Homeschooling is really getting popular and when the people like Elon Musk endorses it then you really have to think about it.
Might be Artificial Intelligence would be helpful in designing the personalized curiculum for each child which would be a great help for homeschooling children.

I decided to virtual Home school my son, his state tests have increased since he has been schooling at home. He is less stressed and distracted compared to when he attended the brick and mortar school. Virtual home schooling consists of daily class connects with live teachers, they usually last an hour each session. It may not be the best choice for every child and parent but it was the best choice for my son, in so many different ways.
We've homeschooled since 2005. Oldest, now 18, in college and doing really well. 16 year old also in college, a year behind her...he's doing extremely well.
We initially started our homeschool journey out of reaction to the local school. She was reading chapter books at 4 years old, and when it came time for school, we asked them to test her into first grade rather than going into kindergarten. They refused to even consider. And that was our start...
School has become less about academic learning and more about social conditioning over the past few decades. Home schooling is a genuine option in the modern world, children can learn everything they need to via guided internet and real world teaching without the indoctrination of the education system which seeks not to teach but to force conformity and produce good little social robots that transition to the wage slave without question.
At one point in time I was homeschooled as a child and I loved it. Once I was put back into public school I struggled completely it was awful and hated it. When college came along I slowly transitioned to completely online and honestly it was the best.
The thing is not everyone learns the same and the other pressures at school made it really hard to want to go. On top of I didn't really learn anything in High school.
I often thought about homeschooling my son, the only thing holding me back was when it came time for him to go College or University will they accept that he has the the same education as someone who went to a actual school?
Thanks for the post.
haryballsac If nothing else, mature age entry to university is also possible, after a couple of years work which will set him up with work experience and help bankroll the university education.
While I absolutely believe homeschooling is a valid and valuable option for educating kids in certain families (where one parent doesnt work) I really really really think there needs to be an assessment of the parent to determine if they are competent enough to conduct an entire curriculum.
I've met people who ranted and raved about the merits of homeschooling only to find out that they themselves were severely biased in their views of science (disputing indisputable facts), pathetic in their understanding of grammar, and completely reliant on computers to solve math problems (data entry was what they were teaching, not understanding of the concepts). These people had no right "teaching" their kids at home and probably hampered their future prospects in terms of higher education and jobs.
Now, I fully expect every anti-establishment anarchist to come after me with torches and pitch forks, but you cant deny that some people simply dont have the basic skills to be an educator.
I cannot disagree with your comment and observation. I do think, however, that the more we shame others and their views, the harder they hold on to them. I think a more sustainable approach is just to offer new ways.
Home schooling is a new innovation in some parts of the world. It obviously has its advantages and disadvantages. Some of which is that the kids will not mix up with their mates. The advantage is that the kids will not learn bad habits from their peers. I follow and upvote you.

With the internet and the online courses we have now, I think homeschooling is a good choice. Esp when public schools and college campuses are endorsing political correctness.
I had my oldest in home school for most of high school and would highly encourage if you are considering home school. Know that if your child is the type to use their intelligence to get out of doing things rather than just completing the task at hand, you will find yourself having to sit and monitor their course completion.
I will say that the Florida virtual school system itself is vastly advantageous in comparison. More in depth material. Calls from each instructor every week for updates on progress.
The only downside is no peer interaction face to face.

Yes it is and I am happy there is an option for our children.

that is really refreshing to hear! taking the education by our own hands

Yes, i actually know people that have done that. If you do not feel comfortable they can always get a GED.
