Amanda and I can’t get enough of this talk by Sir Ken Robinson. Brew yourself a nice cuppa and settle in. Tell me if you don’t find yourself nodding in agreement. Homeschooling has been OUR solution to this problem, but I find sometimes that it is hard to overcome the public school mentality. Sir Ken opened my eyes a bit and I want to soak up everything he’s saying so that I can find my way through, into a new way of thinking about my children’s education. What is our ultimate goal? It is, of course, heaven. But in the meantime, is it not our responsibility to nuture our children’s talents and enable them to think creatively so that they can live the life God created them for?
