Homeschool Dialogues shares the truth about public schools
The impact that public schools are having is detrimental to our children, families and country. Dr. Bruce Shortt, Bradley Heath, Joel Turtel, and John Taylor Gatto give us a background into understanding the history of public education in the U.S. that will open our eyes to the truth and give us understanding to what is happening in those schools today.
Bruce Shortt's belief that understanding The Harsh Truth About Public Schools will cure homeschool families of burn-out in a hurry is well-taken. After giving public education a shot with some of my children last year I learned that many of my beliefs and concerns were not only totally founded, but things are much WORSE than I had originally thought, and that was just elementary school. I cannot even imagine how much worse middle school and high school would be.
In the interview with David Kupelian about Desensitization, not only did I learn that we as a nation have been lied to and duped, but that industry and politics as a whole has knowingly and laughingly planned to keep Americans in ignorance.

Schools work exactly as they were designed to work.
They produce a population divided against itself...
~ John Taylor Gatto
|

The foundational principles and presuppositions of public schooling have always been non-Christian.
~ Bradley Heath
Knowledge and understanding of how we're being manipulated and marketed to is the key.
~ David Kupelian
This ebook starts out strong with a one-two punch with its wonderful interviews of John Taylor Gatto and David Kupelian. It really gives a pulse to the public school system and the marketing monster that lurks around every corner of our lives and how integrated these two forces are in our everyday thinking and decision making. Each interview makes you stop and wonder about the institutions that rule our lives and how far-reaching they really are.

In order for homeschooling to be a success we have to reach our children. Dr. Raymond Moore, Harvey and Laurie Bluedorn, Teri Maxwell, and Karen Andreola are homeschool pioneers and leaders who discuss the types of homeschooling found to foster a love of learning.
Homeschool Dialogues understands what home education is all about
Homeschool Dialogues is a good combination of inspiration and information. I wanted to grab a cup of tea, breathe and find refreshment when I read Lisa Whelchel's quote: "Make time for yourself. Whether it is a quick cup of coffee with a friend, morning quiet time with the Lord, or a date with hubby, you must be able to receive in order to keep giving."
- Maggi Beardsley |

So much of a peaceful home revolves around Mom's spirit. When Mom has a meek and quiet spirit, the atmosphere of the home seems to follow suit.
~ Teri Maxwell
The book also offers perspectives on how different home education looks in each individual family. From the funny and outspoken Lisa Whelchel, to the quietness of Teri Maxwell, we see two different homeschool mothers who have approached the task quite differently, yet both with successful outcomes and testimonies to the benefits of home education. From practical to methodical, there is a sense of both in these essays. You will find something to fit your fancy and your style in this book.

If we give our children regular opportunities to get in touch with God's creation, a habit is formed which will be a source of delight throughout their lives.
~ Karen Andreola
|

Relax! You're ultimately going to teach your child more in thirty good minutes at home than all day in school, so don't stress yourself.
~ Lisa Whelchel
…in Terri Maxwell's interview about, "Homeschooling with a quiet and gentle spirit," she identifies the feeling of anger and depression that homeschool mothers might face. Terri Maxwell has authored many books on organizing your home. However, the focus of this interview was to help a homeschool mother to overcome worry, fear, and depression.
- Karen Flores |

Homeschooling never ends; it just matures.
Homeschoolers never die; they just pass on to higher learning levels.
~ Harvey and Laurie Bluedorn
Homeschool Dialogues inspired me.
Over the course of meeting experienced people (and vegetables) in a series of interviews, I gleaned tips and techniques I can use to make my children's lives more interesting, more well-rounded, and definitely MORE FUN.

Homeschool Dialogues is A masterpiece of information
Parents don't have a lot of time to research every new idea. This book brings top homschool leaders to you in one handy resource.
Not only do the articles give good information, but there are plenty of references for one to research further. This book is small in length yet large in heart, and a good addition to every homeschooler's library.
- Donna Conner, author of Homeschooling Only One |

...as someone who has been trained and works in the field of post-childhood trauma, and has devoted considerable thought to the matter, I have formed the opinion that the entire concept of school is flawed. In fact, it is a terrible mistake.
~ Douglas Gresham
Wow!
Homeschool Dialogues is so full of information that I know I will have to go back and read it again.
- Nikki Hinkle |

Every church should commit resources, its reputation, empowerment, etc. to parents who are homeschooling...
~ Josh McDowell
|

When children are ready in their senses, cognition, able to respond to questions such as "Why?" and "How?", they may be ready for formal classes.
~ Dr. Raymond Moore
I have just finished reading Homeschool Dialogues, published by The Old Schoolhouse, and have been intrigued with each chapter. Even though each chapter highlights an interview with a proponent of homeschooling, there are many different angles from which to gain insight. For anyone that is either contemplating homeschooling, needing encouragement in the midst of homeschooling or evaluating their reasons for homeschooling, this book is for you. You will be encouraged and challenged in your quest to gain more knowledge in the world of homeschooling.

Satan hates what God loves and God loves us, Mankind.
~ Douglas Gresham
I appreciated the diversity of each chapter/dialogue featuring so many people that I respect and highly esteem. It was the perfect balance of differing people and perspectives about and regarding homeschooling.
