Application.Teacher (Homeschooling)

In addition to our basic research at Stanford and the University of Colorado Medical School, we analyzed over 8000 studies of children's senses, brain, cognition, socialization, etc., and are certain that no replicable evidence exists for rushing children into formal study at home or school before 8 or 10. (The Moore Formula, The Moore Foundation)

Parents should be the only teachers of their children until they have reached eight or ten years of age. (Ellen G. White, Testimonies for the Church, Volume 3, Proper Education, page 137)
