Take Children With You



If you have children you need to take with you into hiding, the one thing that hurts you is that children must be enrolled in school by law. Even home schooled children must be registered. If you are just hiding from an abusive person or stalker, it should be okay to get the children’s school transcripts from their old school and use them to enroll them in the new school. It might be a good idea to call a school ahead of time and ask if there is way to keep your children’s identity protected. It’s okay to be honest about why you are worried. You could make some test calls on schools you are not interested in and this way you are prepared when you call the school you do want. Unless the person you are hiding from knows to check the exact school district you enrolled them in the children should be safe using their Given Names for school. Other than the school, they will be living under your legally assumed identity with you. You don’t have to worry about taking them to a doctor. It’s not a problem, as all medical records are private. Someone might discover such a record, but only if they knew exactly what doctor to call or which hospital. Children are safe because schools don’t let information go easily. Call a few schools and ask what their policies are. Do they give out information about who is enrolled in their school? You will find they don’t.

 

Private Schools and Charter Schools may provide a higher level of privacy but it comes at a price.

 

Your final alternative is Home Schooling for the highest privacy, with some costs involved. For many people, this is the only choice if you want to guarantee a high quality education and you are willing and able to invest your time in your child’s future.

 

HIGHER EDUCATION ADVICE:  This may shock many, but consider allowing your children to NOT attend College after graduating high school.

 

“The cost of a college education has gone up 500% since 1985” … a quote from an ABC news broadcast.

 

“38% of college graduates work in jobs that do not require a college education” … a quote from that same ABC news broadcast.

 

“Four of the five richest people in America are college dropouts” … A quote from Forbes Magazine.

 

The richest man on the planet is a college dropout who failed in two businesses before starting his third business out of his garage with his friend. The company is Microsoft and the two friends are Bill Gates and Paul Allen who is also filthy rich. Successful people keep trying and learn from their failures … they fail but keep trying until they find success!

 

“Ninety percent of millionaires in the USA are High School Dropouts … I honestly can’t remember the source for that quote which I crossed paths with somewhere several years ago.

 

Most high school graduates should never go to college. Often, they have no idea what they want to do, once they graduate. If you have concerns about morals, think of the peer pressure in college involving drugs, binge drinking, and indiscriminate sex. If you have concerns about privacy, know that privacy will be lost until they graduate or drop out. If concerned about money, you, they, or both, will be tens of thousands of dollars poorer or in debt, with no guarantee of a higher paying job.

 

Instead, teach your children to be self-employed, with privacy, anonymity, common decency, and respect, as successful businesspersons at a young age. Invest a small part of the cost of a college education in their first business while they are still in high school. Encourage and support them while you give them something better to do with their free time. With their business income as the lure to help them buy their own first car, you can keep them from hanging with the wrong crowd, doing drugs, wasting time on video games, etc. Help them move into their own first home or apartment funded by their own income rather than wasting time to go off to college. Make sure they can support you in the style to which you’ve become accustomed in your old age! … Do you think I’m joking?

 

OK … I’m going to confess … I’m a college dropout!

 

I’m glad I did not waste more time and money than I did on a college education … worse yet … I’m even proud of it!
