When I was about five, I developed an unfortunate habit of repeating the same word over and over again. I’d hear someone say “glowering” or “diesel” and the sound would appeal to me, so I’d say it to myself again and again as I went about my business. At the time, my business was playing in the yard and at my parent’s feet, so they got mighty tired of my little habit. One day, as I played near my mother’s rocker, I started to repeat the latest word to tickle my fancy: trollop.

More and more parents are exploring the benefits of home-schooling their children. The largest factor that contributes to my favorable consideration is home-schooling allows parents to take control over the moral and religious learning of the child. Parents have the flexibility to incorporate their beliefs and ideologies into the child’s curriculum. And there is no confusion in the child’s mind because there is no variation between what is being taught and what is being practiced. As a example, our older son had a project to research and work with our monthly budget. We worked through it with him and when his teacher reviewed it, she couldn’t believe that it was real. She thought our income and expenses were elevated and unrealistic! It came right off my spreadsheet that I use every month for budgeting. He didn’t know what to say.
