- Mike Morris and I discussed his plans to teach his children at home, in
- e-mail, sometime last spring. At the time, my only real concern was that
- his children would miss out on the social aspect of school, which I do
- think is an important part of it. Mike assured me that he was aware of
- that problem, and would make sure that that he knew of its importance.

- My own schooling (Catholic schools in Massachusetts, Minnesota and New Jersey)
- can be used as an argument for home schooling. I learned very little in
- High School, and was bored through most of grade school. I wish that I
- had someone like Mike to teach me, during that time, and would gladly
- put the education of my children in his hands.
