Homeschooling or public school which one would you do?

I went to school all my life till I got to tenth grade had trouble at the local highschool and homeschooled for my last two years of highschool.
I found homeschooling to be alot more challaging and my sister and I would go to a friend house every day and do our work there.I also learn to speak spanish in my classes.
Also I was a loner so that worked out for me to be homeschooled as well.What do you guy's think is the con and pros of both homeschooling and public schools?Jm 🙂

You found homeschooling more challenging? Girl, you can't even spell one sentence correctly.

Keep this up and I will report you.Jm

i dont think you're being honest here JM.
homeschool or not you still have to pass the HSPT to get a diploma.
they dont just hand you a diploma because you pinky swear that you've been working and studying.

btw, will there be a book released soon? if so i would like an authographed hard-cover.

Jackie, you brought up the topic of home schooling, and you used yourself as the example. You have no reason to report anything.

Bardock made an excellent point. Your grammar is atrocious, your spelling is horrendous, on on more than one occasion you have shown your powers of deductive reasoning and problem solving abilities to be less then sub par. Your post in and of itself testifies to the problems with homeschooling.

You also called yourself a loner and reasoned that because of that homeschooling was better for you. It probably did more harm than good as your social skills, more than likely, are much less developed than people who actually attend an educational institution with other people. You have willfully lessened your exposure to other people, cultures, schools of thought and social interaction in general.

Yea you graduate just like everyone else.It depends on what program you use!I used " The school of tomorrow" a christen homeschooling program by mom and my friend's mom taught us and corrected our books. Also they test you first and see where you are at.So you are not getting work that is not too easy or too hard which is a good thing.jm

though that is sadly not the point I was trying to make. As I have talked to intelligent, even exceeding people that were homeschooled. I think it is not necessarily the way you get taught, but...well, the way you are.

I couldn't have asked for better examples to prove my point than what has occurred since my last post.

Public School all the way...

I find that people who are Homeschooled find it much harder to relate to other people as well as form relationships with those they do not know.

Also in Public School you are exposed to so many diverse ways of thinking (atleast in diverse schools), and not isolated to one mind set like you would be in Homeschooling, especially a Christian homeschooling program.

But...the academic level can be very, very, very low...

I think I've found a reason not to be home schooled just from adarksidejedi's posts. Someone who was on a Christian home schooling programme, and, cannot even spell the word Christian is not an ideal ambassador.

It can be low with public schooling as well, that makes no difference at all..

Public schooling has it downsides, but it's still way better then homeschooling. At least it teaches you social skills and gets you into contact with somewhat different cultures.

By "corrected" do you mean "burned".

Did you only have one textbook for all of your classes, and was that book the bible?

If so, you got cheated horribly, and it explains a good deal about why you post the way you do.

T-that's what I said.

I don't think public Schooling is generally to be seen as that great. the teachers can't really focus on the individuals...exceeding students are held back while weak ones are overlooked. there is lots of bullying, etc.

Sure there are pros and cons...it just depends.

While I've always thought that it was detrimental to homeschool children due to the fact that they have a severaly lacking social ability, (at least in my experience) going to a public school is not really that much better. While you learn in both situations, at home you learn only what your parents want you to know and in public school you're indoctrinated in a method of interaction that develops your interpersonal skills for the rest of your life. This isn't always a good thing.

I've found there are three major reasons to homeschool a child. 1) The child suffers from severe social problems: retardation, personality disorders, etc. 2) The schools are teaching logical thinking and the parents don't want to clutter their childs mind with nonsense such as evolution. 3) The child's behavior is such that the schools don't want them there because they're a disruption to the other children.

And then again, in the case of some it's all three. *ahem*

Speaking to Jackie though, I would be interested in knowing why a Jew would teach their children a christian curriculum.
