A new study from the Christian think tank Cardus found homeschool students are significantly more likely to report positive mental health outcomes, to be married and have children, to volunteer in their communities, and to believe in God than other groups of adults ages 24-39 who have never been home-schooled. The researchers found those who spent at least 8 years being homeschooled were also had the lowest divorce rate among respondent groups.
Homeschooling as all the potential for creating stable families by developing strong bonds between parents and their children. This method of education allows parents to pour into their children’s lives, educating them from a biblical perspective and instilling strong moral values. Parents considering this option for their children can visit hslda.org for more resources.
