Children Trap, The (PB)

Though this book was written in the 1980's, the relevance of this book is, if anything, greater today than when it was first written. The book is a clear attack on the public school system as being inherently anti-Christian and devoted to idolatrous humanistic ideals. I find it striking, and somewhat disconcerting, just how many people who claim to be Christian have no problems in working in such corrupt institutions as public schools, and oppose home schooling and parochial education. Who owns the children? God does, and He gives parents the responsibility to educate their own children. Where the book succeeds most wonderfully is in its practical ways of destroying public school systems by emphasizing their flagrant failures as well as in providing tips for people to start schools to provide competition that public schools are ill equipped to handle. For those looking at some practical blueprints to educational improvement with a focus on parochial education (as well as home schooling), this book is excellent.
