Children learn best from parents. Why? Because parents are the best models for children. They observed, followed and imitated the actions of parents. Besides, the care and love of parents for their children are unconditional. The teaching and imparting of experiences are not for monetary motives but genuinely for the love of their children. As such, there is movement of courageous parents who removed their children from the formal system of schooling because they have lost faith in the formal schooling system. We have heard of stories of drugs abuse in schools. We have heard of bullying, extortions and freedom of sex in schools. When met with complaints from parents, the school authorities said they could not do anything in the name of human rights of individuals and freedom of expressions. Where is the moral of teaching of right behavior and habits?
Some religions institutions such as The Southern Baptist Academy have their own Homeschool program. They understood the needs of parents who undertook homeschooling. Their outlook is that of a partner with the parents in the facilitating of homeschooling. And the beautiful part is that they are able to assist families with disadvantated or disabled children on an individual attention basis. This is something that is not available in the mainstream of public schooling. The Southern Baptist Academy Homeschool offers a cutting-edge online homeschool program using the latest software and teaching technology to ensure that your child will find the learning interesting and fun. Your homeschooling child will develop a life-long appreciation for learning, not just memorizing facts but a wholesome integrated system of faith in God, in his own gifts and in giving his service to the world for a better society. This is so much different from the commercial teaching in schools of unselfish competition, differentiations between people and in the greed of getting more money for himself only.
