Great Quote about Homeschooling

The decision to homeschool will, by its nature, create division.  To those who choose to enroll their children in public school, your decision to homeschool is a passive condemnation of their lifestyle.  Since homeschooling rejects the educational status quo, it invites criticism and rejection, not just for us as adults but also for our children.  Family members, church members, friends and even strangers will question your decision and scrutinize your life.  I am finding that only heart-deep dedication and sacrifice enables me to confidently say, "This is right.  This is what God wants me to do.  This is worth it."  Because I know that doing God's will is worth whatever the cost may be.

-From Seasons of a Mother's Heart by Sally Clarkson.
