Can't wait to give you my thoughts on it.

I won't belabor the point...



If someone has children who do not obey and they home school- the issue is not home schooling. The child is disobedient. Maybe the parents are not in control of their children or the child might have a problem that you are unaware of - whatever the case might be - it is a heart issue. What if this child is disobedient at home, however, in the school classroom he/she acts fine & orderly? There is a problem that needs to be addressed. PLEASE stop blaming home education. Sometimes, the problems cease when the child is brought home because the parent is forced to deal with the sin in order to educate their son/daughter. When someone says, "I could never home school Blair because she would argue with me the entire time." There is an issue that needs to be confronted. WHY does Blair argue with the authority that God has placed in her life? WHY not use these opportunities to make Blair look at her own heart and listen to your voice. WHY? Because it is difficult. Are there other scenarios in which these authority lessons can be learned? Sure. However, there is something different that happens in these lessons. So, PLEASE do not blame an entire system of education on bad parenting or misplaced worship. I will not do this to the form of education that you have chosen for your child. Thank you.
