I home school, but certainly not because Evolution is wrong. I do it because the math/science education in this country is so deplorable. I decided I couldn't constantly tell my boys that their teachers were wrong without undermining confidence and discipline. So I teach them math and science at home and I teach them cutting edge concepts and I teach the Evolution and the voluminous data in its support.

People who home school for education purposes are trying to avoid reality. I am trying to give my kids a real understanding of science. I don't want them to be illiterate.

education = religious

Sigh, it's early.

I'm sure you're doing a very good job, too. When I was in elementary school, and from then on, science fascinated me. There wasn't enough of it in school, so, starting at age 8, I started reading on my own. By the time I had graduated from high school, I had read every book in the Dewey Decimal 500 range that was available in my small town library.

Granted, that was a little wierd of me, but I still found time to do all the other stuff kids are supposed to do. I'm a fast reader, and it was a pretty small library.
