One of the craziest things about homeschooling is realizing how much of the school day is fake.
I was a classroom teacher for 20 years.
99% of the time in the classroom is spent correcting kids, waiting for the class to calm down, and giving procedures.
And then when they finally get to the work, it's is busy work and test prep.
None of it is real education.
Your kid can learn more in two focused hours at home than he learns in seven hours inside the government school machine.
And then he gets his childhood back.
That’s the part nobody tells you.

"My children are homeschooled."
"Aren't you worried that they won't be socialized?!"
This is a really, really stupid objection, and a backwards one to boot.
Flip the question. What type of socialization do kids typically get in government schools?
- widespread bullying
- drugs and alcohol abuse
- disrespect
- sexual promiscuity
- vulgarity and lewdness
- violence
- theft
- rebelliousness
- cliques and outcasts
- conformity
- authoritarianism
- mediocrity
- boredom
- indoctrination
In our various homeschool groups, these things are all effectively non-existent.
They're being socialized in positive ways, developing curiosity, servant leadership, peer support, passion-driven learning, good character, etc
High school is the best time to homeschool.
Not because it's easy, but because it's the last few years that parents have to impact their child before adulthood. It's when you should have more time with your teen, more conversations, and more discipleship. This is your opportunity to cement their ability to think critically, to understand logic, and to shape their worldview.
Practically, it's the time to teach them how to navigate adulthood: finances, household management, careers, relationships, the internet, marriage, and parenthood.
If you think this is the job of public education, you'll be in for shock and disappointment. It's always been your responsibility, and it's well worth making it your priority.
This is what our first graders used to read in our one-room schoolhouses (the dominant form of education) 100 years ago. We accomplished a 94% literacy rate with this method.
Now with huge fancy schools, million dollar literacy ed-tech, tons of funding? 28% of adults have low functional literacy - meaning they can't read well enough to complete even the most basic daily tasks.
Why did we have to reinvent the wheel when what we had was working so well?

🚨 BREAKING: Colorado public schools just LOST 10,000 students in ONE YEAR—and the insiders are jumping ship first!
A former teacher drops the truth bomb: Even educators who spent years IN the system are now homeschooling their own kids instead of sending them back to failing public schools.
She says: "My entire group of former teachers pulled our children out. We saw it from the inside... and said NO MORE."
The public school system is collapsing under indoctrination, poor performance, and lost trust. Parents are voting with their feet—straight to homeschooling, private schools, or charters.
Time to act: Pull your kids out NOW. Protect their future. Homeschool, go private, choose charters—whatever it takes.
Who's with me? Drop a 🔥 if you're done with the broken system. Share if you want to wake up more parents!

New interview with Thomas Sowell just dropped, focused exclusively on education, and it is🔥🔥🔥
Schools have become "propaganda agencies more so than education institutions."
Unfortunately, there are no incentivizes for them to self-correct

Stop treating your wife like she’s a man.
Her brain, body and nervous system aren’t built like yours.
If you treat her like a smaller, weaker man, you’ll slowly crush the woman you love.
3 reminders every husband needs👇
1️⃣ HER BODY & NERVOUS SYSTEM ARE DIFFERENT
Your wife is not “dramatic” because she’s tired, touched-out or overwhelmed.
– She generally needs more sleep than you
– Chronic stress hits her hormones harder
– Noise, mess, conflict and constant demands spike her anxiety
When you shrug that off and say “I’m tired too,” she doesn’t feel understood.
When you guard her sleep, take over with the kids, and make home calmer and more predictable…
her body finally feels safe.
Safety first. Desire, playfulness, affection come after.
2️⃣ HER MIND CARRIES INVISIBLE WEIGHT
Most wives aren’t drowning in chores.
They’re drowning in responsibility.
– Appointments, meals, gifts, school stuff
– Who needs new shoes, who’s falling behind
– Everyone’s emotions, including yours
If your default is “Just tell me what to do,” she still has to manage everything in her head.
Honouring her looks like:
– Owning whole areas (bedtime, mornings, admin)
– Not waiting to be asked
– Not getting defensive when she’s fried
When she feels you see the mental load and shoulder it without being asked 5 times, her nervous system finally gets to stand down.
3️⃣ HER HEART NEEDS PURSUIT & REASSURANCE
Men often think: “I provide, I don’t cheat, what’s the problem?”
But she also needs:
– Warm, present listening (not cross-examining)
– Affection that isn’t always a prelude to sex
– To see from your commitment that you choose her, especially on the hard days
She doesn’t want perfection.
She wants to feel like your cherished wife, not your employee, roommate or therapist.
When you:
– Apologise first more often
– Plan time together
– Speak to her with tenderness and respect
...you become easier to trust, easier to relax around, and easier to desire.
Men: this isn’t about becoming “less masculine.”
It’s about becoming more accurately masculine for a woman, not for a man.
Let me tell you about homeschooling preschoolers and early elementary aged kids, especially after you’ve calmed down after your first child and no longer try to replicate the public school system that you grew up in.
You are cuddled up in various places…the dining table with not an inch between you, the living room couch, blankets on your laps, the picnic table outside where you’ve gone to get some vitamin D.
Day by day, you stare into the eyes of your beloved child as they unlock the magic of reading. One letter at a time, one precious student on whom to focus.
Thirtyish minutes after you open your book for the day, they are finished with “school”, and your little love is allowed to play in the dirt, explore your home, hear books read aloud, and be in on what it takes to run a household. The sounds and smells of home are their schoolyard.
You would have to pry this lifestyle out of my cold, dead hands.
@JoelEveretMusic@creation247 Dual enrollment and tailor classes they will need to things that will help with what they're pursuing. There's even pre-med homeschool science curriculums out there.
Can a family live on one income today?
Yes, but not today’s lifestyle on yesterday’s budget.
Here’s what it actually looks like:
• 1,000 sq ft home, not 2,500
• One used car
• One family phone — no smartphones for kids
• One TV, no subscriptions
• No microwave, no central A/C
• Home-cooked meals, no dining out
• No childcare, 1 parent stays home
• Public schools only
• Local sports, not travel leagues
• Basic health insurance: pay dental & extras out of pocket
• Simple clothes, thrift store toys
• Rare vacations, little debt
That’s how most families lived for decades and they raised kids, built communities, and made it work.
The issue isn’t that you can’t raise a family on one income.
The issue is that we’ve inflated “middle class” to mean upper middle luxuries: two cars, two iPhones, dining out, Amazon Prime, orthodontics, soccer trips, Disneyland, and a home office with Wi-Fi.
In 1960, one income worked because expectations were lower, families were more self-reliant, and debt wasn’t a lifestyle.
You want one income? You can do it.
But you have to live like the people who actually did it.
Not poorer, just simpler and more deliberate.
The people of the past didn’t have a choice, but you do.
Parents: good ratings, awards, etc are not what you should be looking for when vetting a school
Meaningless distractions
Ask about books being read, time spent in recess, homework load, attitude toward student needs, openness to customization — the stuff that actually affects the child
American father of 3 is considering cancelling his family’s health insurance even through it “feels very irresponsible.” He just can’t afford it anymore
He pays
-$1,500 a month in premiums
- Each person in his family has a $6,000 deductible
So he would have to spend “$30,000 in co-pays that we have to pay on top of the $18,000 in monthly charges to actually get coverage.”
