Homeschooling has become an increasingly popular option in the United States and is particularly appealing to fundamentalist Christian parents.  By 1992, homeschooling was recognized as a legal option in every state. 

A stellar panel of guests will share their insights on the good and nasty aspects of the Christian homeschooling movement.  Due to space limitations here, we cannot post their entire (and impressive) resumes, so please visit GodDiscussion.net to learn more.  Our special co-host this evening is VYCKIE GARRISON, founder of No Longer Quivering. Guests include:

  • Ryan Stollar – Extraordinary Debater and Co-Founder of Homeschoolers Anonymous.
  • Kathryn Brightbill – Law School Student – Youngest Republican Precinct Committeewoman.
  • Nicholas Ducote, Author and Co-Founder & Community Coordinator at Homeschoolers Anonymous.
  • Sarah Jones – Journalist and Activist.
  • Heather Doney – Quiverfull Daughter & Social Justice Advocate.
  • Julie Anne Smith – Homeschooling parent and advocate for victims of spiritual abuse.

 

Among other things, we’ll discuss themes common to Christian homeschooling, such as patriarchy, revisionist history, creation “science,” the hidden life of LGBTs, and much more.  We’ll also hear about Homeschoolers Anonymous’ work in stopping child abuse taking place in homeschools.
