Most parents who home school do so because they want something better for their children than what is usually meant by the real world. Actually, the real world encompasses a lot of places and a lot of lifestyles. None of us can be comfortable in all places. The skid row alcoholic, for example, would be just as uncomfortable in a temple as a prophet would be in a bar. Some people consider it a mark of maturity for their children to slip easily into jr. high; other parents do not want their children to fit into that atmosphere, ever. Parents must decide which corner of the real world they want their children to be comfortable in and then prepare them for that life. If they are to be most comfortable in sacred homes and temples, they need to grow up in holy places.
