This book will be an indispensable resource for our family for many years. Even if you're not homeschooling, there are so many principles that a family would benefit from in this book, from helping children transition as they mature to practices that can be exercised within a family to encourage a true love of learning. I think it also worth noting that the authors manage to address the state of our public school systems without being overly negative or condescending. I seem to be at an impass with this book. I want to finish reading it, but I also want to implement parts of the book before I go on...and I have an unwilling husband. This book has much about family dynamics that can improve our family relationships, but it takes work and commitment and time! Both parents have to be willing to use these suggestions for the good of their children. I need to get my own copy and pray about how to make this work for us. I see the incredible good it could do for us.
The last one was eye-opening but I already like this one better because of the applications.
