New Harvard Study: Homeschoolers Turn Out Happy, Well-Adjusted, and Engaged

why I’m I not surprised?

@JayJay

You don’t think parents indoctrinate?

Is that a problem?

[SixFoot]

Desperate straws.

@Guilds

What if they are racists? Or communists?

That doesn’t concern you.

@JayJay

They raise their kids…they do not own them.

It’s their kids…not yours.

@JayJay

You teach kids how to think for themselves.

You don’t indoctrinate them.

It’s never good.

Never.

You’re doing it again.

Well, lil Johnny as your dad I am not going to tell you what to think about murder, that’s entirely up to you, let me know what you decide. Same with broccoli.

Sure but they are less likely to be appalled at the ideas they instilled.

What if they have appalling ideas?

Glad to see home schooling works for people. If parents and children can make it work, have at it!

Question about taxes: Do they still have to pay taxes for school they don’t use ?

It may very well have started a grassroots movement. Time will soon tell. I plan to give my kids the option when they complete 8th grade.

My sister partly home schooled her daughter and partly had her do online courses(during the high school years) and she turned out quite well. She is a teacher now.

The sister was quite well qualified to home school her with a Doctorate degree and being a college professor.

Everything is fine so far with our public option, since the class sizes average about 5-7 students (per grade). My son’s class is currently the largest at 12 students. Most of the school admin are ranking members of the local churches, and most of the teachers go to said churches once or twice a week.

It’s a good community. Never saw a hint of common core, CRT, or any of that other BS going on in the urban cattle corrals. The school calls me any time there’s an issue. Homework only involves what the students fail to complete during the work day. Hell, they have 2-3 recesses every day.

Both of my kids attending are straight A students. Son is in the 98th percentile for mathematics. If he wants to become a mechanical engineer when he grows up, he may have to buckle down in his teens and forsake the hormonal cesspool known as high school.

How do you tackle topic of evolution, slavery, civil war in your classes?

Yes. For now.

Like they have a right to the fruits of another man’s labor?

The funny thing about this; it was Harvard.

Then they likely don’t believe they are appealing ideas, seriously.

So they present non stream views to their children without opposition from pesky public schools.

Home schooling ain’t for everybody.
