HOMESCHOOLING

[Guest guest]

I think there is some misunderstanding. I DID NOT HAVE A BAD

EXPERIENCE WITH HOME SCHOOLING. I LOVED IT AS A KID. I did miss out

on things that I feel a child learns in school. I would NOT have my

kid home schooled( if I had one ). School is both good and bad like

anything else. It is not just about social issues, it about having a

child form an idenity seperate from mom and dad. I feel a child slowly

forms NOT a personality, but an idenity away from the parents. Good

parents need to be involevd in helping a child with solving problems,

teaching them how to handle themselves away from a safe home

enviroment.

The world is not a safe enviroment. This has NOTHING to do with my

nada. This is my opinion. I was home schooled. whenI grew up, I knew I

missed out. School prepares the child for the REAL world, not

wonderland. It is hard, it is unfair, it is scarey, it is also fun,

competitive and some of the best days of your life. Some people had a

bad expeience with public schools. So did I. I went to grade school,

and was tutored through high school. My bad experience with hating to

go to school, still would make me NOT want my kids home schooled. I

know both sides, I LIVED IT! This is MY opinion. You can't teach a

child to fly, if they never leave the NEST! Play groups and all that

crap don't count. That is not reality.
