I am more the parent’s choice as long as the homeschool curriculum is serious. I see how wife swap homeschool students are taught and it is not impressive.

No, not all home schooled kids get the best of education - but I've seen what is taught to our kids in public schools - and "it is not impressive."

Dear maine-iac7,

“No, not all home schooled kids get the best of education - but I’ve seen what is taught to our kids in public schools - and ‘it is not impressive.’”

How true that is.

The thing is, for every homeschooling “failure,” it’s easy enough to point to a hundred successes. Conversely, for every public school success, it’s easy enough to point to a hundred failures.

The public schools struggle to GRADUATE even 70% of their charges, and as we all know many of those “graduates” leave their public school experiences barely literate or numerate.

It’s ironic that we give oversight of the successful (homeschoolers) to the failed (public school administrators).
