  1. I am currently reading Gatto's Weapons of Mass Instruction. It's more of an American history of cumpulsory schooling, but gets into the Prussian roots. Very scary stuff.

    We'll definitely be homeschooling all the way.

    Wish I could homeschool on a full-time basis. You are teaching me so much. Thanks.
