Homeschooling in Action
For all of the virtues required in the art of childrearing, none is more important - and none rarer - than patience, in parents, in family, in friends; patience to allow the miracle of human development to unfold according to its own internal laws, from birth through infancy and childhood and youth, and even till the moment of death.
- Daniel Greenberg, in "Child Rearing"
Homeschooling in Action
Thou hast most traitorously corrupted the youth of the realm in erecting a grammarschool; and whereas, before, our forefathers had no other books than the score and the tally, thou hast caused printing to be used; and contrary to the king, his crown, and dignity, thou has built a paper-mill.
-William Shakespeare, in King Henry IV
Homeschooling in Action
Nothing enrages me more than when people criticize my criticism of school by telling me that schools are not just places to learn maths and spelling, they are places where children learn a vaguely defined thing called socialization. I know. I think schools generally do an effective and terribly damaging job of teaching children to be infantile, dependent, intellectually dishonest, passive and disrespectful to their own developmental capacities.
-Seymour Papert,
