The authority of those who teach is often an obstacle to those who want to learn.

             -Cicero (Quoted by Montaigne)

Home educated children:
  • spend so much of their time out in the real world
  • able to communicate well with both adults and children
  • have friends of all ages
  • spend time with others that they enjoy or have a similar interest - just like adults.


“Jeffrey Mirel, an education professor at the University of Michigan, said studies have shown that most home-schoolers, for example, participate in outside-classroom activities with other children and don't develop social problems.”

It is the duty of a citizen in a free country not to fit into society, but to make society.
