Homeschooling Online - The Proof Of Good Citizenship And Liberty
A general State education is a mere contrivance for moulding people to be exactly like one another: and as the mould in which it casts them is that which pleases the predominant power in the government, whether this be a monarch, a priesthood, an aristocracy, or the majority of the existing generation in proportion as it is efficient and successful, it establishes a despotism over the mind, leading by a natural tendency to one over the body. John Stuart Mill, On Liberty.
You can’t get any better testimony than one of the best philosophers in history. Americans have always valued history above everything else. That’s why one of the best expressions of freedom is to homeschool your children. Public schools stifle creativity and intellectual growth. Homeschools encourage learning in an emotionally safe and nurturing environment. That alone is freeing enough. And children who are taught the high notion of civics from someone who cares will grow into the best citizens. Logic proves it, experience proves it, and now history is proving it too.
