Charlotte Mason quotation: Volume 6, page 179 “Perhaps the gravest defect in school curricula is that they fail to give a comprehensive, intelligent and interesting introduction to history. To leave off or even to begin with the history of our own country is fatal. We can not live sanely unless we know that other peoples are as we are with a difference, that their history is as ours, with a difference, that they too have been represented by their poets and their artists, that they too have their literature and their national life. We have been asleep and our awaking is rather terrible.”

I believe in Homeschool for all. Where I live, I can get vegan cupcakes and bottomless fries in the same plaza.
Surely, we can tailor education to our own households. Should everyone homeschool? Nope?
But everyone that desires to homeschool should have access to the resources, to the encouragement, to make the journey possible...
