The Immorality of Public Education

A critical examination of why compulsory public schooling is problematic and how homeschooling offers families a better path for their children's education.

The Core Problem

Compulsory public schooling forces children into a system that was designed for institutional efficiency, not individual flourishing. Students spend 13 years in age-segregated classrooms learning material at a pace determined by bureaucracy, not ability. Those who learn faster are held back; those who need more time are pushed forward unprepared. The system optimizes for compliance and standardization, not for curiosity, mastery, or genuine understanding.

The Alternative

Families deserve the right to educate their children according to their own values, priorities, and their child's individual needs. Homeschooling returns educational authority to parents - the people who know and care about their children most.
