Why Homeschool?

Benefits

Flexibility

Whether it's time, vacation, curriculum, or whatever, homeschooling offers a family the ability to make choices that are best for them.

Build Community

Homeschooling can bring families together with other like-minded families to share ideas, resources, and counsel. Homeschool co-ops are a great resource for meeting other homeschool families. When you homeschool and make an effort to find other homeschoolers, you'll find a valuable new circle of friends who, bringing their unique skill sets, are ready to help you succeed.

Learn New Skills

Taking Responsibility

Taking Responsibility for training/educating your children is part of loving your neighbor. The responsibility is yours...take it by the horns! When you rely on the State for your children's education, you're actually coveting/stealing from your neighbor through the agency of a government that is willing to use violence. If you doubt this, try not paying property taxes and see what happens.

Learn What You Didn't Learn The First Time

Customize the Learning Experience for YOUR Child

Education doesn't have to be one size fits all

Limit Indoctrination by the State

When YOU train YOUR children, you're not competing with the world as much as you are for their hearts and minds. If your children are spending 6 - 8 hours a day soaking up other peoples worldview, at some point you're going to have a problem.

History

Tom Woods' Liberty Classroom

Consider podcasts on the subject...

The Dangerous History Podcast - History with an anarchist point-of-view - HIGHLY RECOMMENDED

Hardcore History - Dan Carlin is considered THE superstar of history podcasts.

History on Fire - I don't like his accent, but he's still better than any history teacher I ever had.

Martyr Made provides amazing detail about the history of Palestine starting in the early 1900s through the establishment of modern Israel. Totally altered my perception.

Maritime History - World history from the perspective of boats.

The History of Rome - Mike Duncan is the preeminent podcaster on Roman history.

Our Fake History discusses common lies and myths of history.

Books/audiobooks also offer possibilities

MY FAVORITE: Steve Berry is a former lawyer who digs out tons of interesting, forgotten, alternative historical details in his Cotton Malone series

Clive Cussler always weaves intriguing historical events throughout his novels. His protagonists always seem to have high moral codes.

Saxon Tales series by Bernard Cornwell chronicles the epic saga of the making of England.

Pillars of the Earth centers around the building of a cathedral in England during the early Middle Ages. This books starts the hardships and triumphs of several families. Later books follow later generations of those same families as the community around the cathedral develops.

Logic

Astronomy - Electric Universe Theory uses demonstrable experiments to overturn mainstream theory that depends upon fantasies like black holes and dark matter to fill the gaps in pure mathematical that have no foundation in reality. As this new understanding of the universe develops, it will completely transform our understanding of things like mythology, biology, geology, medicine, and more. These two interviews provide a good overview...

History - Video - Electricity can cause instantaneous fossilization

Mythology - Video - Symbols of an Alien Sky provides new, concrete foundations

Various Methods Overview

Methods

Excellent overview of various methods & styles of homeschooling w/ links to a few companies that support each.(There are hundreds more in each category though!). We did pretty straight classical for our first 5-6 years but have transitioned to eclectic & self taught as our children entered high school. Our pre-ks are getting more Charlotte Mason & Montessori right now & will probably stay there awhile.

Homeschooling on a Shoestring Budget

Just like the name says, homeschooling on a shoestring! No or low cost ways to educate your children at home....this link is actually more of the above as far as methods but the site has a lot more to explore...more below on free or low cost curriculum

Thomas Jefferson Education is an educational philosophy and a methodology by which great individuals throughout history were educated. Our family has successfully incorporated this philosophy into our homeschool. We started with the book, A Thomas Jefferson Education, and the articles on the TJed.org website.

Books for Children

In this video Libertarian author Connor Boyack explains how homeschooling his own kids helped him discover the need for children's books that embrace the liberty/anarchist worldview. His Tuttle Twins series has started with children's versions of Bastiat's, The Law, and Freidman's explanation of the free market through the creation of a pencil.

Also recommended

Cubs to Bears Series

Three Friends Free, shows how we all use voluntary interactions in our every day lives and what happens when violence is introduced.

The Adventures of Jonathan Gullible by Ken Schoolland. It's probably more suitable for early teens. The newest edition is even designed with questions at the end of chapters.

The Uncle Eric Book Series which includes the popular economics lessons Whatever Happened to Penny Candy? and The Money Mystery: The Hidden Force Affecting Your Career, Business, and Investments
