Is homeschooling a good idea?

Simplest solution is to go someplace more sane than the US. Send your kids to a nice public school in the UK.

>> No.10734881

>>10734858
no

the benefits of a more "rigorous" curriculum do not outweigh the arrested social development

children need, first and foremost even before education, to be socialized, no matter how dismal the current state of society may be. homeschooling is inherently anti-social and your children will be considered freaks (with good reason)

the point is to Integrate your child into whatever the current society happens to be. the modern world does not facilitate anything outside of it's conventions, no matter how banal or fettering those may be. and once outside reintegration is nearly impossible if the fundamental points of development are absent

i know that not every homeschooled kid fails. my older brother who was also homeschooled graduated law school last year and got married, bought a house, found a job etc. but he is still an awkward fuck and does not have nor ever has had any social life beyond his work.

the majority of homeschooled kids end up extremely stunted because of it and the homeschooling community itself borders on a cult

Send your kid into a system directly responsible for the decay of society, and he/she will grow up to watch society further decay, but at least they'll have friends. Then it's rinse/repeat with their children.

I know homeschoolers, and I've studied it for a project in uni. I'm going to need at least two sources on this, because I'm pretty sure it's straight bullshit.

Just stereotypes that exists about homeschoolers. On average they are just as social, integrate slightly better into society, and do significantly better in college.

>The Grammar stage begins around age 5. In this stage, the child is in a "parrot" stage of repeating what they are told. This phase sees them enjoying simple songs over and over, so songs, rhymes and memory aid teach the basics of reading, writing, numbers and math, and observational science.

Some schools will also teach a Christian Catechism while students are in this phase, as foundation for intensive study of the texts and structures of the Bible.

homeschooling is fine and actually ideal until age 9 or 10. This is generally the point of no return for life long mental conditioning of an individual human. But if you're keeping them from school past that age you're doing it wrong, they need to get adjusted to hierarchical systems and establish valuable connections within that system because it emulates social life in the workforce and adult life in general. Plus you're kid has to learn the value of competition and how he does against others in the class not in the walls of his room.

I don't know how to feel about it, I know numerous people studying education about to become high school teachers who have an actual disdain for the canon, or anything written by "old white dudes." I thought that was a meme but there will probably come a time (if it's not already now) where the Odyssey and Great Gatsby and Crime and Punishment are discarded for Kaur, John Green, etc. In the words of these students they want works the kids "can actually relate to." Kill me now.

On the other hand though.... all the home school kids I've met have been massive autists with helicopter parents. I guess it's possible to avoid that but I think it's a big risk. But either way you're playing with fire, I want to have children but I would feel kind of sick bringing them into the current state of things, especially if they're going to spend most of their life staring at a screen. I could try to take that away from them too, but again, all the kids I knew growing up whose parents made them eat super healthy and weren't allowed video games and TV grew up extremely messed up and jealous of the other kids. Kids are retarded and want to be cool, it's only natural. If all of society is actively pushing the post-modern techno-capitalist lifestyle on kids from their very first moments I'm not sure what you can do, besides taking your family to a remote cabin where they will grow up to be autists.

I was homeschooled. Granted, in high school I was going to school twice a week for classes (Biola had a youth program where you’d take high school level classes with other students at a satellite campus, despite the affiliation it wasn’t expensive). Honestly looking around at my coworkers and others I meet, I think I’m actually better adjusted than many of my public schooled associates, and I still hang out with a group of guys from high school, 5 years after the fact - we’re still quite close and see each other at least once a week.

However I also know plenty of homeschoolers with severe arrested development. Honestly homeschooling is fine if you actually put in the effort to get your kids involved in socializing multiple times per week. Not just extracurricular activities, but actual classes too.

If/when I have children, I would probably want to either homeschool them or send them to a Jesuit school. I absolutely do not trust the public school system to properly teach my children. I’ve talked to many public schooled people, generally the system seems to churn out idiots who can’t think critically.

It's a statistic that's been wheeled out so many times but here goes again: almost all gun crime in the US is committed with illegally obtained firearms. Mass shootings are often the exception to this which is why they're the perfect fodder for the anti-gun lobby. You've got it all: a mentally disturbed boy who is LITERALLY A WHITE MALE, scary looking "assault rifles," and most importantly, a legally obtained scary "assault rifle." If not don't you think they would be focused on urban gun crime? Nobody cares about that, there's no glamour, no way of fitting it neatly into the 24 hour tragedy news cycle. I don't even like guns honestly but the anti-gun movement has become so hypocritical and hysterical that it's laughable.

Stop pretending like every piece of the bill of rights is self evidently equal in it's importance. The 2nd and 3rd amendments are clearly there for a very specific concern they had at that time and don't have the kind of universality of the ones you're choosing to quote. This is especially stupid since constitutional law is built around discrepancies in interpreting those amendments. People have doing this shit for centuries.

Y'all are both retarded. The second amendment was instituted as a last line of defence against the government going tyrannical, as this was the very thing the founding fathers were seeking to undo. This is why the first is about sharing of ideas in speech. If a political problem can be solved verbally then do so, but if not, it is equally important that people be able to arm themselves against the true evil. Nazi Germany saw this sort of tyranny. I am not going to say that a second amendment there would have entirely prevented this on its own, but the ability to bear arms would have empowered some truly good people living there are the time to fight against the evil while it was rising.

Yes, we are concerned about tyranny like this

Yes, we would consider gun control. In fact we have it now.

No, we don't want a mass gun ban.

Good point. I agree with you here. Most people that homeschool are going to be parents that really care about their child's education, which may in itself explain the various statistics. The only thing I would like to add is that in public schools most kids move at the pace of the slowest learner. Giving a one-on-one education between parent and child can be an excellent solution to this. Then, if a parent really cared, would it not still be better for them to homeschool versus allowing the child to perform even above average in a public school? No teacher is going to give as much attention or care to the child's education as a really good parent would.

I was home schooled for 12 years. This post pretty much sums it up, and basically everyone who sings the praises of home schooling is either 1.) A parent who themselves was not home schooled and doesn’t realize what they’re doing to their children by not allowing them to be around other kids, and 2.) Has no experience with home schooling at all.

It’s pretty telling that basically no one I knew who was home schooled growing up ended up home schooling their own children. I get that it seems like a good idea given the absolute shit of our cultural climate, but you’d be better off finding some private school to put your kids in that doesn’t try to shove weird anti-western ideology down on them.

You guys seem to forget that homeschooled kids are allowed outside of their house. It's not being locked in a basement until you're 18, it's just doing (roughly the same) work at home and with your parents instead of at a public (or private, I know) school with teachers, most of whom don't give two shots about you. You can disagree with your parents about anything you want, but things like math don't require a "viewpoint".

The ideal: a freethinking adult with an education well rooted in both modern science and classical humanities raises his children in a well rounded collective with robust social interchanges, exposure to language and culture, athletic endeavor, and an eventual acceptance to school of their choice.

The reality: a female retard suffering from Dunning-Kruger gets mad at schools making rational choices about their mis-diagnosed with ADHD child's education, takes them out, gives them a sub-par hour or two a day education that they themselves would get middling grades in, and then says fuckit and goes off to mcdonalds and maybe a commercial audition.

It is the reason! As much as I hate boomer-tier arguments like 'it's all mental health' and 'guns don't kill people people do,' this is the elephant in the room nobody wants to address because it would require some serious self reflection on the part of a society which is no longer interested in that but in an endless cycle of stimulation, in which the tragedy porn news cycle is a major part. Guns become the scapegoat, but the truth is much, much uglier. Would it help if we banned "assault rifles?" Maybe. More and more people are becoming alienated from themselves and others and losing themselves in the techno-media dreamscape so the number of mass killings will continue to rise. And people will find a way, if not guns then trucks, knives, maybe even drone bombs. Are we going to ban fertilizer too?

if you’re wealthy you go to private school or excellent near private school public school. all the homeschool kids i met were either spergs or were mixing public and home schooling throughout their life, were attractive, came from wealth and socialite parents so they didn’t suffer. ive yet to meet the latter type who was better educated because of their homeschooling. American schools are bad for working class, lower middle class, middle class and poor people. So, people the right wing hates fundamentally, which makes me giggle thinking about. Here’s my (You) 4u

white public schools in the any area that isn’t upper middleclass are abysmal and while you are correct that niggers and spics lower the scores, white americans are not scoring well compared to their asian and european counterparts at all. White iq has plummeted among the middle and working classes, and so educational attainment has too. White males performance is dropping at a free fall rate. This is among the majority of the pop, the upper middle class and the upper class still dominate the other races except for asians. But, the average white is less intelligent and suffering worse educational conditions. Claiming that white schools are well run is laughable, they’re not at all. I live in an upper middle income state with overwhelming majority whites and asians, the white schools anywhere outside the nicest districts are horrendous

I think the ideal scenario is one of those quaker schools where they adapt the curriculum to suit the individual student's needs. I had a college reading level in the third grade, so you aren't going to tell me public elementary wasn't a complete waste of my time.

Someday when I have children, I want to be sure I can dictate the curriculum. As soon as they can form written sentences I want them writing basic code. I want algebra to be taught as soon as they learn basic letters and numbers, to be coterminous with programming instruction as the topics share synergy. I would replace the majority of early English instruction with Greek, children should not have to be coddled in their native language, and if they do, then they are not worth the effort. Foreign language should be emphasized early, the old High School and College try are too little too late - rarely do they produce fluency. However one can take a native speaker with little classical training as a HS Freshman and drill them to standard, one cannot do so with a foreign language student starting at level 0.

Ultimately the most important factor is whether your parents are involved in your education. You should be spending time with your kid at least every single week going over their assignments, helping them plan, and teaching them any of the concepts or ideas that they don’t understand, don’t leave that shit to the teacher to figure out because any kid who doesn’t get it right away is going to be left by the wayside.

joined late high school, #1 in district, valedictorian, placed state in competitive academic school groups, basically went to school for fun, completely unnecessary. breezed through college. i'm not a particularly gifted guy, just normal. all i did was read books. state school is cancer on your brain.

the social benefits from school are so-so. it isn't as if going to school automatically makes you blossom socially. this is self-apparent but pro-schoolers like to feign ignorance here. the homeschoolers that i know are some of the most socially outgoing people that i've ever met. my social skills blow past the majority of school students. social skills are developed in more ways than just being around other kids. homeschooling builds autonomy and trust in your own ability as an authority.

i can't even remember it all. there's so much stuff to do as a homeschooler if your parents are getting you out. the idea that school = hardship is utter delusion. if your parents keep you in a box, you're in a box. that will fuck you up even if you do go to school. most shit you earn is outside of school. if all you've learned was at school then you've learned nothing

Le homeschooler here

I traded my friends, my relationship and high school drama for that sweet NEET lifestyle without most of the consequences. Ultimately, I believe I made a sacrifice in socialization for my sanity and higher grades, and I'm so fucking grateful.

I initially considered homeschooling as it really my only option for a decent education. I was attending a poor urban public school populated by majority black demographic. Coming from a rural white school, this was a fucking culture shock. I learned to adapt and sort of fit in, but I never felt like I belonged there. There were some white kids but they were dorky weaboos and I felt extremely embarrassed to be associated with them, and I was better off becoming a brotha.

Anyways, it was difficult for me to learn in a disruptive environment. I'm not the best student in the first place but it threw me off so much with the fucking yelling and constant discipline during class. The school tries to sell itself as college prep but lets in every dumb motherfucker who enrolls. The general attitude of not giving shit about learning sort of rubbed off on me as well.

I pushed through it for years and just dealt with it, but at a point I got tired of the same old bullshit. What put the nail in the coffin is when some ultra white-guilt liberal hippy English teacher got hired and started talking about shit like muh white privilege. It's so awkward being the only whie boi in class and your virtue signalling libtard teacher from the rez tries to act woke around the black kids.

Because I'm poor I couldn't afford private school, and the other public shitter was worse than where was I attending. That led me to do homeschooling. Like I said I sacrificed most of my social interactions by doing so, but I think there's plenty of time to build new relationships with people. Getting a job, going to the gym, and just being outside of the house as much as possible helps stave away the negative affects of isolation. Besides, Everyone in high school is fake as fuck and temporary anyways. I'm happy to have had my taste of it but I don't miss it much at all.

The idea that public schooling increases people's social skills is retarded. The vast majority of people have terrible social skills.
