"Homeschooling" or "Home Schooling"

WITHOUT PREJUDICE
Be careful how you hear...and how you read. Consider the term 'homeschooling'. Take a breath. Exhale. Take another one. Breathe normally. In the context of legalese term 'homeschooling' *is not* the same as 'home schooling'. If it was, there would be a space between them both. As someone insightfully commented, part of the problem is that people presume to know what they dont know. Maybe 'they' get you giving yourself too many IQ points. Perhaps refer to that activity of child-raising and teaching as 'child raising', 'private leadership', 'family education', 'private schooling', 'God-food feeding', 'feeding Jesus' flock', 'teaching my own children', 'home learning', 'private learning'. The term homeschooling is likely loaded in a legal sense.

When we (my Son and I) decided a few years back to homeschool, we did it.

Or so we learned that schools were for fish, so we decided to go fishing on our private field day pre scheduled events.

During these events we decided to discuss how to catch these fish more successfully and more often so to keep a regular diet of these fish, assorted species.

We also discussed that homeschooling was certainly for the fish, so we decided to call it' home education... to the best of our abilities.

Then we got new neighbors and the insults and rude remarks stepped up to belittle the type of education vs. public sanctioned education. Note: These new neighbors choose to live in the social system a.k.a. welfare State and receive their just dues owing from some sort of benefit.

Well, in short I have to finish this typing for now, as, I am going fishing with my Son so that we can discuss this CIT function to the best of our abilities (his friends are listening, and learning).

Happy Trails.... (Outstanding icon entered)

This is a quote from the prologue to the book The Underground History of American Education by John Taylor Gatto. You can read it online for free at http://www.johntaylorgatto.com/index.htm
I am so glad my children are not part of this system, and they won't be, because I refuse to ask permission to teach my children at home by "registering my intention to homeschool." It's none of their business!
The state can have my children when they pry my (and my husband's) cold, dead hands off them!

Yes, it is. It is typical of people who post here to find an enormous significant in typographical matters--if something is written as one word or two, in capital letters or not--but that's just nonsense. All these "amazing distinction" have no legal meaning anywhere except in the mind of this forum's denziens.

Compare "it was a lightyear" with "it was a light year". One scenario discusses distance. The other discusses a low or small quantity.

He is a school-schooled lawyer.

His craft is argument through the twisting of words, and, he probably cannot help it at this point, as it has likely become subconscious autonomous reflex having been assimilated into the core of his being in place of the soul and its spirit which was driven out by the process of acceptance of and submission to this craft.

Well put!
and that is contrary to "guard your heart" of scripture.
