we are raising our children for old fashioned courtship instead of the dating rat race. There is no need for my children to go out and sow any oats with anyone. When they are ready for marriage is the time to start looking for a partner not before.”
This is the right answer. I pray for Christian homeschooled wives for my sons, and I have discussed the immoral, dysfunctional dating culture with them. Right now they are too busy with flying, karate, piano, traveling to China, etc. to be concerned about teenaged girls.
At homeschool conferences and conventions I always have my eye out for prospective DILs ;-)
Don’t discount FreeRepublic as a courtship site - I met my husband here! We’d probably been to one or two homeschool conventions at the same time as each other growing up but as I’d have been twelve at the time, we wouldn’t have met there... You can do an old fashioned courtship online maybe even more easily than in person.
