Some great thoughts for homeschoolers.
Homeschooling in Action
The immediate case against compulsory school for adolescents is quite simply their barbarity: it is a triangle of hatred, humiliation and contempt.
- Frank Musgrove
Homeschooling in Action
The majority of parents feel affection for their children, and this sets limits to the harm they do them. But education authorities have no affection for the children concerned; at best, they are actuated by public spirit, which is directed towards the community as a whole, and not merely towards the children; at worst, they are politicians engaged in squabbles for plums
- Bertrand Russell

Try not to have a good time ... This is supposed to be educational.
