I will not compromise my children to The State.

At first, I resolved to homeschool my kids because I preferred the efficiency and style that homeschooling allowed when compared to the over-structured system of traditional education.

Then, I resolved to not-send my children to schools because I do not trust the government to raise my kids, and I will not stand for someone indoctrinating my children into a system of thought behind my back.

Most recently, I honestly fear for the mental, emotional, and physical well-being of my children if placed in the hostile environment that schools are becoming. I fear for their dignity. And I refuse to have my children harassed and brow-beaten and punished for crimes they have not committed.

I vow to do all I can to keep my children safe from schools.

I think it really varies greatly from school to school. I went to public school, and I think I turned out all right. When my kids go to school, I will definitely be very vigilant about whatever school they go to...public or private.
