Very interesting. Particularly the difference in the middle to upper income kids vs low income.

"I personally feel children need the nurture of their parents and the home," she said. "Those early years, that's when they are bonding to their family. That nurturing, only the family can give that."

I tend to agree.

Correction: it "would" be hard to keep up if some fresh points were made once in a while... something more substantial than "You're lying" lol.

Here a question for you sabina.

As a Pantheist/Evolutionist, I most certainly believe in God and/or a Higher Power. However, I am not religious, nor even a Christian.

So do I believe in God or not?

"If I were to accuse you of lying, I'd at least try to back that up somehow. Can you do the same?"

Sure. From post 731:

"Any parent can provide educational enrichment to their kids, and most do. But
in Massachusetts, there's a formal process to homeschool your child. I've never heard of anyone being confused about the difference."

Well, it certainly seems as if you are confused.

Either you homeschool or you don't. So, which is it sabina?
