Come out, come out, wherever you are! No, really, please, please, please, come out. I need you, we need each other.
Coming from yet another homeschooling meeting has left me frustrated to say the least. Why is it that most of the Christian groups I find are all ultra-mega structured? Why do I feel like I need to wear a business suit, pin up my hair, toss my contacts for my glasses and put on my best English accent when I attend one of these meetings? Why would anyone take their kids out of school only to replicate the whole thing at home? Why is there so much out there for every other kind of homeschooler except us? Why are so many of us in hiding? Who and/or what are we hiding from? Are we not kids of the Most High? Why are we ashamed to just be ourselves whether others like it or not? Don’t we allow others to be who they choose to be? Why not allow ourselves the same right to just be? Why is school still in existence? Haven’t they shown us year after year that they don’t know what they’re doing with our kids? Why do so many think to educate means to dump info into a person? I mean really, if we’re all special and unique why is it that we are to learn things all at the same time and be labeled if we can’t keep up? When is the individual’s unique abilities addressed? When does the real education -drawing out (the genius within) occur?
