Kurtis Posted September 16, 2015 Posted September 16, 2015 Came across this guy (Jeff Till) on a School Sucks podcast... He has an amazingly concise and wonderful case for keeping children out of government school, in the form of 54 arguments. It is probably the best source I've found as an introductory offer to people unaware of the importance of keeping children out of these destructive institutions. The page below has links for streaming the 1 hour audio presentation, an audio download link, and a downloadable and printable PDF version: http://fivehundredyears.org/a-complete-case-for-home-education-54-arguments/ Spread the good word! 3
Koroviev Posted September 16, 2015 Posted September 16, 2015 Fantastic link! I haven't quite gotten all the way through it so I don't know if he touches on this, but from personal experience with my wife being a teaching student there are A LOT of really crappy teachers out there. I wouldn't want any of her classmates teaching our kids, most of the teachers in the schools she's worked at openly hate kids, and even the "good" teachers don't really ever seem to think about what or how they are teaching.
brucethecollie Posted September 23, 2015 Posted September 23, 2015 Yes, yes, yes! People are always asking me why I don't send my kids to school. I don't have all day to explain myself so I will forward them this from now on. Thanks for sharing!
