Family is the single most important influence on a child's life and offers unrivaled support, security, encouragement, and affection that is clothed in unconditional love
*Nothing* can compete with family

2. You Can Prioritize Your Kids
Homeschool prioritizes kids by giving them an education (and childhood) built around THEIR unique abilities, talents, passions, interests, and dreams
Public education is built for the collective, not the individual...significant difference

Parents are fully qualified and equipped to raise their own children

6. You Can Protect Their Hearts and Minds

7. You Can Give Them Greater Access to the World
Contrary to popular belief, homeschool kids have greater access to the world at large than kids confined to a classroom all day
This is crucial to their overall social development and the formation of their unique worldviews

8. You Can Be Flexible
Homeschool offers incredible flexibility built around the child
If the child can't learn the way you teach, then you can pivot and teach the way they learn
You're able to work at their pace and ensure they are successful and growing (and happy)

9. You Can Prioritize Literature
Homeschool enables you to saturate your kids in classic literature
This is one of the greatest educational gifts you can give them
It forces kids to think deeply and concentrate, breaking them free from the hyper accelerated 21st century life

10. You Can Cultivate Crucial Life Skills
Homeschool cultivates strong critical thinking skills and problem solving skills so children won't be easily carried away by the cultural waves of stupidity, ignorance, and unhinged ideologies

11. You Can Encourage Individuality Over Conformity
Since when did we want kids "conforming" and "sitting quietly" and merely "regurgitating learned information"?
They are the next generation of "society makers" and "innovators" and "pioneers" and "trailblazers"
Set them free

12. You Can Give Them An Adventurous Life
Children should be free to explore and engage the beautiful world around them (not trapped in a classroom)
You can work diligently to provide an education that is exciting and invigorating; that fans their raging curiosity into flame

13. You Can Reduce Anxiety
Adolescent anxiety, depression, and suicide decline during the summer, but Vanderbilt University researchers found that suicidal tendencies spike at back-to-school time
There's a high correlation between school attendance and suicidal thoughts

14. You Can Teach About Money and Business
These topics are virtually never taught in public school
Having an understanding of these topics is crucial to survival and future success
Instead of producing cogs in a machine, you can produce individuals ready for the real world

15. Better Social Development
Kids learn best from adults who love them, not from kids their own age who know as little as they do
Public school is an artificial reality that has no resemblance of the real world
Reality is being surrounded by people of all ages/backgrounds
