Every
home a school?
Of course! Parents are the first, the most effective, and the
most connected teachers of their children. Learning is a natural
part of family life.
Actually, there is no such thing as "home-school" any more
than there is "home-eat"
or
"home-sleep." Home is the default setting; leaving
home is the exception. Parents
cannot escape the responsibility
-- or the joy -- of teaching. Happy are the children
whose parents are purposeful in this duty, who make their home a
center of learning
for themselves and their children. These
parents may sometimes employ outside tutors
or classes; but always, the office is at home. And every
home is a school.
