I hate that so many people think homeschooling means my parents are the ones teaching me everything. When I was younger they did, but now in high school I learn from textbooks, online classes, and even community college. For myself and most homeschoolers I know, homeschooling doesn't mean your parents teach you, it just means that YOU get to control your own education instead of the public schools. I think that control and freedom is one of the greatest benefits of being homeschooled.

한진환 how would you find out someone’s aptitude in a subject then? You need this information to see whether they should go up a set, do they need extra support, and which areas they need to focus on.

It is completely false that if a parent homeschools, that they have to be an expert in all these different areas. With libraries, the Internet, and homeschool groups and co-ops and classes, and with the fact that many homeschooled kids naturally learn to take initiative for their own learning, a parent is not actually a “teacher” in the traditional sense of dispensing knowledge, but more the facilitator supporting the child’s learning how to learn. I know families who homeschooled their kids all the way until they went off to college, and so for the high school years, the kids were basically taking various community college classes based on their interests and needed college requirements. So parents, don’t believe this lie!

[@TheLuci915]

1. More students in the class means less attention to your needs. 2. They teach things that will never be needed instead of how to do taxes, fill out a job app., basic first aid etc 3. You get less time to talk to people, considering you have to raise your hand to talk and can barely touch each other when it's not lunch or recess (which goes away in middle school). This makes it even less ideal for socialization than homeschooling. 4. There's a lot of outlets for homeschoolers that you can't do if you're going to school from 9-3. 5. I personally think my own mother has a lot more insight on what I need to be learning than a stranger who just happens to have a degree in something. 6. Homeschoolers are encouraged to go outside and they do. Unlike public schoolers who don't go to recess, barely do anything in P.E. and spend most of their time studying when outside of school. 7. If your child is smarter than the average 5th grader (haha), they may be better suited to doing online courses or being tutored, rather than being forced to take "special" classes that taught my sister how to use Twitter???? or moving up a grade or two and being the weirdo of the class.

[@CrystalBluesky]

"Parents have to be damn talented in order to homeschool their kids." Not really. I mean- there are things called tutors, the internet, and skillshare websites. The only things that are necessary to homeschool your kids is the willpower, the mindset, and the flexibility to come at problems and situations at different angles. Money definitely helps if you have that bonus. "What about socialization?" I have no idea where people get this idea where the majority of homeschoolers live under ROCKS for their lives, but I can reassure you that we DON'T. There are internet forums, support groups, co-ops, religious gatherings, youth groups, community activities, and sports that your child can get involved in. Most of my homeschooling friends are probably some of the most socially active people that I know. I can barely get an email or a call from them on a regular basis. (And yes- some of us actually CALL our friends rather than hide from our phones when we get an incoming call) If the only reason why you don't want to homeschool your kid is because you're afraid they're going to end up a hermit.... just don't. 99% of us turn out okay. Which I'd reason is a better percentage than the kids that go to public school.

[@ConspiracySmurf]

Exactly. All you have to do is WANT to do it and choose a different route. You can pick one or more people in your life to teach/mentor your kid their unique skills , etc. There are so many resources. The whole world is a resource. Once kids step into school and become little soldier prisoners their options become severely limited. They are not nurtured or made to feel special and unique. They are told to dress alike, talk alike, raise their hand, be on time, walk in a line and keep your head down and mouth shut.

[@CrystalBluesky]

Right! There's so much room for growth and exploration when you're homeschooled. There are literally no downsides to homeschooling this day and age. Now the only reason why homeschooling isn't a good option for people is because they physically can't be there for their children (single parents working multiple jobs), or it's due to the personalities of the parents and the children.

[@jasonpeng5798]

well, what grade are you? trust me, you don't want to be homeschooled past grade 7. i'm a junior applying to college, and i'll give you a little briefing on why homeschooling is bad past grade 7 if you wanna read. --By grade 7, often parents wont have the skill and time necessary to fully teach a good foundation to kids, and kids won't have the self-discipline to learn it themselves. While skillshare sites sound appealing, you are practically self learning without any assessments, making it hard to keep on schedule (unless your self-discipine is very good), and if you have a concept that the sites don't explain clearly, there is nobody to look to. and if you're rich enough to pay for tutors, you might as well go to a good private school. Also, you wants kids to have at least 2 years to assimilate into the school environment before highschool, when they MUST be in school. colleges will look at home schooled kids as jokes, and having one year in homeschool in your highschool years will be extremely detrimental. You won't be able to take AP courses, your GPA will suffer, and your 9th grade grades will not count. In most cases of private colleges, like Carnegie Mellon, Emory, Northwestern, NYU, etc., one highschool year in homeschool is enough for a college an admissions counselor to laugh and throw your application into the trash, no matter how impressive your other years are. Schools also give kids the opportunity to participate in academic competitions or extracurricular teams, which colleges look at very highly. I was private schooled from grades 8-11, and I really do think it paid off a lot. I didn't even study for my ACT and only studied 4 days for my SAT, and got full scores. private schools also give kids more opportunities, like college counselors, and they take of your kid just like a parent would. The environment is friendly and positive, and since the class sizes are so small, the community is very tight-knit. if you are indeed paying for tutors, i'd argue a private school is a much better bet. sure, i guess you'll turn out "OK," and you'll be able to go to a local state/city university that already has a high acceptance rate, and you'll be able to get a mediocre occupation. but if you really want to excel, homeschooling doesn't provide that platform.

[@CrystalBluesky]

@Jason Peng I've already graduated, and I haven't stepped foot inside of a school. I think it really depends on each person's interpretation of the word "excell." Now a lot of this, as I've said before, hinges a lot on the parents' and the kids' personalities. And it all depends on what you want to do as a career. I'm personally an artsy person- music, writing, and art was always at the heart and soul of everything that I've done. The creative world has been rapidly evolving to the point to where as long as your portfolio is good and you can work well with a team or in a timely fashion, saying that you've gone to college is just a bonus on your resume. For some people, going to college is essential for the line of work they want to enter into. For me- if I can do it without going into debt, then that's something I'll consider. The only things I'd gain in college is experience working in multiple styles (which is something I'm already currently doing), MAYBE how to work a decent program on a computer, a fancy paper saying that I've spent years working in the subject of art, and a few connections. And sure. There are colleges that look at homeschooler's applications, scoff, and pitch them out the window. But once again- the work environment is rapidly changing. There are multiple companies and colleges who are specifically hunting for homeschoolers because they know that they're most likely getting a valuable asset once they find one. ...that is IF they decide to go the usual college and job route. I think your advice might be good for someone who's looking to get into the college of their dreams. However, for someone like me, college is "meh" and not a priority.

[@jennifermcglynn6698]

Amen!!! And as well as tutors, ect... if you homeschool through a public charter school, then you have a ES(Education Specialist; they are required to have a Masters degree in at least one Core subject) to help you select curriculum that is not only appropriate for your child’s grade, but meets state standards. They also help your high school bound students decide on courses that will put them either into a 4 year university or a community college, help you to get them enrolled into those college courses (double unit points in CA!!) that are required for graduation AND work towards their college goals!. And the “Socialization” crap!! Not only are there the religious programs, but Scouts, Civil Air Patrol(CA Wing, Beale Composite Squad 19!!), ROTC, 4-H, FFA, Homeschool Meetup groups for field trips & Park Days, Archery, Music Lessons, and yes... they can join the local public school alethic teams. My oldest daughter will be graduating this fall(and yes, she will walk the stage at her graduation ceremony!). She has been to 2 different proms, is a full time Archery coach for our local school district, is a published author, has a second job cleaning houses(has more money in her checking account then my husband and my self!!), plays the piano, and is fluent in Spanish, Sign Language, and is now learning Japanese with her 12 year old sister. She attends youth services at our church and also volunteers during the summer as an archery coach for the local Scouts Day Camps. And yes, she has a boyfriend, goes to various concerts with him and her father, is proficient with not only bows but with firearms as well, and just got her 1st tattoo. That she paid for. Now my 12 year old daughter is the scary one. She taught herself how to play the guitar and piano(before we started lessons). She is also active in Youth and has attended several concerts with her dad and sister. She is a Cadet Airman 1st Class in the Civil Air Patrol, is working on her pilots license, and her personal goal is to become a Cadet Staff Sargent by 15. She does volunteer work, with her Squad, for several Veterans groups. She is an amazing artist, and can identify edible plant life while driving down the road. She passed(with solid A’s) college level Algebra and General Sciences. She (and her sister) can read a 500 page book in a day. She’s been teaching herself Japanese(lessons start in the fall), Calligraphy, knitting/crocheting, and Geology. She is also fluent in Sign. She has been working on various forms of swimming this summer in order to try out for our local competitive team, and will be joining a debate team this fall as well. She has been in archery since she was nine, has 10/20 vision, so she is a insane shot! We discovered that she also is a natural at throwing knives (thanks to her uncle). And can not only build you a gun rack, but also reload ammo for your gun, safely tear said gun down, clean it, load it, and probably go get your 12 course dinner for you without going anywhere near a supermarket!!

[@alisoncarlisle84]

Okay, so first of all, homeschoolers are NOT unsocialized. In fact, I would even say that we're better socialized than traditionally schooled students, because we daily interact with all age groups, not just our peers and immediate family. Second, you don't have to teach your kid everything yourself!! There are TONS of resources and curriculums out there for parents who want to homeschool. For example, my mom is not a math person, so when I started high school math, I used a DVD, textbook and workbook set instead. Third, taking your kid out of traditional schools does NOT mean they will no longer see their friends. Your child has plenty of opportunities to see their friends at other times, such as after school, on the weekends, etc. Fourth, one of the best advantages (in my experience) of homeschooling is being able to work at your own pace, meaning you can slow down when certain subjects are hard, and speed up when something is easy. You don't have to keep pace with the rest of a class. As Tim Hawkins once said, "We think homeschoolers are unsocialized, but then you go to public/private school, and what do you get in trouble for? /Socializing/." Edit: Also, on the issue of missing prom. There are co-op proms, local homeschool proms, and about a hundred other proms your child can attend.

When I see those comments (that trash talk home school without proper grammar), I just ignore them and move on. (While thinking to myself what life they'll have since those comments usually come from people who attend public school.) I'm not home schooled myself so I am not a reliable source of information but I am open to it due to the videos I watch and the websites I look at. The thing is, the public school system in my local area is actually pretty good. We still deal with the traditional issues but our teachers are well paid and most of them actually grow attached to their students. Still, if I had a chance, I would have picked home school over public school simply because it worked for a lot more people. The main reason why home school gets so much negativity surrounding it is the wrong information being spread, people tending to believe everything on the Internet, and other things about people. It's not a difference between public school and home school honestly. We need to focus on improving our public schools in the first place and admit that both methods have pros and cons. It's just ironic that the people who claimed that public school is better have horrible reasoning and absolutely no evidence.

[@Ravenomics]

@@lyssalouise2705 Starting from HS is very difficult and depending on where you live not even possible. My advice would be to not worry about High School and instead try out some college classes from a nearby community college. Many offer free classes to High School students and the experience from a community college if you take online lessons will be similar to regular homeschooling but of course will be more difficult. If it's free, sign up for one lesson see how you like being on your own and in charge of your work. Sadly there is no easy way to move from highschool to homeschool. If your parents had started you in middle school it could have more easily worked out. The only really possible option is to transfer to a charter that allows work from home. By starting out with college classes you will be way further ahead then most people and will have more time to discover what you do and don't like. This is my advice, from someone who never went to a public school and did just that in highschool and now am transferring to state.

@@tashan4932 Take a college class. If you have a local college check if they offer free classes to HS students.

I've been a teacher over a decade and have noticed a few things. In a classroom full of 20 kids, two or three invariably slow things down and distract everyone else. At home school, this wouldn't necessarily transpire. The lone teacher can give individual attention. With two dozen kids, the attention is lopsided to the troublemakers and slower students, which in turn, slows down progress. A significant determination if a child performs well, however, is if the parent pays attention and takes an interest.

[@thoryan946]

You know what? I actually blame the public school system as the reason why I have social anxiety today. Well actually I wouldn't blame all of the public school system, but my local French public school system. The education was actually pretty good, but their French language policies were garbage and caused me more harm than good. The policy at my French school board was to always speak French, which is good, but the way they punished you was cruel. Basically we had a French festival once a month where we'd play little games across all of the classrooms, which was pretty fun, but in order to participate in the festival, you needed these tickets. The way the tickets worked was that you started out with 3 tickets every month after the end of a festival. You can't gain those tickets back, you can only lose them, and you would lose them by getting caught speaking English anywhere at the school. The teachers thought of this as a way to promote the children to speak more French, but it did way more harm to me than good... You see I was only 5 years old and I was growing up in a bilingual household, so I didn't know how to properly express my thoughts in French all of the time. I would express my thoughts in both languages, but whenever I would get caught expressing them in English to my peers then I would get punished for it. The teachers and teachers' assistants wouldn't even really help you with what you were trying to say either. The main focus wasn't that you weren't speaking French, but that you lost the ticket, and you felt like shit for it afterwards. The way I took it was that I lost an opportunity to have fun with my peers because I was just trying to express my thoughts as a five year old. And when you're five you can't really explain it to your parents either, it just leaves a mental impact on you. As a child you just try and cope with it with the most stupid methods ever. Watch out for the teachers, so you can say what you were trying to say in English. That started me on the paranoia train, then it went to how do I say what I'm thinking in French to the teacher, when I don't know how to say it. I can't say what I'm trying to say in English to them because I'll just get punished for speaking English. Eventually the pressure built up too much and I stopped talking at school because it was too difficult to keep track of everything as a child. You become paranoid in class because if the teacher picks you to answer the question and you're not able to do it in French then you get punished for it. I completely stopped talking at school after that. Then my social anxiety evolved into another monster after that point. Maybe I would believe that I'm inclined to have social anxiety, but actually my social game outside of school is pretty good. I have no problem expressing my thoughts in a casual area, and actually I get too chatty, but the minute I'm in any professional environment, my social confidence is gone. I love being bilingual and the perks it gave me, but I think I would have benefited from being home schooled for the first few years of my life. School didn't help my social skills, they only made them worse and the best social skills I learned were from outside of that crooked system. So when I have children someday, I'd like to have them home schooled during their elementary days because of my experience. It'll be a challenge, but I'm a person that likes a challenge and benefits from it. Although this all depends on what my kids want to do. And now let my comment be buried in the sea of comments because I spent too much time on this bullshit. :P

Why does everyone think that a school is the only place kids congregate or socialize.

Kids that are homeschooled go to extra classes like martial arts, art, music, dance, sports...plus hanging out with kids in the extended family, their church, neighborhood or community. Older kids can get a job, start a little business or take college classes at the local community college. Homeschooled students are being actively sought out by universities and employers now. I homeschooled mine, they graduated college and have successful businesses and careers. I did it while I worked a full time job and ran a home business. You can teach/learn 24 hours a day.

I've seen a lot of interesting and new discourse surrounding homeschooling, and I have to say that I am convinced.

I remember being in 4th grade and working on "6th grade math" just to relearn it again when I got to sixth grade. When I moved to a different state during middle school, the standards were different. Material I learned in 4th grade was at 6th grade level. In 6th grade, we were doing coloring homework and crossword puzzles. I remember being angry and annoyed with my education. I had to retake classes that I didn't need to retake for no reason. I took geometry in ninth grade, and when I transferred schools, they had this program called the integrated math program and put me into integrated level 2. I approached my school counselor, math teacher, and math department head that I already took this class but they denied me the ability to switch to a higher math. I was finishing my school work early and stuck waiting in a classroom until class officially ended. I finished all that was required for graduation requirements but was discouraged from leaving school at an earlier time (to go to work or take college classes) because I was told that universities would not look at me. And the social scene was just horrible!! I was exposed to people that self harmed, sold drugs, and partied like crazy! And this began in middle school! I feel like the public school system really held me back...

As someone who was homeschooled from 4-12th you don't have to be qualified or know many subjects to home school your kid. All you need is motivation for both child and parent, and a good book.

I think it depends on how the parents teach their kid and how well they teach them. School has failed me in every way to teach me anything that actually sticks with me or that's interesting. That's the biggest problem with education. They cram useless knowledge you won't remember after a week so the test scores look good. I've had teachers purposely give us correct answers to tests because of it. It's a competitive market, and people are greedy. I've taught myself more by simply just reading and learning things in books or informationional articles. Hell, even CYBER CHASE taught me more math in 20 minutes than an entire school week !!

[@CrittingOut]

UsoppFanGirl Maybe it's just you? I have no problems retaining knowledge expecially not math.

[@CrittingOut]

UsoppFanGirl Also it isn't useless knowledge. You clearly have no grasp on what you are learning and why you are learning it.

[@jasonpeng5798]

obviously you don't pay attention in class. also, they give you a textbook, just read it and stop complaining. a single textbook is enough to learn from. school is fine. just because you have some bad teachers doesn't mean the entirety of the schooling system is shit. nobody who goes to a good college like and Ivy or good private college comes out of homeschool.

[@ninja1inblack105]

Oh, back to the whole homeschool vs public school... I am homeschooled. I am super focused on what I want to do (videography and audio engineering) Chances are your parents are not teachers... So my parents use online school for me which is sooooo amazing. Anyways I am only taking the 4 core classes, my mom knows I hate school so I am currently taking economics instead of history and personal financial literacy instead of math. The school day is super short (only about 4 hours) which gives me time to snowboard every other day and maintain my videography career. I’m 16 and currently own a business while other people usually start paying $30k/year for collage or are out socializing with other children XD

[@betterert]

ikr, i learn alot more from vsauce and things than in public school. im going to 7th grade, and i like algebra, as math is one of my passions, and i guess history is sort of important too, but if i can comprehend high school and college level texts according to the tests you gave me, and Honors classes aren't that challenging, can you make a third set of classes for the kids who do REALLY well in the hard classes? i literally understood linear equations in a school day or 2. honestly, sometimes i think about being self-educated by taking online classes or something. and what's annoying too, is the fact that social barriers exist in skipping grades. if they didn't, and i could be taught online, i TOTALLY would be.

Then other more family related.. ValleyFair any time time allows not dictated by school schedules. Family vacations any time anywhere around the world if desired, get togethers, reunions. Beaches, volunteering at animal shelter, We host/attend community gardening events such as training and garden management/care. I have taught all our kids how to repair thier own cars, so now they are helping thier friends, and thier friends friends. I could go on for many pages. This is just a small set of the more common or long term things my kids have been social with. They have MORE real life social activity than standard public schoolers who are in an environment full of click, artificial meme driven cultures.

As a 13 year old homeschooled child who is doing a GCSE in psychology, geography and classical history this year as well as being part of a youth circus troupe, I personally think homeschooled is better for me. There are two extremes in the community, being obsessed with academic work and doing no academic work. Its quite interesting watching the two types clash and watching them in study meets ect... Really it depends on the adults, their mindset and how well they organise the week, yes you need structure. Personally I feel like I can think more freely, understand people better as well as speak my own mind, which I'm often told to shut up for anyway.

[@FrankieHiltz]

Regardless of this argument, public education really needs to change it's ways. There needs to be less time spent on arbitrary math and history, and a little more focus on just general adulting. Of course, keep the basics of all subjects we normally experience, but leave the heavier stuff for college. Give us a bit more insight on getting a job, doing taxes, food preservation, budgeting, etc. I know a lot of those things are built into some of the subjects already, but you'll get like one assignment out of a hundreds on determining something like net/gross income, but rather on focusing how that affects your adult life, you just do more adding and subtracting. Breezing passed what the lesson SHOULD be.

[@jasonpeng5798]

i hope you do realize "arbitrary math" is required in 60% of the job market, and engineers, which make up 40% of the stem market, avg 150k+ a year. not to mention medical specialists, which avgs 400k+ a year. i'd argue getting a job of 400k a year is way better than learning how to do your taxes, which can be resolved with a few youtube videos.

Jason Peng, As someone who has been sought to help struggling students, I can tell you that these requirements are not worth the struggle to every student, especially when they are more cut out for the other 40% of the job market. And every time you are requiring one thing that a particular kid doesn't really need, you are keeping him/her from something else that could be far more valuable. Really, a lot of it is the worship of certain kinds of intelligence over others.

[@Deuteronomy-uw8ls]

High School really needs a different approach to graduation not every child needs to graduate with the goal of going to college affect most of them don't. They need to graduate and go into a construction apprenticeship or go to trade school for welding or electrician or Plumbing. These are jobs that are not being filled that are very, very much needed that make a good wage. Our high schools are so focused on getting our kids graduating and into a college but no one is considering that these skilled labor jobs are necessary and not getting filled. There are more jobs available then unemployed people to fill them and the majority of them are in these skilled labor categories that either require an apprenticeship or trade school and not College. We need to bring back the old system where a child depending on their skill set either started training for trade or training for college depending on their skill set and their interest. Not everyone should go to college I really wish when I had finished high school there had been seamstress classes, sewing classes available to learn how to upholster furniture and sew a lot of different items from purses to making and altering clothing. I'm learning on my own through books and KZbin and trial and error it would have been really nice to have some skilled teachers to guide me and I'm hoping to be able to offer these subjects in classes to kids in the future.

This if false: "You also have to be the kind of parent who fully understands subjects such as physics, chemistry, calculus, the industrial revolution, and at the same time, be able to decipher some great works of literature or know how to write a compelling short story." And the rest after that is utterly silly, including the statement "you must be damn talented if you want to homeschool kids." The parent only has to be talented/intelligent enough to do some of the following: order some printed curricula, be willing to switch to different curricula if one isn't working for one or more subjects, know how to watch some youtube videos or read blogs/articles, sign up for some online classes, exchange homeschool class favors with another homeschooling parent differently talented, sign up for a homeschooling co-op, have the child's other parent or aunt/cousin/grandfather teach one class, or pay for a tutor for a strategic subject. If the parent knows how to learn, he can teach his child how to learn, and knowing all of it himself isn't necessary.

I mean, most accountants don't use trig or calculus day-to-day, I'm sure. Not to say that there aren't workarounds, but I think it's a poor response to the criticism. I think the real travesty is having the same teacher for 90% of your schooling, especially in subjects like English, that rely on the interpretation of text. One teacher would struggle to represent multiple experiences, and because your teacher is your mom, she likely already has an experience similar to yours. It just seems stifling. You don't even have a classroom of students who can bring their own experiences.

[@michaelalynne2380]

My mother pulled me out of school in 2nd grade, we were currently in one of the best school districts in the country as well! since then I have tried many curriculums including Abeka. we finally settled on a program called Classical Conversations. This program is very intense, you meet with a class and tutor once a week where your teacher essentially briefs/lectures you on everything you are required to learn for the week. After that everything is left up to you, whether you get your work done or not is your responsibility. Many homeschoolers have acquired an amazing time management skill as well as growing independence. The final years of high school through this curriculum are so rigorous they are often counted as college. In fact most CC students graduate highshcool with an associates degree. Many colleges including King's College in New York City will grant you almost $24,000 scholarship money JUST for graduating the program! While Homeschooling is not for everyone it opens a realm of possibilities for both the students academics and social life! Most of us have more friends/are more sociable than regular public schooled kids as homeschooling has nothing to do with your social life. In fact there are more socially awkward kids in public school as apposed to homeschool meaning it has nothing to do with your education rather your personality/ability to approach others.

The “I don’t know the answer, let’s figure it out together” attitude is one of the best things to instill in a child. In homeschooling, this is modeled naturally every day. You don’t need to be an expert in every subject to teach your child. You just need to be willing to learn alongside them. And when a subject proves too difficult - perhaps chemistry isn’t your cup of tea - you sign the child up for an online class or have him attend a chem class in a co-op.

One huge homeschool topic not mentioned in this is the co-ops that are becoming increasingly more popular, where homeschooling families get together so that parents who can't teach certain subjects (like sciences, robotics, coding, sports, history, musical instruments, etc, etc) can have the option of other parents teaching their kids them.

Here’s the opinion of someone who was homeschooled. I was homeschooled all throughout elementary, middle and highschool. I’ve done 3 semesters at my community college so far. I would say my social life was more active/diverse than most of my public school friends. Is this the case for most homeschoolers? Idk. I’ve met my fair share of awkward homeschoolers, because when you’re homeschooled, you typically do small school groups to cover material that your parents cannot teach. By the time we were graduating, it was difficult to tell the difference between homeschooled kids and public schoolers based on social interactions. There’s definitely a difference, but it’s usually subtle. Overall I’m glad that I was homeschooled because it let me pursue learning in a way that I enjoyed. This is probably the reason homeschoolers score higher on average. I think there’s is a large difference in how I look at school and the public schoolers I’ve met. While many people complain, I look forward to learning. It confuses me how so many people can go to a school that they pay for and not care at all for what they’re learning

I really, truly frickin' hate that weak and pathetic excuse that the reason why most parents don't have their kids homeschooled is that they want their children to socialize with other children their age---it's nothing but absolute utter bullcrap! When I attended public school, the only form of socialization that I got was nothing but getting bullied constantly from elementary school to middle school (middle school being the worst of all). So, when I was getting bullied during my high school years and was going through huge amounts of depression, anxiety, and self-esteem issues, my mom finally took me out and had me homeschooled and I did way better. Mainly because I could concentrate on my schoolwork due to having privacy and working at my own pace. Plus when I was in public school, I didn't even care about making friends or being popular since I was a super shy child since I was little and I already serious trust issues due to my mom being an authoritarian parent. Along with me not giving a dang about going to my homecoming dance or my junior/senior prom because I'm not a party girl. And besides, the real why most parents don't want to homeschool their kids is really because they believe that it's not their job to educate their children. And they don't want to spend quality time with their kids either.

Oh and I took up skateboarding as my sport, she taught me how to work on house since she was a realtor, and I graduated from high school at the age of 13 though the board of education! Lived the retirement life for a short moment started owning my own properties at the age of 18 and since then have owned more the 9 properties! So Yeah THE HOMESCHOOLED LIFE IS THE BEST LIFE AND I WOULD NEVER CHANGE ANYTHING ABOUT IT!!! AND I WILL BE HOMESCHOOLING MY KIDS TOO!

Alexis Giles that's awesome! You have a beautiful mother god bless.

Pretty funny stuff. I'm a homeschooler and actually there are distance learning options where your child can go through a guided curriculum online. You don't have to know all those subjects. I don't use such programs but plenty of people love them. Also, there's homeschooling groups/co-ops for socialization. They are diverse and work extremely well.

[@dennisahdaniel9573]

The funny thing is that all of the concerns about homeschool can be fixed by hiring tutors for the subject the parents are weak in and putting the kids in social activities like sports, creative classes, dance, home school social groups for field trips, public playgrounds etc.

[@hannah8406]

y’all better not forget homeschool groups, homeschoolers socialize enough.

[@theuniverse3782]

You r not socialising with different people You are socialising with people who don't meet people who are not home schooled I think homeschooling is a bad idea And parents are for sure not experienced enough to teach, that's why there's a qualification to become a teacher

[@radpechi]

You. Smooth. Boi. Your ad transitions are so *DAMN* smooth I get genuinely impressed and it doesn't even ruin the video mood.

I am 18 and now I have been in college for over a year. Started shortly before turning 17. Homeschooling was the best thing that has happened to me. It has given me the ability to become a pilot and easily achieve that due to how much my mother taught me. I was very social and we were that way using Co-ops which including alot of children and teens just like me. When I mean alot I mean over a hundred easily. In order to be able to still get a good curriculum my mom used one of the two nationally recognized curriculum which is accepted by all 8 elite universities. These are Seton homeschool, and Calvert. Seton being catholic and Calvert being non-catholic. I used seton. It took me 5 hours a day for the same amount of days as normal public school children go but it wasnt interrupted by noisy children or breaks waiting for everyone to be done. I started at 5th grade and came from a private school. I hands down think it is the best decision. There are many types of homeschoolers and some that dont do anything but as a mother you choose what your child social life will be and this is done by alot of time looking for places your child can join. It isnt a easy job. It consumed my mothers days and night, sitting up submitting our work to the people at seton but it payed off for her. If you have any questions feel free to dm me here

[@jasonpeng5798]

homeschooled kids learn worse, have less discipline, and colleges dont take anybody who was homeschooled in high school seriously.
