My wife and I pulled OUR daughters out of public school... after talking seriously to our daughters about it. We home schooled them for several years. Both went through the entire high school curriculum years early, they easily passed the state high school exam and then went straight into junior college. One daughter started college at age 17. The other started college at age 16.
Strangely enough, it only takes about 4-hours per day of home-school education, which is about 2-hours more per day of 'education' than they get at a public school. The rest of a 'public education' day is just excess crap and fluff. My kids started their 4-hours per day of education at 8:00am until Noon, then did 4-hours of homework or assignments... and their school day was completely done (homework and everything) by 4:00pm. No homework in the evenings or weekends.
We weren't easy on them. Far from it. I cannot believe the ignorance of the average High School graduate. My daughters were better educated and had a better grasp of science, math, history, geography, vocabulary, reading & writing skills, etc... by 7th grade than most of these 12 graders seem to have these days. Funny enough, but they actually enjoyed getting out of the public schools and not dealing with all of the crud that goes on.
Thank you for actually being concerned with your daughters' wellbeing. More parents should follow your example. I'm so sick of the excuses people use to justify sacrificing their children to the government - hypocrites.
It’s a good take, too many assume they aren’t “cut out to be a teacher” or somehow not smart enough to teach their kids right. If it’s important they’ll learn it, I guarantee
Absolutely sorta correct.
We teach, just not in the same way. Lessons come up as and when they do.
As someone who was homeschooled through 6th grade, I can confirm that I was years ahead of my peers for quite some time. And the way they teach things in school, specifically math, just adds more steps and makes no sense at all. It's just a place where kids get dumbed down or groomed anymore. What a trainwreck
This is what I'm going to do. I don't have kids yet, but this is the plan. This is fantastic! You are an amazing parent. This is what my parent should have done. We're an athletic and religious family so I could have gotten all my socialization for sports and church activities.
This is the way.
