Homeschool or die vol. 7

by Vox Popoli

Every two hours, a teenager in America takes his or her own life. Suicide is the third leading cause of death among youth, and the rate of teen suicide has roughly tripled since 1960....

Scientists have identified many contributing factors: Discrimination, the number of sexual partners, substance abuse, being dumped by a romantic partner, parental divorce, child physical and sexual abuse, bullying and even excessive video-gaming play a role. Scholars at the University of Chicago's National Opinion Research Center have offered a novel contributing factor to teen suicide: high school. Given that the summer vacation reduces the teen suicide rate from 6.22 per 100,000 to 4.71, this means that banning public school would save 1,092 lives per year.

by Vyckie Garrison

Quiverfull Believers eschew all forms of birth control in favor of "trusting the Lord" with their family planning. The follow traditional family values, which insists that the husband is the head of the household and the wife is the submissive "helpmeet."

The Quiverfull lifestyle is extremely demanding and the only way a woman can hope to succeed is to rely heavily on her older daughters. It is expected that a Quiverfull daughter will be fully capable of running the household, including all meal-preparation, laundry duties, child care and homeschooling of younger siblings by the age of twelve. Many girls are doing all this by the time they're eight or ten because their mothers are so consumed with birthing more and more "arrows" to fill the quivers of their husbands.

by Walter Hudson

There are many addictions far worse than smoking. Political correctness is one.

Why do we smoke? Some people consider it merely a habit that has become homeopathic, a pleasurable remedy for a depressing world no different in principle from alcoholism or drug addiction. It is a fix whose only cure is a lifetime of cold turkey garnished with the rhetoric of moral repudiation. One "swears off" the thing. As for instance, teetotalers who wore badges of purity - "blue-ribbon stalwarts," as John Buchan called them in The 39 Steps - and reformed junkies who appear on talk shows like so many Lazaruses recounting the horrors of Sheol.
