The Way America Treats Its Young Men
A high school senior who didn’t want to choose sides between joining last month’s National Gun Control Walkout or waiting it out in a study hall decided to just go to his classroom as usual. This netted him a suspension.

I’m so glad we homeschooled our kids for high school; by age 18 they were either working, going to college or both.

Yep, homeschooling is still the best way to educate your children. 🙂
