: We agree on Section Five, but you seem to disagree on One through Four, preferring instead a lack of a standard.  The trouble is that a lack of a standard is an invitation to substandard work, unhelpful conflicts, or complete failure.  Some homeschooling parents pull their kids out of public school, for example, only to submit their kids unwittingly to the same junk in homeschooling materials.  If the group has adopted this constitution, then word will get around that a high standard has been set and some materials and approaches are no longer acceptable.  That's a plus.

: As to foreign-language-speaking homeschoolers who teach in their foreign language, they are raising kids who won't be able to function and contribute in America as well as they could have if they had adopted English as the language.  Again, the point is to make the most of this education.  Those who want bilingual education can get it from public school, and unfortunately suffer because of it.--[[User:Aschlafly|Aschlafly]] 22:49, 23 September 2008 (EDT)
