At this point why are any parents sending their children to public schools? The teachers unions are corrupt and way too powerful. The curriculum is corrupt. Very difficult to get rid of bad teachers. Crimes, abuse, bullying, lock downs, etc. The schools are overcrowded, lack of discipline, lack of parental interaction, respect, waste of taxpayer money.
How can we feel good to leave our children in this prison warehouse for our most precious responsibility? Its crazy.
I shared this with just homeschool in capitals...
When I was in high school, which was many moons ago, my calculus teacher had an NEA sticker prominently displayed on his file cabinet. I sat and pondered that during many a class period. I wondered about it even back then.
Many teachers only pay NEA dues for the liability insurance. They are afraid of being sued for the least little thing. They don't necessarily agree with NEA's politics.
I'm pretty sure my prof did agree. IIRC, he mentioned something about it one day in class, which is what put my radar up.
As someone who worked with kids with special needs I can attest that many parents wouldn't have the ability to work with them at home. Most of these kids need the school structure and the routine whether or not it is in a public school.
Most of these parents would have difficulty providing the needs of these kids on their own. They require multiple specialized therapists and special educators to work with them.
I agree that typical kids can be homeschooled and could excell anywhere with attention, but I have a hard time envisioning many of my special needs kids from benefiting at home. Unless the parents have special ed training and some numerous therapists coming and going it could be possibly be done I suppose but would not be as beneficial as a structured school setting.
I understand what you are saying, but like our political system, our educational system needs to be revamped totally.
Thank you for working with children that need extra help and structure. Too bad we couldn't do that in homes where parents could be educated too.
I am sure the parents need a break and some must be so stressed, so schools must be a welcome relief at times as well as a needed resource. So thank you again.
Why thanks I loved my job and all my kids. I am now retired. But I still miss working with them.
I especially liked trying to figure out what made each of them tick what they enjoyed doing and using that to get them to learn even more. Getting their attention and holding it for as long as I could was the key to increase their skills. I typically worked one-on-one or in very small groups as a therapist.
LOL your comment on homeschooled kids is absolute bullshit. Public school is a great place to have your kids indoctrinated. If your kids aren't properly socialized that isn't homeschools fault, it's YOURS. Homeschooling is more than sitting at home teaching your kids. There are homeschool co-ops and groups you can join. Don't be lazy. Do it the Right Way.
I have alot of homeschooling friends. They are actually BETTER at socializing, relationships, and here at work since they haven't had the constant worry of making sure what they say do and think is in lock step with the main stream. I'm so jealous they got to act and behave like adults long before the rest of us public retards felt we could do the same and still be accepted by our public school peers. Also fuck bills. I'd rather my child be homeless with me and have a soul worth saving than have a roof over their little demonic cabal influenced minds.
It's like you haven't been paying any attention at all to what's going on as you clearly don't know just how bad public schools are now. My wife is a high school teacher and even she refuses to send our 6 year old to public school.
Grown adult here that was homeschooled K-12, and pretty much everything you said about being “social” is untrue. We had MANY friends, co-op, church, sports and other activities that not only got us out of the house but also taught us social skills with adults as well as other kids. I was able to communicate with adults better than my peers could because I was around such a spectrum of people by being homeschooled. I started odd jobs at 12-13 and got my first real job when I turned 16. I was able to work the fun hours cause I was able to do the day shift since school work could be finished in an hour. The opportunity to start working young has given me the ability to think more responsibly as well.
Is the point of public school to socialize? Cause they spend a majority of their time doing the complete opposite :|
That's a good argument for homeschooling that not a lot of people mention. I remember there being a lot of wasted time in school and a lot of repeated information.
So much time spent trying to pull the bottom of the class up to the middle, that not a lot of attention is given to those at the top.
Yeah well you're doing it wrong.
Homeschool kids are more well adjusted because they haven't been subjected to bullying by communist teachers and other children. They don't have to listen to some tranny reading a story about "Billy and his two dads".
Not all home lives are ideal. I was verbally and physically abused by my parents until we got a dog when I was a kid and the dog wouldn't let my parents touch us. My mom was is an alcoholic, (sober now) and my dad drank right alongside her, they both worked so we weren't in the system from them getting welfare or anything. Even though the physical abuse stopped the verbal never did, not until I was an adult and stood up to my parents.
It was me working to get out of that, and raise my daughter better than I had it that brought me to this day.
So school for some children is a way out of that abuse at least for a time. I don't hate or judge my parents my maternal grandmother was batshit crazy, and I mean actually crazy and abusive to her kids the only thing that kept her from murdering them was my grandpa he often had to hide all the butcher knives in the house. I wish I was joking.
Sorry probably tmi, but we don't all share the same reality and ideal upbringing.
OP isnt wrong. Home school can totally be problematic if its treated secondary and without obligation.
I've met some home schooled kids that were a complete mess because the parents gave up on them.
I've also met some public school kids that were given up on as well; also a mess.
I've met private schooled kids that were complete liberal sinkholes, complete void of conscience.
I went to a private Christian school, and later on many different public schools across the country.
I can safely say that there is no absolute perfect solution, but that any independent path you take will require extra work for success - especially at times when its inconvenient for you.
Tell ya what, let's keep talking about how were all wrong and no ones experiences have any merit. If you've been paying attention, the devolving public discourse into a nonconclusive result is exactly the divisiveness the Cabal wants.
Man, this place is a real pit on the weekends... 😔
