Tom Hunsberger, who has taught special education in Maryland public schools for twenty years, told me that it was humanly impossible for him to meet the educational needs of the forty child caseload that he has. This is what I hear over and over again from good teachers who work in special education. They do not have the time or staff to meet the varied needs of the special-needs children. Parents know their children better than anyone. Parents can teach Biblical principles daily and implement them into the learning process.
Parents can build a close relationship with their children so that they respect parental authority.
Ellis could see that when he was in school fifty years ago, they were encouraging the children to question their parents authority. The only way a parent is going to know what their child is taught, is to do the teaching. With home education you can adapt the amount and speed to the needs and health of your child. Home education allows time to teach life skills along with academics. There is time for apprenticeships etc.
