Nicki Truesdell with Deb Filman on The Reason We Learn: Understanding School Choice

Podcasts, School Choice

I had a great discussion on school choice and homeschooling with Deb Filman on her show The Reason We Learn. We could have talked for hours, but we kept it at 90 minutes. Listen and share, because this is a vital topic to understand.

I believe school choice is a trojan horse that will allow government control (whether new or increased) into private home education. Learn the dangers, and look for other ways to fix what’s wrong with the system.

(I apologize, but I was just getting over a cold in this recording, and I certainly sound like it!)

You can also read my posts on why school vouchers for homeschooling are not conservative and understanding school choice.

Deb Filman has a passion for kids, education, and homeschooling. Check out her other show “Success Without School” on her YouTube channel, and follow her on Twitter.

I have two very different sons. One has been an extrovert since he could talk. The other has been an introvert for just as long. The thing about home education is that it doesn’t have to happen at home. What it really means is “not public school.” Not stuck in a classroom all day. Not confined to a government calendar. Not a slave to the system. 23 years ago I helped my aunt Kari start a homeschool co-op. At that time, I had one child and she was three years old. If you have a child that struggles to read, read to them. Read aloud every day. That’s the best advice I can give. New year. New house. FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTION: How do I homeschool with babies and toddlers in the mix?? Don’t let people tell you that “you can’t shelter your children.” Yes, you can. And you absolutely should. Mothers have a crucial role to play in society, although their job doesn’t always feel very “crucial.” Wiping baby faces, repeating instructions, settling squabbles, and making food is repetitive and doesn’t always seem important. For 2023, I’ll be preaching the same ol’ message that I can’t stop saying: “education is discipleship,” and “you can do it” homeschooling encouragement. Not gonna make the message easier to swallow when the world is attacking children on a grander scale every day. I’m also not going to tell you that homeschooling is a breeze, but I will keep saying that it’s worth every minute.
