"Freedom of education is not education that is controlled or delivered by the State, any more than freedom of speech is speech that is controlled or delivered by the State. Nor is "freedom" to be found within alternatives or mobility within the system (school choice, charter schools). Nor is it found in the "right" to attend State-recognized, State-regulated, privately-funded schools in lieu of State schools. Least of all is it a matter of extending government control -- a.k.a. "strings" -- any more than it already goes into so-called "private schools" (vouchers, tax credits, financial aid)."

"In compulsory schooling, there is no time for what you're curious for. In this environment there is only one type of education; schooling (learning to behave, conform, set aside personal enterprises, etc.) By putting off curiosity in every moment it arrives, one risks perpetuating stupefaction, and stunting personal growth - mind, body, and spirit.

Thank God for homeschooling--the only true expression of the remaining freedom of education.
