I came across this quote in a Homeschool mailer.. what an wonderful statement in support of homeschooling! I agree with this 100%.. as I read it, I could't believe it was said by Laura Ingalls Wilder! It sounded like it would be by someone in today's time period! Amazing!

"I believe it would be much better for everyone if children were given their start in education at home. No one understands a child as well as his mother, and children are so different that they need individual training and study. A teacher with a room full of pupils cannot do this. At home, too, they are in their mother's care. She can keep them from learning immoral things from other children." ~Laura Ingalls Wilder
