We will all have to stand before God one day and give an account of the things we did, and how we discharged the stewardship of those things he entrusted to us.

When people ask why we home-schooled our 3 children I am telling them the truth: We love them and could not in good conscience send them to the cess-pool of the public schools.
My daughter socialized with other kids, kids at church, and kids in the neighborhood. She also socialized with young adults, and every other age group she was exposed to. Children in public school would fight over socializing with someone a year younger or older, and if forced, it would end in violence, usually on the younger person. My daughter is now able to relate to people twice her age and half her age seamlessly. She is a self starter and doesn't need to be forced to do beneficial things for herself. She is 32 now and lives on her own, has always worked, never was pregnant without a husband, no drugs, and is now a cop. Did I mention she's not in my basement?
