Now I know. If your daughter ever needed a reason to homeschool her children, this is it. Like you, my kids are grown, went to the public schools, graduated in '92 and '95. I think WL was started in '91. My son is a Major in the AF in Korea with is wife and 3 little ones. They are home schooling also...just starting out...for the same reasons. I hear that Congress is in process of figuring out ways to abolish or severely "punish" home schoolers. Look out for that. My daughter is also conservative, not married yet. Her job at BOFA has been slashed and she is scrambling to find a job right now. Obviously her job was slashed thanks to the Socialist policies of Carter and Clinton, Frank, Dodd, and the rest. <BR/>God bless you and your family...maybe you and I can keep getting the word out and make a difference. I feel compelled to at least try to save some semblance of what is left of our country for our kids. We were lucky we escaped this insanity when our kids were in school..but now an entire generation of American public school children have been indoctrinated into this Socialist mindset. What a tragedy.Cheryl Passhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01894307477506374497noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6215147935611201277.post-12876831639223363562009-02-10T22:09:00.000-08:002009-02-10T22:09:00.000-08:00Girl, I'm learning a lot from you.

Whole language sprang it's ugly head after that, right? I sent them to public school for all those years and never knew or questioned that they were being 'assimilated' into socialism. My daughter, the oldest, finished high school in 1987 and afterwards went to a 2 year community college...she is a conservative at age 38 and homeschools her children....Thank God. My son finished HS in 1992, married his high school sweetheart. They have always been very liberal (indoctrinated)..until their one child started school and they became active as parents 'battling' teachers and administrators . 2008, they were big supporters of Ron Paul. Maybe there's hope for them yet! Thanks for another great posting!brenflaghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08538356181242233471noreply@blogger.com
