128. A Case for the Classics  
Podcast: School to Homeschool
Published On: Mon Dec 15 2025
Description: Today, I'm making a case for why classic literature still matters—especially for kids leaving the public school system. In this episode, we explore how the classics build empathy, critical thinking, attention span, and moral imagination in ways modern books often don't. If you're homeschooling or considering it, this conversation will challenge you to rethink what your children read—and why it matters.
