From ch 6, on being "qualified" to teach your own child(ren):

"Qualifying to teach our own children is not a matter of educational attainments, licensure, or experience. And it is most certainly not a matter of permission. The deeper issue at the root is authority. The question we need to ask ourselves is, where is the responsibility for the child’s wellbeing and education supposed to reside? When a couple conceives a child, who has the authority--the right--to choose where the child lives or what the child wears and eats? God in His wisdom ordained both a mother and father to raise up the next generation in the context of a lifelong covenantal commitment (again, not as a “marriage” understood by the state). In a rational world, this makes sense. The baby knows and belongs to his or her mother and father. Only in a broken world does the mother have the ultimate right to abort her child, but not to raise him or her up once the birth day occurs. Once the child is born, the social security number is issued and suddenly he or she is a matter of state concern."
