A LIBERAL “ARGUMENT” AGAINST HOME EDUCATION
It’s all about whose Truth gets taught:
But as to the home schooler subjected to beliefs that run counter to scientific inquiry and the principles in which knowledge is pursued and attained- I say send them to school and let the parents devote some of their off-hours to teaching what they feel their kids should know. One such scenario: kid comes home and tells her parent that “today our teacher said the universe is 14.5 billion years old, but we learned in Sunday School God created the world 6,500 years ago..”
Then, and only then, is the most appropriate time for the parent to get involved.
UPDATEL By and large, the commenters take him down.
