The issue is one that needs attention. For there is no doubt that tensions easily arise between the two groups. We will begin by examining Deut. The first thing we notice is that parents in Israel are commanded to take in hand the godly nurturing of their children. Moreover, this command appears to come first to the parents , not to some other institution, nor to any body of teachers.
Christian education starts in the home.
In the home, the believing parent is basically commanded to surround and permeate. The child's environment is to be saturated with God's Word. In other words, the teaching is to make an impression - it is to be made to stick. The Word of God is to be written on the doorposts of every Israelite house, symbolising that they are entirely under the authority of that Word in the sphere of the family. Up to this point, the argument seems to go all in favour of home schooling.
