The Perrys are part of a growing home-school movement. In 1999, according to federal statistics, there were 850,000 home-schooled children in the United States. In 2003, that number rose to 1.1 million. Some estimates put the figure today as high as 2.4 million.
"It's certainly on the rise, there's no doubt about it," said Brad Haines, executive director for the Missouri-based Families for Home Education. "Exactly how fast is up to speculation."
Before their four children were born, Kim and her husband, David, decided they were going to home-school them. They had the most common reasons for doing so: They wanted an alternative to the sometimes violent culture of American public schools, and they wanted to educate their children with a Bible-centered focus.
"People always ask me, 'Why do you want to stay home with your kids?'" Perry said. "I tell them, they're my kids. I want to have a...
I guess I'm going to have to take Neil's advice and look over my postings a little more closely. They're beginning to look like they were written in 17th century English!
I will put one question to parents who are thinking of sending their children to schools that have national Greek-letter social fraternities. I will then give what I think are three reasons why they have lasted for so long.
Why do street gangs last a long time? Why have these college equivalents lasted sometimes around a hundred years when most street gangs don't last anywhere near that long?
1. As the Wall Street Journal article pointed out sex, too often, non-consensual, underage, and brutal.
2. Drugs, either alcohol and other type of drugs are more easily channeled into these types of organizations.
3. Guaranteed good grades from compliant professors and teachers. These particular frat members could equate this with money when the graduate.
Many home schooling parents may know these facts about the secular universities. Good! You'll avoid sending your children to them. For those parents who haven't thought about the various problems of college life give it some consideration. College life is hard enough without being bothered by Aryan gangs.
Of course there are other bad things about some if not many these Aryan street gangs--they corrupt academia, by either having professors sympathetic to them by various types of bribes or perhaps blackmail?
I did not want to join one, but it took a lawyer with connections to let the some of the w**** professors I had to stop being subservient and to these gangs -- and especially to their alumni parents.
Ah, for you Nebraska types who want to home school look over this website,

Reading the article, I see the two state universities of Missouri and Illinois want to reach out to home-schooled children. How, are they going to control any harassment by the anti-Christian social fraternities that infest their campuses?
This is how Indian Hills Community Church helps college-age people,
