Thanks for the good feedback. The last commentor raised an interesting point about learning (or rather unlearning) moral values in the public school system. In a day when absolute standards are not honored in any area of the public square, when moral licensiousness is elevated among youths and adults alike as an inalienable right, it should come as no surprise that our public school children possess broken moral compasses.

It is their responsibility to keep the prevailing false worldviews of culture from infiltrating the home. (I wrote about this dynamci in my book "Culture Makers.") It is for this reason that homeschooling is, to me, the optimal way to protect my children's innocence while building resilient values into their souls. Like a seedling in a greenhouse, we nurture them through the morally formative years until their roots are strong enough...
