 home schooling is faster and more comprehensive than sending the little tykes off to government day care disguised as teaching;


“Work expands to fit the allotted time,” the saying goes. And that education is no exception holds a lesson: Some will say when pondering homeschooling, “I’m not qualified to teach my kids.” But, informs homeschooling advocate Brett Pike, it’s not just that you can teach your kids — and splendidly.

It’s that you can do it in a fraction of the time schools do.

In a Friday X video post, Pike relates the story of parents Aaron and Kaleena Amuchastegui. The Amuchasteguis were typical Americans who believed in the “system.” You send your kids to school, they ascend through the grades, go to college, and then start a career. But as luck would have it, they at some point found themselves needing to teach their elementary-school daughter at home for a couple of weeks.

Well, it was the parents who learned the biggest lesson.

That is, they found they could teach their girl all the prescribed material in just one hour a day.

This revelation completely changed their lives. It inspired them to write a book, too: The 5-Hour School Week: An Inspirational Guide to Leaving the Classroom to Embrace Learning in a Way You Never Imagined.

Time for What Matters

It wasn’t just that the Amuchasteguis saved time, either. Pike, who hosts the YouTube channel Classical Learner, reports that the Amuchasteguis’ daughter actually improved educationally. (For example, after just the two weeks of homeschooling, she was finally able to spell and pronounce her last name.)

 looks like ukraine has a motivation problem;


In a recent interview with the Ukrainian YouTube channel Politeka Online, Parliament member Anna Skoryakhad disclosed alarming figures regarding the Ukrainian Armed Forces (UAF), revealing that nearly 400,000 cases of desertion have been recorded.

This revelation has sparked intense debate within Ukraine, raising questions about the military’s stability and the challenges faced by its personnel.

Skoryakhad emphasized that these figures are ‘general’ and did not specify the exact period for which the data was collected, leaving room for further scrutiny and clarification.

The implications of such a high number of desertions are significant, not only for the morale of the remaining troops but also for the broader strategic objectives of the UAF in the ongoing conflict with Russia.

The distinction between desertion and absence without leave (AWL) is crucial in understanding the gravity of the situation.

Under Ukrainian legislation, desertion is defined as the intentional abandonment of military service and is punishable by imprisonment............more........
