I Think Our Kids Aren't Being Educated
... Which is why I support Homeshooling so much. Not always, as some parents are too ignorant or lazy to ensure their kids aren't just sitting around in their pajamas all day doing nothing, but if parents were as dedicated to their children as they were in the old days, it's a much better solution.
I found it incredibly ludicrous that I graduated Middle school and went to High school for a while and knew nothing about politics, government, or law. They expected me to go out and vote at 18, without teaching me a single thing about politics! They expect children to get into University and go on to have a career and do banking and get a house and car, meanwhile they are taught none of this at school. You could argue that that's the parents job, but people these days rarely teach their kids anything, they think that's what school is for.
My children will have the government curriculum, and then I'll build on that to form my own curriculum which I more approve of. This will include Latin, French, Politics, World History, Economics, cooking, farming/gardening among many others.
I've gotten a lot of bad reactions to the fact that all of my children will be homeschooled though, so I wanted to explain my personal plan, to explain a few things and to make it clear that none of my children will be forced into homeschooling. If they ever express they want to try school, they will be allowed, and they will be taught the rest of my own curriculum at home. But they can try out school if they want to. My children will have lots of freedom contrary to the traditional and strict ways I am going to raise them.
Also, they won't just be sitting around all day being in socialized. Although I know many homeschooled kids who are. That's on the parents though, not on homeschooling itself. My children will have a school time uniform and we will dedicate a certain room of the house that will serve as our "school room." They will also participate in sports and activities with other children. I'll ensure they are very socialized, just with people I approve of, not random bratty kids at school who will influence them for the worst.
Does anyone here homeschool their children? I'd love to talk if you do. 馃槉
