Reader Max G. sends along a pair of links from Right Reason. I can't say I've done much reading in "philosophical conservatism," but over at RR they've got things to say about homeschooling. Graeme Hunter praises homeschooling parents for carrying the torch that could save civilization (again), while Roger Scruton believes homeschooling is one link in the chain of moving kids from public to private schools.
Steve Kellmeyer claims that homeschooling is not "a good fit for the modern family," but he's not damning homeschooling - he's damning society for making the modern family sterile and ignorant.
The battle for state regulation of homeshooled education goes on, with Utah passing a bill that gives parents more control over, and privacy about, what they teach.
Are you a homeschooling parent tired of hearing the accusation that your kids can't possibly be "well-socialized"? Finally, some research to back you up.
