Christianity Today features an article by Helen Lee on why their family has benefited from educating their children at home. She provides a thoughtful, heartfelt defense of home-schooling. She wrote, "But the most surprising result of all? By breaking away from the
public-school system that we had originally been so intent on entering,
we no longer follow a defined success narrative that guides the paths of
so many families around us. Ultimately, I think this was what God
wanted to show me by encouraging this change in our family. I no longer
see "success" only resulting from following the typical life story that
my generation and I were encouraged to follow: go to a good school, get
good grades, go to a good college, get a good job, then get married and
have kids and repeat the cycle all over again."
