The Laughing Wolf

I've also had some good conversations with Mrs. du Toit (http://www.mrsdutoit.com/pmach/comments.php?id=669_0_1_0_M) regarding homeschooling. She blogs on the subject quite often, and we've discussed the shortcomings of the Californicated system to which I am subjected. She had a good post which I provided in the link above.

She generally posts some very good items.

PS Am I missing something, or are the other 4500 hits not commenting, those rude souls.

PPS I tried to provide the Mrs' site as a link, and your preview ate the code and failed to display the link. Are you using Movable Type? I can give links on Rachel Lucas', Bill Whittle's, and even Misha's site, but not here.

*G* Yep, it appears most of them don't leave comments. Find it hard to believe that either that many of them agree with me or that I am that "right." We did have some comments going on one post, despite a troll, but that seems never to have gone over to other posts. I can but hope.

Link seems to work fine for me, anyone else have a problem?

Although my stance on personal freedoms includes the right to school your children outside of the public run system, I have seen many children who were socially hampered by not having sufficient interaction with peers during maturity. I advocate that parents sent their children to the public schools, and then give them the quality help they need at home to excel. Most of the parents I know who currently home school their children do so more because their children have disciplinary problems than that they were receiving an inadequate education. But I also judged a mock court competition where most of the finalists came from a college that was formed from a group that had all home schooled their children. In my humble opinion, the cream rises to the top despite any circumstances: home schooling, public schooling, or private schooling. Financial support assists more than anything else you can provide your children.
