My family & many people I didn't even know didn't agree (like I would take advice of strangers). As time went on and I knew this was a call from God (and I am pretty thick skinned) I really got over whether people agreed or not. Also, every day the government schools deteriorate I thank God our children are spared from all that "stuff." They are all saved, love the Lord and can read & write. This was, is, right for our family and I answer to God, not man. It is a matter of prayer between you, your spouse and God. I disagree with all my family members whose kids are in public school but my opinion doesn't matter to them either. We agree to disagree. We have to do what is right for our own household and just be polite and if people really want to "discuss" it, discuss it, but if they are getting opinionated and negative just kindly ask to end the conversation. Hope that helps someone. : ) When I started hsing 8-9 years ago I really thought everyone had to agree with me.
