Homeschooling or public school which one would you do?

Homeschooling is not necessarily detrimental to social skills as that entirely depends what your other activities are. If you are out playing sports, in a band, or whatever, you should be fine, but if you are at home all the time then it can be bad.

Or church groups and sunday school.

Seriously, that is actually true. Although that can be limiting.

In Canada, I highly recommend public school, in America, private could potentially be better. Homeschooling can be a good thing too, I know that I was homeschooled in grade 2 and it was a very very good thing for me. My brother was homeschooled from grade 4 to grade 6 and that was an even better thing for him. However, we both played hockey in winter and I played soccer in summer and he played baseball so we weren't lacking social interaction.

On a side note, many homeschooling programs have a single day of class per week which brings homeschoolers together and gives them a school environment and can be a good way to go. Other programs let the parents teach certain subjects, but have actual classes for others.

Catholic school, biatchzes. diva

But I personally wouldn't want to go to a public school, though I do know of some that are really good. And they're government-funded too. Lucky bastards.

Inleast some of you argee with homeschooling and please don't use that excuse for me not knowing how to spell.I can spell just like you guys!Let's stay on topic and no more name calling or anything!Thanks,jm

Homeschooling is very dangerous and not as productive as public education, even private.

How is it dangers?jm

Instilling radical ideologies in children.

And as you so wonderfully demonstrate...poor grammar.

I should never had even ask.If you don't know someone who is homeschool then you can't really judge now can you?jm

im sure there are successes in homeschooling...probably many. none that i know of though.

Home School isn't all that bad. There are pros and cons.

This is exactly what we are talking about. If it were only your spelling it probably wouldn't be so bad.

But you:
- said "Inleast" instead of "At least".
- state that you "can spell just like you guys!" when you can clearly not (or choose not to which is much worse.
- accuse people of attacking you when you cannot realize that by using yourself as an example that you set yourself up for such a response.

These are products of an uneducated, or ill-educated mind.

Again, It's fricken' "dangerous". The Fricken' word is in the post directly before yours. Is it laziness or stupidity? This is not an insult but a question to which I would love to know the answer .

HOME-SCHOOLED! And you should never have asked if you didn't want an answer. And yes, we can judge as you are an ambassador to homeschooling and a miserable one at that.

I did not want an answear about myself being homeschooled only if you would pick being homeschooled or going to public school.Not everything I post is all about me you know!Now that is off my chest!Shall we go on?jm

There would not have been legislation allowing a lot of those people to have a public education.

Maybe back in the day... today though at least in America, statistically speaking, the majority of home schooled children come from Evangelical or very religious households. These children only learn what their parents want them to learn; basically raising close-minded drones.

As noted, public school teaches children social skills that they will need in life and to be part of a larger society.

Oh I agree that lots of it is shit. But with reasonable standards it can be great.

But most home-schooled kids are weird... c'mon you know it...
