Homeschool Freedom: Lauren Gideon and Education Independence
from The Nicki Truesdell Podcast · host Nicki Truesdell
As homeschooling grows at a rapid pace, we are witnessing a growing demand for free money, free materials, free activities to make it easier. In addition to that, we are watching state governments increase their demands on homeschooling parents in the name of “protection” and “academic rigor.”The freedom to educate your children at home is such a basic right, but it is really controversial in many circles, especially those who view government as the giver of liberty. Homeschool freedom has only existed for the past 30-40 years in America, and with growth has come more threats to that freedom.Today’s show is about education freedom and education subsidies. I’m joined by Lauren Gideon of Education Independence to discuss the current threats to homeschool freedom and what we can do about it.LINKS:Education Independence website: https://chooseeducationindependence.com/about/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/EducationIndependenceCC/X: https://x.com/eduindependenceInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/education.independence/Understanding school choice: https://nickitruesdell.com/understanding-school-choice/Connect with Nicki -- Website https://nickitruesdell.com/Homeschool 101 https://nickitruesdell.com/homeschool-101/ Homeschool Consultations https://nickitruesdell.com/homeschool-consulting/ Facebook https://www.facebook.com/nickitruesdellofficialInstagram https://www.instagram.com/nickitruesdell/ Amazon https://www.amazon.com/shop/nickitruesdell.com?ref_=cm_sw_r_cp_ud_aipsfshop_WZG2CAV74BJG6723114Q X https://x.com/nickitruesdell Get my books:Anyone Can Homeschool on Amazon, Kindle, and Audible! https://amzn.to/4fnSWs8Home Sweet Homeschool on Amazon and Kindle https://amzn.to/4qY4zMbKnowledge Keepers books on Amazon https://tinyurl.com/4h9k4dry
