Do you agree that parents who homeschool their children, should be paid by the government?


I was talking to a friend on here, and he agreed with me. I won't mention his name, because I don't want him to have to go into the witness protection program, for associating with a dirty rotten scoundrel like me.

In my state, it costs about $20,000 to teach a student for a year in a government school. Conservatives are not happy with our tax dollars going to a government school that focuses on teaching crap about pronouns, toxic masculinity, all white people are garbage, and of course, LGBTQRSTUV. Meanwhile, the government schools are saying that math and science are racist. lol

If parents want to forgo this insanity, and teach their own kids, I believe they should get paid. I believe that if this came to fruition, the government schools would be nearly empty. Yes the mafia (teacher's union) wouldn't like it, but tough shit.

Everybody wants payment for everything.
Homemakers want payments , college students want a free higher education, people want payments for what happened to thier ancestors,and people who refuse to work want payments.
Where would it end?
Some things you do out of love and realize there is no monetary gain in that choice.
This is from a homemaker.
Although, I have enjoyed my time as homemaker, I am considering going back to work part-time,as I realize there is no obligation for taxes payers to fund my lifestyle choice.
I am not saying that I don't agree with homeschooling, but with that choice comes the knowledge that you don't get paid for it.
And yeah, I realize my taxes dollars go for public education that rarely listens to parents concerns.
