When my wife and I decided to homeschool our kids, we were met with opposition from other Christians who thought we should enroll them in public schools. One argument we often heard was that our children could be a witness for Jesus in public schools. Ironically, these same Christians who didn't evangelize in their workplaces expected our kids to evangelize in school. However, the Bible doesn't explicitly say that children must be evangelists. Instead, it emphasizes the importance of honouring and obeying parents, which Paul talks about in his letter to the Colossians.
