    Great video! I am a proud home school alum who started college at 16 (no, those weren't high school classes taken in college), graduated when I was 20, went to grad school, started my career with the National Weather Service when I was 20 and am now happily married coming up on 10 years of service in the government. Everyone will tell you that I am the most social person they know and are shocked that I was home schooled. I thank my parents often for giving me the freedom of home schooling.

    I can empathize with that story, though my teacher pushed me to the ground for not understanding math in grade 2.. That was in the 80's, but is still in the back of my mind.. My kids will begin HS soon, they will be far better off learning the valuable things in life and not distracted by the BS our society pushes on them. Home school may not be for everybody, but my kids will excel because of it.

    Hahahahaha, well done, so well done and funny!!! Homeschooling is definitely 'hazardous' for a homeschooling mum like me too, because I don't get to share the same topic with the other mums who send their kids to public / private / Catholic schools. All they talk about is complaints about the school or the teachers which I naturally I don't have, and about the kids who behave badly due to peer pressures, which my kid doesn't have either. I miss out on these social topics due to homeschooling! Warning!

    Loved this video my dad watched it several times:) Also in response to someone saying homeschoolers are rich and spoiled, and parents not getting jobs, my dad works long and hard hours, and my mom puts a lot of time into doing this for us. And being a homeschooler I know that yes sometimes public schoolers are really smart, but it is true about us being able to talk to people outside of our own little age group.

    as a homeschool mom I can tell you that just because we homeschool does not make us rich. I have learned a lot of interesting and ingenious ways of cutting corners financially to make it an option for me to keep my kids at home. I have also worked in the public schools and have a fairly good idea of how things work there and education that my kids would be getting there.

  • @maddjshorts
    @maddjshorts 12 років тому

    There are pros and cons to homeschooling. I personally love taking classes out of the house once a week and it definitely helps me learn how to handle my work. (And yes, I do get out of the house more then that). My brother goes to public school and enjoys it. Yes he has his troubles, and yes I have mine too. I may be slightly sheltered, but in a way I'm glad I was so I could get my beliefs and foundations set before entering this crazy world.
    And really enjoyed the video, btw. :)

    @patriciamartinez10 11 років тому

    I have 4 kids and have done private, religious, public, and cyberschooling and by far unschoolng has been the most fulfilling.. They are able to follow their interests until they are exhausted. Private school was the next in line but far too expensive for far less than they were able to do on their own. Imagine having a teacher who is concerned with you and your interests exclusively. There is nothing better than a teacher dedicated to only you and the world is your classroom.

  • @brokenlensprductions

  • @PixieLovesItAll
    @PixieLovesItAll 10 років тому

    I find that homeschoolers are often more outwardly social. They are more comfortable around groups of people that they don't know. I know, for me, I was able to adjust really well. I used to have crippling social anxiety.

    I think ya'll don't really know what it's like to be home-schooled. I have been home-school up 'till this year, and I was a year ahead. I hate public schools, they suck. I have a lot of friends, but public school doesn't give me enough time for them. I actually got to do a lot more when I was homeschooling than now when I go to public school. I have better grammar and vocabulary than at least most of the kids in my classes (I just chose to use North Carolina substitutes for this post). I future, I hope ya'll know what you're talking about before you start talking about it.

    Great video! Funny how people are so quick to assume that homeschoolers cannot get a good education. Sure maybe there are some parents out there that are not good at homeschooling but I had my fair share of teachers that had no idea how to teach or manage youth. Chances are if a parent is dedicating their time to homeschooling they are looking out for their kids best interest. I encountered many kids that couldn't socialize in the school system - I think that behavior is individual, not learned.

    I also do K12, I got kicked out of school because I have behavior problems and K12 isn't making anything better! People tell me if you don't do education you have no future, Oh?! I can't even learn, I don't like it, I can't do it even if I sit down I won't listen and I don't give a care about stupid education that destroys ideas! I want to be an actor when I grow up and I hear they are many mentally ill actors that also did bad things in school! These people that say if you don't go to school you have no life should think again!

    I'm homeschooled, soon going public, but from experience homeschooling doesn't teach enough valuable skills, and though motivation is already kind of a problem in real school, it's an even BIGGER problem for the average homeschooler

    • @ckbear6566
      @ckbear6566 6 років тому

      Okay, first list the valuable skills you haven't learned. Second, motivation is solely based on your attitude about school. It's true that most people have motivation problems, but it's because we ourselves aren't really trying. I've learned a bunch of skills from homeschooling that I wouldn't have learned in public school. Honestly, if you like public school better and you think it's more beneficial then that's fine, but don't say that you haven't learned anything from it. I learned how to be more independent and set a schedule for myself. It was hard, and still is, but I'm still working to get better. It just takes time.

  • @paulbishop300
    @paulbishop300 11 років тому

    I don't feel I am better than everyone else. I'm not bullying anyone. I'm an autistic, dyslexic person. I fought hard to learn to read and produce proper grammar, not to mention spelling. I learned how to say what I want, and do it well. This qualifies me to bluntly say no one has the right to judge anyone.

    I'm glad you are understanding me. If you have to sacrifice grammar in order to get what you wish to say across, then you are not concise enough to tutor second graders. Science requires grammar skills to be done properly. Math does as well.

    My teen daughter is begging to be home schooled. As a parent it is much easier to drop her off at school and have the day to myself free from kids. I love my kid so I am seriously thinking about teaching her at home. I would rather she stay in school for my own sanity but why would it hurt to give a try and see if we can do it, who knows it might work out for the best. If not then back to school she goes. Never hurts to try a different method.

  • @ButterflyLullabyLtd
    @ButterflyLullabyLtd 11 років тому

    Also want to state that my daughter was copying in school from day one because she did not want to be kept in after class in her break. I call this bullying. Sadly not the schools fault because if they do not pass the school checks they are in serious trouble with the Council! She was making up words when forced to read outloud and felt ashamed. She was made fun of by her whole class because she did not know her tables. She was bullied because she was small for her age.

  • @ace69154
    @ace69154 11 років тому

    As far as expense for home school goes... Public schools receive 20k a year per student through local, state, federal, and homeowner taxes. I don't think it would be too much to ask for half of that amount to be given to parents every year who choose to home school for curriculum and field trips and other learning tools.

    Thank you for directing me to this site. I have reviewed the arguments on this blog (about Craig) and they all seem to hinge on one claim: that not all things that come into being have a cause. In this article the argument for his claim are fallacious. Saying that Scientist do not know that anything caused a certain atom to do something, and this means there is no cause, is an appeal to ignorance. His second claim is simply another of the same fallacy. This argument doesn't prove Craig wrong.

    5. $10,000 per child per year for state schools-yes, that's #1 world wide for the cost of state education (primary and secondary, not college).
    6. State aptitude scores average 50, homeschoolers mid 80s. (No advantage for "privileged", no disadvantage for "underprivileged".)
    7. State educators are one of the top professions to private school their OWN children.
    8. Yolk you and your family to like minded people-those who will succeed in life.
    9. It costs you less in school clothes/etc.

    She was laughed at for her asthma cough. I left school with no qualifications. I have owned three properties. I made my way up to Managing Directors PA. And now the Government demand I take some stupid qualification to get a job which of course costs money in their pocket. 15 years as a secretary is not good enough. Normal Schools should come with a health warning as it causes anxiety in children and even worse. Look at Amanda Todd and others. Education has not protected them!
