POINT/COUNTERPOINT
A home educator wrote:
I have to support Shay and Beth in this opinion. The more I listen/read, the more it seems as if families are ranging themselves in an “us against them” war with DNPE… which imho isn’t going to demonstrate the right values to the children involved.
To which I responded:
And what “bad” values would those be? That the State is not your friend? That you have to zealously guard your freedoms lest they be lost? That the government works for us and not the other way around? Why, those are the very values my wife and I try to TEACH our kids!
I guess we have very different ideas of liberty.
This is one of the conservative/Christian homeschooling listservs. Amazingly, I haven’t been kicked off. So far.
