I get the impression that a number of Christian parents may be reviewing their commitment to sending their children to school in the wake of the current wave of transgender ideology in schools.
I certainly hope so anyway. The Christian Institute and others do a noble job fighting what seems to be a rearguard action against the determined march into classrooms of Mermaids and similar organisations whose objectives seem to be to confuse and sexualise young children. But parents must be aware that children have no “back button”. Once a perverted idea is planted or a perverted image is seen it can NEVER be removed. However much input you try to have on your child's school you run a high risk. You cannot wait until the Christian Institute has succeeded. You have to protect your child now. If your child is shy about mentioning such things to you (surely not unlikely!) you may never find out what has happened in any case. In the past, I have been criticised for including Margaret Clarkson's little book Suzie's Babies on volume 4 of the Mothers' Companion. Some parents felt that young children should not be taught about such things until they were older. I have a great deal of sympathy with this point of view. However, if you read the Christian Institute's excellent guidance for parents with children in schools and then look at Margaret Clarkson's gentle tale of a mother hamster and her family, the contrast will strike you. If you home educate, unless your children live in an unhealthily isolated environment, they will come across other children who have been fed the perversions outlined in the CI guide. Even if they only associate with other home schooled children, some of those children will have had contact with school children. I think your children are better off if you introduce them to the truth first. Then at least they will be shocked by what they hear rather than accepting it.

I've noticed a small mistake in “English Sheet 40: the er sound” in volume 4 of the Mothers' Companion flashdrive. You can correct this yourself by substituting the word “plot” for the word "sort" on line 9 of the text or if you prefer to return your flashdrive to me I will update it for you. New flashdrives will have the correct word. If you decide to return the flashdrive for updating, please contact me first so I can give you our new address.
We've moved! After a few stressful days I'm finally sorted out and up and running again. If you've been thinking about buying a Mothers' Companion flashdrive now is the time to do it as I'm all organised now and can get orders off straight away again. A reminder that there are still plenty of goodies for free almost every day on https://christianhomeeducation.weebly.com/. Lots of lessons for all the family with an emphasis on Christian worldview. There is a lesson for almost every day in June dealing with something related to the particular date.
