I am FED up with you. It is none of your business where other people place their children.

I have my children in our local school. We moved here to get into this school. I volunteer, and I am personal friends with the principal, and many of the teachers. I live in an extremely conservative city that runs its own schools.

There are Bible verses up on the wall and controversial subjects are expected to be covered at home.

I support homeschoolers, and I am sick to death with the lack of respect many of them show to other parents' decisions.

"There are Bible verses up on the wall"

In a public school? How did you guys manage that? The next state west of you lost a good judge for just having a monument of the Ten Commandments on Government property. You may want to keep this to yourself before you know who out of San Fran hears about it and forces you guys to stop. Until that happens praise Jesus for your freedom.

Huh?

For all these years it is homeschoolers who have constantly been explaining: Yes, it is legal. Yes, their children are socialized. Yes, parents who aren't certified teachers CAN teach their children.

It is time for homeschoolers to STOP being defensive. The evidence is now in. Homeschoolers thrive academically and socially. Homeschooling produces children who on average excel far and above institutionalized children. The most elite colleges and universities are eagerly seeking them and admitting them because they are highly creative, self-motivated, socially mature, and bring many talents to the campus environment.

Sorry,,,,it is the parent who institutionalizes their child who now needs to defend their decision.

In my opinion, ( which will be eventually proven) is that homeschooling is the healthiest and most natural way to raise a child. Homeschooling will continue to grow because it is good for children.

This is not to judge you personally. Obviously, you are doing what you think is best for your child given your set of circumstances.
