The Classical Revolt: Reclaiming Your Child's Education in a World Gone Mad

Your child is more than just a seat in a classroom, a data point, or a means to someone else's ends. In this groundbreaking book, readers discover why the traditional pillars of education have crumbled-and more importantly, how to rebuild them.

Drawing from both classical wisdom and modern insights, ""The Classical Revolt"" presents a bold vision for parents who refuse to surrender their children's education to ideological currents. Rachel Terry reveals how today's educational system has strayed from its foundational purpose, replacing academic excellence with political agendas and substituting timeless knowledge with trending social theories.

This isn't just another critique of modern education-it's a practical blueprint for action. Through three foundational principles-Protection, Preparation, and Paideia-parents will learn how to:

- Shield their children from educational approaches that compromise intellectual and emotional development

- Build a robust academic foundation that surpasses what previous generations received

- Preserve and transmit cultural heritage in an age that seeks to erase it

- Transform their children's education from a source of anxiety into a journey of enlightenment

The author demonstrates why today's parents must become their children's primary educators, not just their caregivers. From analyzing the stark differences between historical and modern educational standards to exposing the hidden influences in contemporary schooling, this book equips parents with the tools they need to lead their own educational revolt.

""The Classical Revolt"" arrives at a crucial moment when parents across the Western world are waking up to the realization that education should cultivate wisdom, not just train children to become shallow-thinking ideologues. It offers hope and direction for those ready to embrace their role in preserving civilization, one child at a time.

Perfect for parents, educators, and anyone concerned about the future of education, this book provides both the inspiration and the practical guidance needed to reclaim our children's intellectual heritage and secure their educational future.
