Carnival of Homeschooling is up

Don’t forget your back-to-school physical! The clinic is up over at this week’s Carnival of Homeschooling at Mom is Teaching.

Abstinence as abuse, or society keeps getting stranger

Now it is abuse to not kiss a guy before marriage?
Michelle looks happy enough, but it can’t possibly be real. Not when:
her parents so brainwashed her from the time she was not capable of making an informed decision, and then insulated her from society to maintain that indoctrination so severely, that this girl has [...]

Some thoughts on teen rebellion

Feeling a bit “homesick” I spent entirely too much time watching old German rock songs on YouTube last night. I came across an old one by Die Ärzte that I hadn’t heard before, Rebell (Rebel).
