Alan Scholl and his wife, Doreen, have successfully homeschooled
seven children over the past 29 years.

In addition to that
accomplishment, Scholl — sensing the need for a learning system that
would empower parents to exit the public school bureaucracy and provide
his and Doreen’s children with a solid classical education founded on
both Judeo-Christian and Americanist principles —

Three years ago
they launched FreedomProject Education
(FPE), a nationwide online K-12 school that has exploded from 22
students in 2011 to over 600 at the beginning of the 2014 school year.

The impetus that motivated the Scholls to take their children out of
the failing public school nightmare and begin their quest to school them
at home with solid spiritual and civic values, is the same motivation
that prompted Scholl to launch FPE.

That motivation has been predicated on the century-old battle that
continues to rage for the hearts and souls of America’s children, Scholl
says in a vital new FPE video entitled Who Owns Your Children?: The Dangers of Government as Parent.

The conflict “involves two radically opposing views on parenting and
education,” Scholl explains.

Over time this battle, which has seen,
variously, local, state, and federal governments chipping away at the
authority of parents to determine how their kids will be educated and
what they can — and cannot — learn.

This “has resulted in the damaging of
education in America, as well as the co-opting of our liberties, our
constitutional government, and many valuable elements of our American
society.”

Scholl notes that several generations of Americans have witnessed the
gradual conversion of what used to be a serviceable education structure
into little more than a system of socialist indoctrination.

“While many
Americans are waking up to the truly sinister nature of what is going
on,” he says, “the majority of citizens have no idea of what is
happening to their children and this nation.”

The America that the Founding Fathers gave us — including the
education system of our beginning forbears — was, to say the least, much
different from the system under which Americans struggle today. “The
system that gave us unprecedented prosperity and liberty served us so
well for generations,” says Scholl.

Under the Founders’ philosophy, all Americans — children as well as
adults — were seen as sovereign individuals made in the image of God.
“Education in early America was a family affair,” he says, “designed by
individuals parents for their children, and delivered largely by them.

Even if it was administered outside the home, parents were
intimately involved, not just in the teaching but in the curriculum
itself.”

At the heart of that involvement was the conviction among a majority
of early American parents that, in truth, God owned their children, and
mother and father were stewards with the responsibility of ensuring a
godly upbringing and training for a fruitful adulthood.

“From 1600 to about 1880 virtually every textbook used in American
education quoted, referenced, or directly cited Scripture,” notes
Scholl. That practice continued well into the 20th century.”

Over the past several decades, however, there has been a concerted
effort to deny America’s Christian foundations, and to ban them from
public education. And never has that effort been as aggressive as today.

Quoting Noah Webster’s conviction (shared by literally all of his and
succeeding generations) that the “principles of genuine liberty, and of
the wise laws and administrations, are to be drawn from the Bible and
sustained by its authority.”

Scholl warns that the the Judeo-Christian
principles that guided our nation for over 200 years “are being
systematically outlawed today.”

While Founding Father John Adams advised that America’s
constitutional Republic was created for “a moral and religious people,
and is wholly inadequate for the government of any other,” in today’s
government schools, observes Scholl, “Bible, prayer, and Christian
thought and practice are either banned or severely denigrated.”

This denial of the Judeo-Christian foundations of education, so vital
to American families for most of our nation’s history, has led to a
meltdown of family values — and an increasingly overt assault on
traditional families.

Scholl notes that an “overtly socialist/Marxist viewpoint has now
become the new norm. It has been embedded in our culture, in our
schools, and especially in our educational establishment.

Statism,
socialism, extreme nationalism, fascism, extremist environmentalism —
are all first cousins of the same worldview, which denies God’s supreme
role in our lives.”

And in this worldview “government is the primary educator — and
ultimately the sole judge of what will be taught to our children,” he
adds.

While some may assume the notion that government should have absolute
authority over children is a fairly recent development, in the second
half of Who Owns Your Children?

Scholl lays out the
nearly-100-year-old blueprint that has systematically chipped away at
America’s Judeo-Christian foundations while slowly undermining the
authority of parents to raise their children.

Not surprisingly, at the
center of the scheme from its earliest germination has been a steady
stream of godless and socialist/collectivist education functionaries.

Scholl quotes John Dunphy, a close associates of John Dewey, himself an author and signer of the 1933 Humanist Manifesto and
considered the father of modern public education, as declaring in 1983
that “the battle for humankind’s future must be waged and won in the
public school classroom by teachers that correctly perceive their role
as proselytizers of a new faith…”

Dunphy, whom Scholl describes as a ghost writer for Dewey, goes on to
declare that the public school classroom “must and will become an arena
of conflict between the old and new — the rotting corpse of
Christianity, together with all its adjacent evils and misery, and the
new faith of humanism…”

Arguing that this godless and destructive philosophy is the driving
force behind America’s public school structure today — including the
latest “Common Core” scheme — Scholl recalls the admonition from Abraham
Lincoln that “the philosophy of the schoolroom in one generation will
be the philosophy of the government in the next.”

Scholl concludes his address with a challenge: “Ultimately, parents,
you are going to have to take responsibility for your children, your
grandchildren, and your great grandchildren, and begin to engineer the
choosing of who will teach them and what they will be taught.”

He goes on to say, “I believe ultimately Common Core, the teachers’
unions, many of our public schools and school administrations must be
dismantled over time and replaced with education controlled by the
parents who are responsible for their children.”
