Those who can’t educate indoctrinate
Her soul and those like her need deliverance from satanic bondage and lies. Pray for Chrissy and those believing they need to change their gender - that they may be delivered from destroying their life and the lives of others.
OMG, CHRISSY, HOW, IN THE NAME OF SANITY, DID YOU GET A PLATFORM TO EXPRESS...NONSENSE?
Freedom of Speech should have some limits.
They should go after the public schools first for protecting kids from miseducation and abuse.
Of course parents have control over their kids. It’s their right and responsibility. Who else do they think should have that right? As if I need to ask.
THEM????
This is the mindset we are up against.
Wow, before I finished reading your comment, I began thinking of the hundreds of perfectly normal homeschool kids that I’ve known over the years. (We homeschooled for 25 years and I’m deeply involved with a youth adventure ministry that has an overabundance of homeschoolers in it)
My first thought was how independent most of them are. My own kids all moved out by 19 or 20. One is a far to highly compensated astronautical engineer. The rest have normal jobs (trucker, book editor and Nanny)
I’ve known a couple who were actual supergenius level brainiacs (Machelors degree at 17 level) None of them are lighting up the world. Smarts at a young age doesn’t translate to anything unusual.
When our first kid was born, my wife and I purposed to make them just a little more independent every single day. That way when they moved out, they stayed out.
Get your kids out of public school and demand a reduction in taxes.
Then next group to be given their “terrorist tag” by the FBI.
That’s absolutely absurd. There are no discussions of that sort. When we homeschooled our children it was simple. We just used the same things to beat our children that our parents beat us. /s
The woman who wrote this article is one psycho bitch.
It’s Pat!
There should be no regulation of home schooling. That's rather the point.
Not a woman, see #23 but he is a paid liar anyhow
Hmmm... needs more use of “scare quotes.”
…The under-regulation of homeschooling and Christian schools is a nationwide issue ...
Only for deranged and unhinged leftists who want full control of your children....to force their perverted agenda on them. Can’t have PARENTS being in control over what their own children learn/see/do.
Evil monsters.
Amen.
I prefer not to click on that link ;-)
Can you give us a recap of who their sick donors are? TIA.
You are correct. This business about every homeschooled child is a little genius is rather unintelligent. If you know anything about IQ’s and statistics then you’ll understand that with any large population you’ll have some people on the lower end of the bell curve, others on the high end, and whole bunch in the middle. Homeschooling allows learning to occur at the pace that matches the child’s ability and interest. Yes, it sometimes takes longer for a bright child to learn something he is disinterested.
There’s a difference between testing methods that evaluate what a child has learned and how intelligent a child is. SATs and ACTs are essentially proxies for an IQ test. That’s quite different than a subject matter test, particularly after just learning the subject. Both types of tests pale in comparison in the test of real life - the lessons absorbed and used in daily life. That goes for academics AND wisdom.
If I had to do homeschooling over again, I would focus more time on wisdom. It’s not that my children are not wise, but everyone should be more wise. That’s the key to eradicate stupidity. I’m pretty sure everyone has done something stupid in their lives, even the most intelligent among us. Stupidity is not the lack of intelligence. People do stupid things when they don’t exercise their wisdom. That’s pretty easy to do if you just limit wisdom to learning good behavior - manners and abiding the laws.
But back to the homeschool testing matter. I suspect, on average, that homeschooled children would test better on proficiency tests for reading, mathematics and science - the tests that are used in government schools these days. My reasoning is that there is very little material taught in school that isn’t learnable by any child of average intelligence or better, particularly when homeschool teaching and learning tend to be at the pace of the child’s abilities. Although, I am not certain that those tests contain questions that are devoid of CRT, and other leftist pollution. It would be difficult to test well on crap that a child doesn’t learn.
Those limits exist by either not listening or not believing what is said. You always have the right of more free speech to counter tripe like what’s in this article.

A little search revealed that “Chrissy” is actually a guy. This is my shocked face . . .
