  1. im not writing u an essay and i dont see how home schooling has any benefits at all. Children need to go to school to learn to interact with other people, they cant be hermit crabs their whole lives


  2. Thetis - your comments remind me of the person who thought kids needed to go to school so that, as adults, they would then know how to queue up when at the bank etc! Guess what? Homeschooled kids learn how to behave when visiting the bank...by visiting the bank (Shock! Horror!) not by spending 13 years in the artificial environment that is the majority of schools, exploring, through role play, the idea of going to the bank.

    Typically kids do not learn positive socialisation skills at school (a recent study from the University of Illinois proved that the bulk of a person's socialisation occurs between birth and aged 6 years). Schools exist to teach kids how to pass exams, get good qualifications, a good degree, a good job (in which those 13 years spent at school will have taught them how to be a 'good' [meaning compliant] employee etc), a big house, 2 cars, regular overseas holidays, heaps of money etc (or that's the theory anyway).

    Home education, on the other hand, teaches a child lessons for life (as opposed to lessons solely for the classroom!).

    Oh, and to the original poster...you should stop being so lazy and idle and get off your backside and get on with researching and writing your own essay (if 600 words on anything could possibly be called an essay, or even an essy, or anything more than the briefest of prolegomenoms)

  3. {rolling my eyes at the "Children need to go to school to learn to interact with other people, they cant be hermit crabs their whole lives"--as though homeschooled kids can't possibly leave their homes. Good grief!)

    I will not write you an essay. Look around online to find out about benefits and write your own essay.

  4. Go do your own homework. Academic dishonesty is immoral and annoying.

    EDIT: Hermit crabs? What a silly assumption.

  5. You go, Hannah M! Who wants their kids to socialize with  flocks of sheep the same age who are herded into pens all day long, then when they get some free time between classes, they all talk about the same things that are common for kids of their age group (not to mention the bullying, name calling, peer pressure to do things you shouldn't do, the clicks and snobbery, exposure to drugs and s*x even in first grade)!  If more parents would look into homeschooling and really do their research on it instead of ASSUMING things, then they'd all wish they could homeschool too.

    Don't you all GET it?!!  Homeschooled kids don't NEED to be in flocks for security because they don't follow a flock; they are the shepherds, and masters of themselves!  Many of them graduate at 14 and 16 and some are even taking college classes at that age too.  They are more prepared to live in the REAL world because they have learned to be independent, self-reliant, know the importance of education and have learned to focus on what's really important in life.  Why?  Because they have parents who put their children and their children's success as their first priority, and are willing to sacrifice their own time, effort, and life for their kids.

    Some kids hate it at first but most that I know of are glad they are doing it once they learn that if they focus they can finish in half the time and have MORE free time to spend doing what they enjoy, can go to college earlier, and get better jobs than just flipping hamburgers at McDonald's.

    That's why colleges like Yale, Harvard, and Stanford SEEK OUT homeschooled kids to attend their university; because they know they are more mature, more independent, reliable and responsible, and can focus on their work, plus many of them are capable and comfortable talking not only with their peers, but to adults of all ages as well. I admit this is a generalization and not ALL homeschoolers are like this, but many are.

    This isn't really an essay, but if you really want to know, me777, how hard can it be to type in and google: "Benefits of Homeschooling?"  Or are you trying to get someone to do your homework for you?  I hope not.
