Homeschooling is most certainly a viable alternative. A more wholesome and challenging one than any cookie cutter, red tape adder, parent discounting, students are just a number and a paycheck, system. And for the majority, the public schools are failing.

That’s all I am saying.

Your whole point about testing is unfounded. Homeless moms have homeschooled and her son who a perfect score on the SAT a few years ago. That mom wasn’t tested by anyone. And the teachers in the system WHEN THEY ARE TESTED, the majority don’t pass. The public school teachers in New York I believe couldn’t pass an eight grade test. Graduated teaching teachers couldn’t pass!!! What a royal rip off!! The idea that credentials have anything to do with ability is false and a paradigm of the left. Useless baloney.

The curriculum DOES NOT get taught. Just last week a Freeper posted a teaching friends confession that she was NOT taught enough math to teach well. MATH!! Never mind the shuffling of teaching assignments to classes that are not their area of study, and more than 70% of kids are taught by a teacher that is not in their area of study. Those teachers aren’t able to teach well and have their hands tied in knots.

The schools are dead soulless and full of indoctrination. Anyone who does not know this is got their head in the sand. This nation is going to lose its freedoms because of people like you who WANT to believe the schools can be saved and send their kids there. They are the reason why the left keeps making progress, while conservatives will become the bane of society. Do you not understand that is how 0 got elected? Are you asleep? The blind leading the blind?

The crack about media poisoning is a laugh. The media hates homeschoolers. HA!! Your the one that is poisoned by your own difficult past and the media. You believe that nonsense about homeschoolers are too “protected” HA! Your hate and pain makes it IMPOSSIBLE for you to be impartial towards homeschoolers.

If you think that some bureaucrat out there cares more about the kids in the schools, that is just sad. Truly. Do you know why the schools aren’t held responsible for the education of the kids FORCED to attend by law? BECAUSE THEIR IS NO LAW REQUIRING ANY CHILD TO BE EDCUATED BY THE TAXPAYER SUPPORTED SYSTEM. So you think this bastion of “hope” and failure should be in charge of who is worthy to teach? You want to give even more power to the feminazis in the schools? Where do you think all these metro sexual boys are coming from? They have only just started to turn over children to homo’s for adoption.

That is crazy. Your pain is short circuiting your brain. Your situation is not anywhere near “average” and the kids who have moms who really don’t care, those moms don’t homeschool.

As a personal note, the schools did not save me or my brothers. Our parents were too busy with their careers and putting each other though college to care about us. Not one teacher for the three of us helped or cared. Period. The schools may have saved you, but there are MORE kids they hurt and abandon than they help. Homeschooling moms are not YOUR mom. We are a feisty and dedicated bunch. We care more about the KIND of education that our children receive than ANYONE else. It does NOT take a village.

As far as I am concerned, credentialing, bureaucratizing, left leaning socialist institutions with mushy group think are not what made this country. It was FREEDOM. That your mom did not cherish you and care is a sin. But no school is going to care enough to make up for the loss of freedom you advocate. Do you really think that all homeschoolers should lose the freedoms we do have, just because your mom failed you? That is honestly, evil. Wake up.
