Although I agree as to your reasoning, is anybody thinking of long term implications? If you think about it, we're going to have a generation who will be so socially fucked up that that alone might breed killing machines.


We are losing our social skills ever since electronic communications crept into our lives.
We're teaching children not even to touch another (germs). There's hardly anymore eye contact because they're too busy fussin' with their iPhones while walking, jogging, shopping, sunbathing, driving or waiting for a bus.


So what will happen if we restrict this generation from interacting with one another during their formative years by keeping them home? We're going to have a generation of human robots.

I don't profess to know the answer but I can see the future ramifications and the future is looking more and more frightening with each passing day though.

False BS... The impression society has that homeschoolers are socially awkward, loner, weirdos is driven by media and government hell bent on getting their hands on your kids and indoctrinating them to the new agenda.

I know LOTS of homeschooled kids...

I would take 10 homeschooled kids for every 1 from public or 5 from private. They are often self-secure, polite, controlled, well mannered kind, smart, engaging, mature etc... I would take those characteristics any day over the clones the public schools spit out...

Stop spreading non sense...

You've never been homeschooled.
I was homeschooled until 5th grade, and the poster you quoted is CORRECT. We are not learning anything useful in public school, but when I missed out on communicating with peers at a young age, my social proficiency suffered. It took me years to be able to hang out in normal groups of people outside of school consistently and flow.

Look. If you homeschool your kid they are going to be and feel "different," and if you public school them, they are going to be raised just right for the society they are being rammed into.

THE SOCIETY IS THE PROBLEM.

That's some serious mental gymnastics right there.
