It's understandable that there are certain situations where homeschooling simply isn't possible. And in a society that places demands on families that require children to be educated according to certain standards set by the state, often, Christian parents find themselves in a situation where no other option exists but to send their children to public schools.

I certainly sympathize with these parents and I don't have all of the solutions, but I do believe that the Church should stand up to support Christian parents in these dire situations. However, I’ve come to realize that more often than not, the reluctance to homeschool is more about lifestyle than necessity.

That being said, it is growing increasingly and incredibly crucial for parents to make every available effort and sacrifice to pull their children out of the public school system immediately. In fact, even private schools—private Christian schools—are growing increasingly hostile to conservative Christian families who actually believe the Word of God and obey it. I'm not throwing all private Christian schools under the bus, but the good ones are few and far between and even they are becoming out of the financial reach of most Christian parents.

What's the alternative? Homeschooling.

Believe, me. I've thought this through, sought wise counsel, and battled back and forth in my own mind and with people I trust. But it's better to sacrifice your standard of living than to lose your children to the ever-increasing hostile-to-Christianity culture out there. And if you leave your children in public schools, the far-left propagandists in the classrooms are the ones essentially parenting your children. And they aren't parenting them to your Christian standards.
