Homeschooling works. We have two children who have graduated - one exclusively homeschooled - one attended the public high school for her junior and senior year.

They are both attending a local junior college and both have very good goals and aspirations.

Yes, sometimes it is hard make it on one income and there are certainly other challenges - however, it seems to produce polite, well adjusted, highly motivated kids (for the most part). I have seen a lot of kids come and go in the 12 years we have invested in homeschooling, and the bulk of the kids turn out great.

Not all families should homeschool - however, not all teachers should be teaching either. Nothing is perfect in this world. Usually, parents want what is best for their children - a parent will almost always be more highly motivated to provide an exceptional education.

a parent will almost always be more highly motivated to provide an exceptional education.

Because of this, parents will search exhaustively for the best materials for their kids. And what works for one child at a particular age, may not work for the child who follows, so the parents will get the materials which suit each child's learning styles. Public school teachers are limited in what can be offered as texts and can't accomodate the different learning styles in their classrooms.

Homeschooling works.

Which is why the Education Nazis in California want it outlawed. They're embarrassed at how well it works, and how miserably they've failed to reinvent the light bulb.

As a result, homeschoolers -- both parents and children -- need to be marginalized, demonized, criminalized and condemned.

They can't have anyone escaping the liberal indoctrination net.
