I'd like to invite you to the Carnival of Homeschooling!

You're invited to come to a blog carnival! It's the 115th Carnival of Homeschooling, and for it, I've gathered 45 posts that I think you'll enjoy. You'll find a brief introduction and a link to each post at http://www.janice-campbell.com/2008/03/18/115th-carnival-of-homeschooling-oh-the-things-that-youll-do/ Blog carnivals introduce readers to new blogs they may enjoy. If you like reading my blog, perhaps you'll enjoy some of the blogs I like, as well. As I've received posts from participants, I've had the chance to meet new bloggers I'll definitely add to my feed reader. The carnival theme is adapted from Dr. Seuss’s beloved Oh, The Places You’ll Go! Homeschoolers do a lot of interesting things. Since one of the things we do particularly well is read, so you'll also find posts that develop the theme that “The more that you read, the more things you will know. The more that you learn, the more places you’ll go.” (I Can Read With My Eyes Shut, Dr. Seuss). So please stop by to visit, and enjoy the carnival! Blessings, Janice Campbell http://www.Janice-Campbell.com - Taking Time for Things that Matter http://www.Everyday-Education.com - Homeschooling Through High School and Teaching Language Arts the Easy Way audio packages are on sale at $9.95! |

"Where are you?" inquired a recent e-mail. One of my feed subscribers had missed the note about my blog move, and was wondering where all my posts had gone. So this is a reminder that I'm posting regularly at my permanent blog, www.Janice-Campbell.com-- Taking Time For Things That Matter. You'll find plenty of posts and comments to read on literature, homeschooling, and 'taking time for things that matter.' One of my recent posts, "Socialization... Again" was included the 82nd Carnival of Homeschooling, where you'll also find many other terrific articles and resources. Tami of Discount Homeschool Supplies, the host, chose a very pretty state flower theme for the carnival. Thanks, Tami, for hosting! I'll see you at the new blog! |

German Homeschooler Taken From Family
Posted in Homeschooling high school

Have you been following the news of the German girl, Melissa Busekros who was removed from her family and placed in a psychiatric institution for "school phobia"? The HSLDA e-newsletter reports that calls, e-mails, and letters to the German embassy and the Bavarian Minister of Justice may help to free the young lady. You may read the whole story here: http://www.hslda.org/elink.asp?id=3731 If you wish to register a strong protest with the German ambassador or the Minister of Justice, here is the contact information, courtesy of HSLDA: Dr. Klaus Scharioth Ambassador German Embassy 4645 Reservoir Road NW Washington, DC, 20007-1998 (202) 298-4000 The embassy can be emailed from its website: http://www.hslda.org/elink.asp?id=3732 Minister of Justice in Bavaria: Beate Merk Prielmayerstr. 7 80335 Munchen Tel. +49 89 5597 1799 Fax +49 89 5597 3580 Email: beate.merk@stmj.bayern.de Germany has a history of hostility toward homeschoolers, but if many voices around the world are raised in protest of this dreadful event, they may be willing to reconsider. And finally, can there be anything more effective than prayer? Just think if she were your own dear daughter... |
