A homeschooler at work
**PARENTAL WARNING: Parts of this episode are unsuitable for children - and please note that we don't necessarily agree with all the content in the linked articles.**
Host Theresa - who attends Mary Help of Christians (Melbourne) mission, that provides the Traditional (Tridentine) Latin Mass to faithful Catholics throughout Australia - returns this season with her ongoing guest, and good friend, Jacinta, to warn against the evils of mainstream schools and to encourage all Catholic parents to homeschool rather than hand over their precious children to these soul-snatching institutes.
Jacinta attended mainstream schools a generation ago (when they were nowhere near as bad as they are now), went on to become a qualified teacher working at mainstream schools, and has recently started homeschooling the eldest of her three children. Already, “the proof is in the pudding,” as demonstrated by her daughter being about three years ahead in reading capabilities, compared with her mainstream counterparts, after only about one year of casual home-preschooling, utilising typical homeschooling resources. At this point in time, Jacinta intends to exclusively homeschool all her children, given there is currently no other Catholic option for schooling in Australia.
