"Stay, stay at home, my heart, and rest;
Home-keeping hearts are happiest,
For those that wander they know not where
are full of trouble and full of care;
To stay at home is best."

Circle of Socialization
Confessor posted a good entry a few days ago. He was a little put off by the fact that a supposedly Christian radio station was singing the delights of "the most wonderful day of the year" for mothers: the first day of school -- so the kids can get out of the house and leave them alone.
A child must have good socialization skills, the pro-publics maintain. But hold on, let's look and see what socialization really is. What does the Wikster say about the term?
Socialization for social agents (humans)
Socialization is, in essence, learning (see Charon, 1987:63-69). Socialization refers to all learning regardless of setting or age of the individual. In every group one has to learn the rules, expectations, and knowledge of that group, whether the group is your family, the army, or the state (nation). Socialization is the process whereby people acquire a social identity and learn the way of life within their society. All of this amounts to the learning of culture.
(end wiki)
So to have good socialization abilities, one must understand and function within COMMUNITY. In a homeschool, this boils down to parents, siblings, neighbors, pastors, church family, sports and outside curriculuar activities (like the librarian or piano tutor) - anyone newborn to elderly and everything in between. This is a child's society. Within that society they find their own identity. By the way, a hundred years ago and backwards, this was everyone's idea of society (family, township, church). The age segregation experiment is very modern. Wiki basically says socialization is the learning of and interacting within the surrounding culture. Homeschool parents have determined which parts of the culture to expose their kids to - and which to shelter them from. So are homeschool kids lacking?
What about food? Should a well-adjusted child eat good food, and should they not be exposed to numerous, diverse foods? How about exotic foods? And plain foods, ones which, contrasted with more complex dishes, provide a positive, accurate world view about....food. I guess it's a good idea, right? I mean, then the kid will be well-rounded, intellectually and culturally about various foods (might be well-rounded physically too). But wait. There's more. If we are going to be serious about our "food culture" we give to our children, it must be all or nothing. No picking and choosing. There are rotten foods, poison foods, bitter foods, even foods that are "sub-eatables" like ones riddled with trans-fats and chemicals. But they're food! Who are you to call it slop? Food is food. Enjoy it all. Dive headlong into any and all. It's intolerable that you shelter your child from food. And that means ALL food, poison or otherwise. Immerse them in nasty, wicked foods so that they can thank God for the good foods, yes? (No, that's stupid, yet there are "Christian" proponents hoping you'll fall for it)
Next time you get someone bugging you about the "socialization" myth, ask them to please define socialization - and not their definition, the dictionary's. It's likely they can't tell you what it is - or how you are misusing it with your children. And no, we don't have to "tolerate" the kind of social behavior exhibited in schools in the name of "social-lifing" our kids. A true socialization process happens in the real world - society. It doesn't morph accurately inside a public school petrie dish. The fastest way to lose your sense of society is to be herded rank and file into an institution with a bunch of clones. What, is each clone supposed to learn (and teach) social graces from the clone sitting behind him? How backwards can we get? Just as we guard our children from bad food, we guard them from bad culture. They don't have to taste dung to be made enlightened that it's there. Saturate your child with good, delicious, nutritious food. All that is lovely, true, and beautiful.
Parents: you know the truth. Don't let the naysayers distract. Focus instead on your kiddos; train them up as tomorrow's leaders, tomorrow's pastors. Break through the socialization circle; it's all nonsense. Keep them home.

Aug. 22, 2006 - Hi Gena
I agree almost 100% with everything you write. I do have a ? though. Several of my friends decided to put their children in public schools this year. They have told me that God led them there and that public school was where He wanted their children. What do you say to that? They all seem very happy with their decision and talk about how much God is teaching them thru being in ps.

As "mean" as this may sound, I believe your friends are deceived. God sends ADULTS out into the world to be salt and light (consider Ninevah). He speaks directly to us through His word. What does the bible say about raising children? We are to instruct them in HIS ways all day long. How can we do this if they are not with us? It's so easy for people to say, "God showed me this," or "The Lord led me to do that," but if it doesn't match up against the word of God, they're listening to something other than Him.
What if the Lord "told you" (in your mind, anyway) to drop your child off at the local strip joint to be salt and light to all the hookers there? You'd have to question your capability to "hear" Him, I'd say. That's why you can never go wrong by sticking to His word alone. He's not leading your friends to deposit their children into a system that HATES Him. That would be absurd. He is not asking your friends to sacrifice them for the sake of evil. That's ridiculous. He is saying the same thing He's always said in the past, and that is to train them up in a way they should go. To walk with them, talk with them, worship with them, build their character, love them. To send them away all day to an institution which by its very nature, hates Him, is wrong. It's morally wrong. It's not why He gave your friends their children. They should keep their kids home where they belong, and obey God. God won't ask us to disobey Him.

Aug. 22, 2006 - Food for lions
My two oldest girls and I attended our church's youth group gathering Sunday night. The youth group leader had a talk prepping the kids for the start of school on Monday (yesterday). It was interesting, because his comparison was Daniel in the lions' den! He was trying to get these kids ready for the "lions" that will face them each and every day in the public school. I could barely hold back. Daniel was sent into the lions' den by his *enemies* who wanted to see him dead; these kids are being sent into the "lions' den" by *their parents*! Further, Daniel experienced this horrendous ordeal for one night; these kids get to do it day after day, year after year. Eeek!! These adults *know* it's bad at ps...but all they can do is pray and counsel their kids to read their Bibles and "stand up for what's right." Ish.
Thanks for telling it like it is.

I love your blog and the message you try to get out to the world. If only more people knew how much they were losing by sending their innocent little babes to school. Thank you for posting these informative and enlightening items.

PS I don't always comment, but I always read & enjoy!!

Aug. 22, 2006 - You put it so well.
This is just what I was thinking but could not put into words! Public school just does not make sense to me. Why would I want to send my child there? I don't even want to take my toddler to playgroup anymore!
Thanks again for a great post.

I don't think you could have said this better. Thank you so much, and please keep this post on here forever. I've felt inadequate trying to define why I am not interested in the socialization at public school-not in my own mind and heart, but when trying to explain to others who may not have a Christian worldview.
Thank you, thank you. You are terrific at expressing yourself!!!

Aug. 23, 2006 - Amen and Amen!
Gena, you really do articulate it so well!
My husband was commenting to me about an article on Crosswalk today which reaffirmed in his heart the real reason we should be homeschooling - that it is not only that public school is wicked and anti-God (that should be cause enough); but he says this:
"I think this articulates well the reason for home schooling (or might I say Christian Education). Rather than PubSchool is bad, the issue should be maybe articulated differently for Christians. Maybe, can PubSchool adequately prepare the Christian for a Christ world view and life - or is it antichrist? I think home schooling really needs to be clarified and honed in the eyes of the believer to what the issue really is. Its not only home schooling vs. public schooling, it should be Christian worldview education vs. antichristian education. Why not come right out and say so? (We need to) show why PubSchool is antichristian, which is a no brainer." Richard Wuehler
He's an engineer, so let me re-phrase that a little for us commoners. What he is saying is that christians should never willingly allow their children to receive anti-God or anti-Christ education. We would be wrong to do so. Not only because public school is wicked but because we are to be raising them with a Christian worldview; that all of our educating would be Christ centered; preparing them for the battle ahead. And, we as homeschoolers, should constantly re-evaluate what we are teaching our children at home - is it Christ centered or just a copy of public education at home? Also, we firmly believe that "sheltering" (guarding, protecting, watching over) our children until they are adults is the strong force behind every educational choice we make. This does not make them weak, rather when fed the food of God, makes them stronger than the enemy. Look at Daniel again. He wouldn't even eat from the king's table. Why? His parents taught him and he knew their teaching to be truth and he was taught to love His God over all else. None of the other King's servants could compare as they feasted on the food of the king. Our children will be weak and frail if we allow them to eat the food of this world. They will stumble and die. As you said, Gena - they will be poisoned. Even a little poison is still poison. We must teach them to eat the food of the true King of Kings AT HOME at our own tables and then they will be stronger than the world and able to overcome the lions they will face when they are adults. I hope that made sense.
Keep sounding forth the trumpet!

Oh how I agree. I have watched the kids in our homeschool group. They are such a delight. The teens play with the younger and pre teen kids. They don't think twice about is this "cool" or not. They just jump right in and play. They like their teen time just like the little kids like their sandbox time, but they when they come to together to play it is such a joy to watch. I would not have my son learning socialization any other way then in a homeschool setting. The kids learn how to relate to any one on any level and enjoy that relating. Who could ask more.
