You should do it all the time!
Still got a down thumb lol Likely from a Liberal who is either NO or goes to college or both.

Or maybe from somene who's so used to down-thumbing every post of yours that it was an accident from force of habit

[No, it wasn't me. I'm not a fan of colleges.]

Good for him! I only would suggest collage to my children if I were to see that they had a desire to go into the healthcare field. Other than that, I highly recommend against it.

I agree, and I love that he’s against it for our kids too. Lol which is weird because he’s fine sending them to school now, but ... God is turning His head towards homeschooling for sure lately!

But, if your children have to go to a brick and mortar school because they need a degree in these fields, they can go to a local state university and live at home.

Yes, I think the problem is not the university exactly, though that is dangerous, but living outside of the family home among unbelievers when one is too young and impressionable and not ready for living on one's own amidst strong temptations with out their father and mother there to protect them. I do not think most young adults are ready to live on their own (or especially with non-Catholic roommates) at the age of 18 today, especially the girls. I don't know about everyone but in my own university experience the dorms were dens of vipers.

Yes, that is the answer to the problem, and the problem is sending your children away to a school in another town where they will be living by themselves, even if it is sending them away to elementary or high school to St. Mary's Kansas.

There are many fields that require higher learning to get a license, like medicine, science, engineering, architecture, school teacher...…., and one can today go to practically any university online. But, if your children have to go to a brick and mortar school because they need a degree in these fields, they can go to a local state university and live at home.

Although online courses or living at home while attending a local state university would be better, I don't think it would fix the problem completely because there is still liberal bias in the course content (depending upon the course).
But yes, the above measures would limit the potential for damage.

Unless it's some sort of social science or political course, I doubt it. And the main danger with college isn't really the curricular brainwashing, even most worldy people think college professors are biased and full of [censored] these days. The real danger is embracing the degenerate lifestyle that 99% of the other students will be living and being surrounded by unavoidable occasions of sin 24/7.
