city of Dover N.H. such as TAP did. Social Pedagogy is full of bad actors who love to be called Inventors. Social Pedagogy is concerned with how a society thinks about its children, how it cares for them, educates them, and how they (the culture created by adults) raises children. Social Pedagogy is states overstepping on parental rights.

Trauma Responses, PTSD, and Dissasscoation are all triggered when child victims revisit traumatic memories. When a child is forced to sit in a room surrounded by peers and answer personal/private questions via a survey, the children with negative experiences are “triggered.” A child’s brain is still underdeveloped and cannot adequately cope after being triggered.

As a child, I challenged UNH, TAP, church & state because I had the foresight to realize I was not emotionally equipped for the questions in the survey. I realized my peers may be in the same boat. This is the late 90s, the abuse caused by Catholic clergy and the Boy Scouts is unfolding. TAP appeared before the U.S. just as child sexual abuse began to plague the country and world, so I got loud. I didn’t want my data via my survey answers to help abusive groups secure insurance to cover the wave of future lawsuits. After all, data is always sold to the highest bidder. I was also sworn to secrecy by my family. My family had hired a controversial Catholic, Dr. Vincent Rue, to “Treat” me. As a child, I certainly could not take a survey about when I lost my virginity.

As a grown adult, I will now tell you I lost my virginity before my 8th birthday. The individual who took my virginity was ordained by the Diocese of Manchester, his name was Rev. Leonard Foisy. I was an easy target because sexual and physical abuse of children is rampant in my family. Preditors could spot me from a mile away. It is a well-known fact that my grandfather Richard Thayer Hastings of N.H. is a pedophile. The street named Allen Hastings Way in Union, N.H. bears his name, the Allen family lived across the street with a young daughter.

I was abused often. My parents’ 1989 divorce and custody battle touched on the surface of my family dynamics. The court documents are so disturbing they were sealed. These court cases about me went on for years. Lawyers subpoenaed neighbors and involved private investigators. Amid the court battles, I was moved into the home of my pedophile grandfather. My family isolated me from everyone and everything I knew. The red flag the state of N.H. ignored — My older sister was allowed to remain with our support system. I was sent away and discarded.

While at Chamberlain St. School in Rochester, N.H., teachers seldom saw any of my family. I was that kid, just on his own. When I came to school with my jaw dislocated the school had to intervene. It was here in 1990 that I met 3rd grade teacher Mr. Michael Quigley. A Social Inventor is who Quigley sought to be. He had a deep interest in my child custody case. He was dating the assistant of my school counselor, and he knew private details about my child custody case. Quigley also had affection for my classmate, a resident of Saint Charles Orphanage. Quigley expressed interest to his colleagues about legally adopting my classmate.

Quigley organized field trips to the orphanage, was perpetually in feuds with parents, had countless male children removed from his classroom, and was grooming me. I was removed from his class because he was keeping me in from recess and rubbing my crotch. Quigley left the Rochester School District around the same time that Rochester Superintendent George Reid was convicted of sexual abuse.

Somersworth N.H. hired Quigley. He held positions in special education and teaching. He was also a vice principal and principal. Quigley was a key figure in a lawsuit against the Somersworth, N.H. school district involving federal funds, UNH, and a study that was accused of producing false claims. Quigley was at the center of the study and was considered an expert. Quigley developed a positive behavior support program at Somersworth Early Education. The Program was backed by the NH RESPONDS initiative under the NH Department of Education and combined with the consultation services by the New Hampshire Center for Effective Behavioral Interventions and Supports at the Southeastern Regional Education Service Center, Inc. Quigley later surrendered his teaching license for “performance issues”.

Michael Quigley became an expert for the state of NH when he became the Mckinney Vento Liason for Unaccompanied Minors, one of his many inappropriate roles alongside his being a Director for the Boy Scouts at Camp Carpenter and working at a children’s group home.

Quigley also created the Somersworth Middle School Advisory, which he said is “to ensure that every individual student at SMS has one adult who knows that individual well and can be an understanding advocate.” He also stated it was to “help students learn about themselves.”

My trust in family, church, and state was terminated by the time I was age 10. I did not trust the Teen Assessment Projects Social Inventors. My family is linked to the Diocese of Manchester and the Rochester N.H. Police Department. I was forced to honor and respect my grandfather after he sexually assaulted me and others. I had emotionally immature parents who were violent beyond your wildest imagination- I feared for my life. As a child, my “Buddhist” aunt took me on a camping trip. She crawled into my tent and tried to force me to give her oral sex. I had to praise a god whose disciple priest forcibly inserted his penis in my mouth as a child. I was groomed by Michael Quigley, who later raped me in his four-door budget sedan. The abuse I suffered did not fit into the University of New Hampshire Teen Assessment Project’s multiple-choice survey.

Quigley’s beliefs on education look oddly similar to the ideas of Helmet Kentler, a pioneer in Social Invention. Kentler adopted boys and placed countless other children in the homes of pedophile men in Germany. The Berlin Senate has an ongoing investigation of Kentler’s experiments as victims continue to come forward.

It is the Universität Hildesheim’s independent investigation of the Kentler experiments that most intrigues me. On page 6 in the opening paragraph, a New Hampshire resident is mentioned, James B. Conant, former President of Harvard. Conant was on Berlin’s Pedagogical Centre Committee which approved the million-dollar budget to place German children with pedophiles. New Hampshire directly links to the Kentler Experiments. In 1966 while Conant was still active in German education, he was simultaneously the University of New Hampshire Commencement Speaker.

Conant died in Hanover, New Hampshire shortly after publishing, My several lives; memoirs of a Social Inventor.

I contacted Michael Quigley’s former roommate, Rev. Michael Taylor, for comment. Neither the Diocese of Manchester nor Rev. Michael Taylor responded.
