In the aftermath of the heartbreaking Catholic school shooting in Minneapolis, my heart is heavy. Like many of you, I’ve imagined what I would have felt if my children were in that building. I’ve been devastated for those children, and their terrified parents.
But even in the grief, I feel something else too — resolve.
Because every time tragedy strikes a school, something stirs in the hearts of parents. We realize, again, that no one will protect our children like we will. And many families — quietly, prayerfully — start bringing their children home.
I remember in my 10+ years working in homeschooling, every time tragedy struck a school, our phones would ring off the hook the next day, and after events like Sandy Hook, the phones rang like that for weeks.
Parents from every corner of the country called in with questions, desperate for a safe path forward for their children.
They were tired of hearing about little children being targeted by violent, mentally deranged people, while their parents were locked outside the building, just waiting to hear if their child was one of the victims.
Those were long days — answering questions, explaining learning style differences, guiding worried parents through state paperwork, and helping thousands of families step out in faith to begin the homeschooling journey.
Today, the same urgency is upon us as new waves of parents make the same judgment call. Parents are once again deciding to take their children home, searching for safety and freedom.
But this time, there’s a new threat: a growing crackdown on homeschooling itself.
You see, as homeschooling grows, it represent more and more of a threat to the educational establishment.
The same voices pushing to sterilize children, the same lawmakers who erased God from the classroom, the ones pushing CRT, pornographic curriculum and gender confusion — those same people want to control your right to homeschool.
They don’t want to see millions of kids leave the Government school system.
They want to be able to mold our children’s minds — and when they see families leaving in droves, like they are the wake of this shooting, they want to clamp down on homeschooling.
This isn’t a scare tactic or fear mongering. This is exactly when anti-homeschooling legislation starts getting drafted in states across the country.
Now is the time to act. Please sign your official petition to protect homeschool rights!
Tell your legislators NOT to punish homeschoolers for a problem we didn’t create.
