Why we homeschool
posted Friday, March 2, 2007 :: 3:26 PM
In case you were wondering what happened to why we homeschool news, it didn't go anywhere. I just got so sick of posting the same news story every day: teachers violating the innocence of our children. Only the names of the teachers and the school districts change. This crime is still happening daily; the news outlet which reports on it most consistently is World Net Daily. I am still on the lookout for more articles on the factors which drove my husband and I to consider homeschooling twenty years ago when my oldest was getting ready for kindergarten. I never thought I would say it, but today's adult predators in positions of trust and authority over our nation's children makes one long for the good old days of poor academic achievement and the crazy new new math, doesn't it?

Things like this happen every day, and it is very depreesing to read the stories all of the time. It must be hard posting them on a daily basis as well. I still hold out hope for a better tomorrow.
Visit with Christine Miller awhile and let's share our thoughts on homeschooling, education, and life.

christine's reading
I am researching the holy days which were instituted by God as a celebration of the Messiah, instead of celebrating the holy days which were instituted by man to honor nature in place of nature's God.
