10 Reasons School is Prison & 5 Ways to Break Free From Captive Thinking

Heather writes a great article on a subject dear to my heart...public schools are nothing more than camouflaged prisons. Today, however, the schools are much more blatant about their status with lock downs, legally drugging children into submission and the handcuffing of little children. I am so happy to see young moms like Heather take up the cause for homeschooling since I'm sort of out of the loop now that my children are 19 and 22 years old.

"3. Trust yourself. You must trust in yourself, before you can truly trust in your child."

This was probably the best advice I ever received as a new homeschooling mom over 22 years ago. I needed to learn to trust my myself to teach my own and trust that I knew what was best for my children and for my family as a whole. I needed to trust that what I saw in the public school was pure poison to children and families. I needed to trust my instincts telling me that sending a child into a public school was no less than a death sentence for that child!

Kudos to Heather for sharing her thoughts and discoveries! Be sure to visit Heather's blog to read her article in its entirety.

I love that you speak the truth! And yet, I am still afraid! I have been praying about taking my kids out of school and homeschooling them for a year now. I don't know why I am nervous! But I love your blog! I am excited to follow along! Thanks!
