As more parents have careers that allow them to work from home, home-schooling their children becomes realistic and advantageous alternative to traditional schooling.

The industrial revolution moved families off the farm and into the modern world. “This change meant children stopped spending all day with their parents and began being educated in the public schools. Skills and knowledge that were once quintessential to life slowly disappeared. Educators insisted that their knowledge was paramount. A definite but debatable repercussion of this new education philosophy was the breakdown of the family unit.”

During the 1800′s and 1900′s, education and educators evolved into a powerful source of education for our children. It is not suprising that it has been a mixed bag of results for our children, some good and some not.

Now change is again occuring, parents are returning to their homes to work. Technology has made it possible for parents to make a good income at home. They are also better able to support and educate their children. Traditional education methods of the last 200 years are being questioned and seen as out-dated.
