Until the FASCISTS outlaw homeschooling.....
I’m hearing that a lot of parents are discovering Common Core math and they’re rebelling by teaching their kids rote memorization of multiplication and division tables and they also teaching their kids short division instead of the horribly complex CC division method.
Home schooling will be a predictable result.
One could only hope.
However, this event proved that my youngest would not survive homeschooling...
I mean, it's a start, and better than getting up-close indoctrination at the brick-and-mortar school - but choosing curriculum and paying for it yourself, making out and executing your own learning plans - THAT'S real home-schooling.
Another piece of that would be choosing a co-op, and interacting and sharing with other home-school families. But it's a start.

No because most of us parents have to work
If you’re religious or you got one pair and they can stay home and doesn’t have to work more power to you
good luck with that
As an engineer I’m more than happy to help my kids with any problem-solving or homework or math problems
It’ll turn Idiocracy into a documentary.
The US education system will never allow this as the kiddos might actually learn about American History.
I think that there will be a lot more homeschooling as a result of the current situation. People who had considered it before,but were not confident enough that they could pull it off, are discovering that they can do it and very successfully at that!! I’m pretty sure that it will be the new trend for a lot of families if at all possible. My daughter is a member of a co-op and the kids meet one day a week at a local church that has it set up just like a public school, gym class and all and that is working very well and the kids are very happy with it. I used to be astounded at what my kids were not learning in public school, mostly in history class. My granddaughters are learning a lot more than what their parents were taught in public school.
This homeschool instructor sure hopes so.

Another incentive to home school are finances. The old routine of both parents working then blowing a wad of dough each weekend on entertainment and eating out came to a screeching halt for many two months ago.
Many will find that they survived quite well in a hunker-down mode and will be pleasantly surprised at their ability to get by on just one income.
