I watched freepers nearly 20 years ago disparage home schooling.

‘we don’t want OUR kids to be weird little home school kids!’

‘OUR schools don’t teach that commie crap, OUR teachers voted for Reagan’.

etc.

Now many of them bemoan the fact that their 20 and 30 something kids are all lefties...’but life really will teach them a lesson!’. Life hasn’t so far, and soon they + the imported foreigners will make it impossible to elect anyone to the right of Stalin.

Then they will have to go thru what countless generations before them did.

My grandparents escaped Ukraine and Russia. My parents survived Depression, WWII and a youthful episode with commies in DC before the War. (They transferred out to what was then the boonies).

I was once a naive organizer on the left who got burned by them. I moved. They followed. I’m moving again. Hopefully, the time I have left + my soon-to-be-new-home will combine to provide some peace and security.

I lost my only child to the culture. I watch friends struggle with the same happening to their kids. It’s painful, but all we have is faith and tough love.

These young adults and young adolescents will learn.....or they won’t and they will suffer. Or they will die.

This is the way it has always been. Birthrights bought and sold for little or nothing. Civilizations rise and fall. No one promised us a thing, except Christ. And then, there is always free will and willful blindness.

I did home school my kids 20 years ago.

Once the daughter hit college, the kool-aid was served and quaffed in copious amounts...

You got your choice now — have smart uneducated kids that you can still talk with or have educated idiots that have learned how to successfully partner with bulls—t and think that they are superior to everyone else not trained in their brand of stupid.
