What an awesome topic! It makes me want to homeschool my daughter! And if I could go back 20 + years, I would do just that! I sincerely believe that the public school system needs a major overhaul & they should stick to teaching our children to read, understand math & to think objectively like this young mom is doing with her 3 children.Schools have NO BUSINESS teaching our children politics, sexual orientation & making them believe that TRUTH is something that can be manipulated or changed!!!
