I wonder if one was able to find other parents with the same perceived issues, if the parents could from a group, pool their money, and hire a private tutor to act has homeschool teacher resource.
This. With all respect as I have two kids myself. How important is your kid to you? Do you want to lose them to conformity and ignorance and servitude?
Both my kids are base. They go to private school. We talk. They know the importance of what is going on.
After 40+ years, the only debt I have is our mortgage, but because we've made a commitment to our kids, to raise them in private or homeschool, It's hard. Sometimes it sucks. We've gone without many times. Would I go back and change anything, make life easier?
No way.
Ignoring reality was never an option.
My kids have thanked me.
I think some areas have shared home school where a group of parents each take a day with a few kids so all the kids get more of a school setting and get the social setting as well , plus you can still have a job and teach you kids. So if you could find some other like minded parents It might be something that could work for you . I know most people can't just not goto work but could manage one less day of work.
Our Son was the #1 in the gifted class. We pulled him out since he has to stay home anyway... Now he learns about the constitution, and Christian values..
Football to have Social interactions. Then baseball next
Kids are resilient. Your son will learn despite the program. Proof: He has learned something in public school despite their best efforts to not teach him.
With all due respect, this situation cannot wait. Trust yourself, teach them what you know. It will be more beneficial than anything they can get in school. You cannot do worse than what is currently happening. Where is the line?
If he's gifted he'll go farther homeschooled, my brothers kids all tested college level reading & comprehension when they rebelled to go intonhighschool ( they wanted more social activities...) their weak points were writing & math
You will do 10x better with your gifted child if you homeschooled him. His gift will be nourished rather than squashed. If he is already worried what his teachers think of his political views, he is DEFINTLY in the wrong class. Sounds like brain washing.
Ron Paul made an awesome homeschooling guide, check it out!
I don’t know what the best method is, but Ron Paul has a curriculum that can’t be worse than sending your kid to most public schools. https://www.ronpaulcurriculum.com/
Homeschool your children.
You can do this through programs with no teaching experience. They will send you the materials. Listen to this man.
Not everyone can stay home with the kids either bc nothing is affordable
If the kid can do "Online School", he can be homeschooled.
If both parents have to work, when will they have time to spend a full school day teaching?
Getting state education in CA should be grounds for social services removing your child tbqh.
I mean... except for the fact that CPS is implicated in stealing children for sex trafficking.
"I'm from the government, and I'm here to help."
I would flee CA like the plague. Half his CA salary should be plenty in most small to medium cities.
Because there are shills among us.
How dare u make money and support yourself/family lol

Ive heard of homeschooling in groups.
It’s time to homeschool

Good spot this. If you cant afford it, move. LA is sodding pricey for a growing family. Go texas or somewhere that iant full of commie health nazis.
I have. 10 years ago.

Pandemic pods. I hope it takes off, and permanently.
Surely someone's wife would be willing to do it for a group of kids and the people can give them money for doing it.
Kinda like a job

I was homeschooled K - 12 and my husband and I will be homeschooling our kids as well. We've heard really good things about the Ron Paul curriculum!
Seriously? I started homeschooling because my kid was gifted. School just holds them back. We unschool. My kids choose what they want to learn.

I have no personal experience on the subject but I have the highest regard on Ron Paul’s recommendation on matters of education.

Move. But consider moving to a swing state.
If even a fraction of the conservatives in blue states left for swing states they would dominate the vote.
Move to the reddest county in such a swing state to guard against indoctrination and make sure your son can be around decent people.
That way you protect your family while making it harder for the establishment to fuck with the vote.
Vote? HAHAHAHAHAHA

no point in public school when they're at home anyway.
they lose funding and eventually their jobs as enrollment drops
We started last year. Never going back.
