Why I Would Not Use Classical Education | A Veteran Homeschool Mom’s Take

from Mom Delights Homemaking and Homeschooling · host Sherry Hayes

Classical Education is being praised by top conservatives, but after 36 years homeschooling my 15 children, I’ve learned it’s not the answer—and may even be harmful. In this video, I explain why I reject it, share historical insights, and offer practical, Christ-centered alternatives like Charlotte Mason, the Moore Formula, and Unschooling. Listen while you get things done, and let’s rethink what “real learning” means.
