    While recently away to attend the funeral of a brother killed in a car accident, I was told that his oldest of three grown daughters is homeschooling his two little granddaughters.
    The first word out of my mouth was an exclamation that said, "GOOD!"

      Hopefully they are going at it from a good basis. We home-schooled both of our kids. Non-religious and academically focused. But neither one for very long. We both had to work and just wasn't enough time. We focused on pushing the schools to do more what we wanted after that. Anyway - maybe you can help guide them :) I was just looking at https://www.vandammeacademy.com/ - not to send them there - but for ideas. Also, maybe buy her Leonard Peikoff's Books - Teaching Johnny To Think and Objective Communication: Writing, Speaking and Arguing. Especially the first. It ties Rand's Objectivist Epistemology to some other ideas and teaching skills that could help.
