OldNeocon,
Big advocate of home schooling. My oldest graduated from public school, went to an elite University, cast off our values and campaigned for Obama. The other three kids have been and in last case are homeschooled. They are all well rounded, with a Christian mindset,confident and not politically correct sheep.
Most areas have people to network with in home school co-op teaching. My second son read all of Shakespeare’s works in High School. (How did he live without Toni Morrison and “Heather has two Mommies”?)
Many rich educational opportunities are available in a home school setting.
Different states have different rules for home schooling. When Obama gets done driving a stake in the heart of the economy ,the pro life movement, the military and the health care system; I’m sure he, the NEA and Comrade Ayers will come after home schooling.
