Homeschooling thought of the day 

This goes into the files of "we are still making this decision and every piece of information matters"

Nazi girls spread hate - I noticed they QUICKLY mentioned homeschooling in the article. Of course, we all know the rise of homeschooling in this country is to blame for all of the ills we see in this country today ... NOT.

I am not as much worried about how to deal with the criticism of homeschooling on this front as dealing with the very real problem of the minority of homeschooling parents that shouldn't be teaching their kids. Is there anything we can do as parents concerned for these kids OR is this the price we pay for the freedom to raise our children as we feel is best?

My wife and I have not formally homeschooled day one and the vast majority of the parents we meet are up to the task. That said, there are a few familes whose kids we wonder about. Do you pray? (of course you do) ... Do you say something? Do you encourage the passing of laws to require certain standards from homeschooling parents AGAINST the voices of many within the homeschooling movement calling for as much freedom as possible?

These are tough questions and homeschoolers need real answers to silence the legitimate concerns of critics. A unified blanket of leave us alone only feeds the fire raging in the minds of the majority of Americans who find already homeschooling "creepy".
