Episode 18: Carolyn Forte on Vigilance in Protecting Homeschool Freedoms and Lea

Vigilance in Protecting Homeschool Freedoms and Learning Styles of ChildrenThere is a spiritual warfare on the homeschooling front.  As homeschooling grows and is more widely accepted, there are many people today who see homeschooling as a threat to their idea of what our culture and society should be; independent, accountable and a strength in Christ’s church today. Homeschooling with very limited, or no government control is a valuable freedom to protect and we must be eternal vigilant in that protection as many opposed to homeschooling want control of our children. Our guest today, Carolyn Forte, a veteran homeschooling parent will be talking to us about the homeschooling movement and our need to be eternally vigilant.  She will also be talking about different learning styles of children and how schools fail in recognizing these learning styles and properly educating by them.Carolyn earned a B.A. in Music History from Whittier College.
