National Television Ad Campaign: Preschool Damages Children

MEDIA ADVISORY, June 6 /Christian Newswire/ -- Considering Homeschooling announces national television ad campaign to urge Christian parents to preschool at home.

As the universal preschool lobby makes political inroads in states across the union and as parents are inundated with the message to separate from their babies and young children, Considering Homeschooling is attempting to counter this attack on the biblical family.

"The growing debate, initiatives, and legislation concerning preschool are all based on the faulty presupposition that preschool is beneficial to children," said Charles B. Lowers, Executive Director of Considering Homeschooling. "Studies have shown negative consequences from placing children in institutional preschool programs. This makes sense because God created the ideal place for children to thrive, learn, and grow -- right in their mom's loving arms."

Considering Homeschooling hopes to set the record straight with a long-term national campaign, launching a series of television ads in select markets during "family" programming. See the first ad on our website: www.consideringhomeschooling.com 

"The Hollywood elitists and ivory tower think tanks have it wrong. And sadly, most Christian families have it wrong. They want to replace moms, dads, and the family system designed by God with an institutional system of professional caretakers," says Lowers. "Where are parents receiving encouragement to stay home and nurture their own infants? Many churches are in the preschool business and have inadvertently undermined the biblical responsibility of fathers to raise up their children in the Lord. If a family has been persuaded to keep their children home, it is more likely because they were influenced by Dr. Laura, than by the pulpit. Christian men need to take the headship of their homes, and not allow their children to be placed in daycare."

Considering Homeschooling is a nationwide ministry -- started in Orange County, California by Charles and Kathy Lowers -- that focuses on introducing Christian parents of babies, toddlers and preschoolers to biblical homeschooling. The group urges families that can create a safe, loving, Christ-centered environment where a child can learn and thrive, to homeschool.
