Like with any choice in life, there is always the good and the bad. Not all are going to be appealing to you. <BR/><BR/>Even so, only you can make the call on what is right for your family.

To say, as he seems to, that parents are the only ones who should teach their children the faith is not supported by Scripture. Jesus explicitly tells His disciples in Matthew 28:19,20 to "Go...baptize...AND teach... everything I have Unashamedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09345811007444142398noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7670999577068514764.post-33512287417733272502007-04-09T13:37:00.000-04:002007-04-09T13:37:00.000-04:00that last paragraph should say ..."I hope you are ...that last paragraph should say ..."I hope you are NOT thinking I'm making judgments!"

I was trying very carefully to put Sproul's words in quotes. And to leave my feelings out of it as much as possible.<BR/><BR/>Where we stand now, we're uncomfortable with our public school choices (despite living in a "Top 50" district in Michigan) and we can't afford a private school. My hope was that I could do homeschooling more Beth/Mom2TwoVikingshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00093286971978819404noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7670999577068514764.post-16875909610262838772007-04-09T13:12:00.000-04:002007-04-09T13:12:00.000-04:00Hmm.

I have no objection against homeschooling, in fact I have nothing but the utmost admiration for those parents who take on this awesome responsibility. But I do object to the notion that homeschooling should be the only option that a Christian can consider. That seems to be what Sproul is advocating here and quite frankly that's legalism. <BR/><BR/>We chose to send our kids to a private Unashamedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09345811007444142398noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7670999577068514764.post-13189003005080748742007-04-09T11:51:00.000-04:002007-04-09T11:51:00.000-04:00Beth- WOW!

Our choices are between public school, a private Christian school, a private academically acclaimed school and a small private school run by a local college. Homeschooling does not seem to be as much of an option for us because we have some great alternative options.
