As a current teacher I agree that education is dead and homeschooling is the best way to go.
Hearing destiny reminds me of my friends who never really made it out of the hometown. Enjoy their silly ideas, but keep them the hell away from the kids.
Because that works for teachers
No is not
Homeschooling is nice but kids do need to socialize with their peers. The best way is for parents to set up a school like setting for the neighborhood where the parents can teach multiple students all at once. Social life for the kids, and the parents get to educate the kids as they see fit.
@@BEENONE24 it’s not the only way but homeschooling reduces the chances of social interaction
Just let the woman talk. She knows what she’s doing. It’s so annoying as someone who was homeschooled to see people argue with her who don’t know what they’re talking about.
Sorry this woman does not know what she is talking about. Sorry no. She got destroyed in this debate. This was a huge disaster for home school information. She can't even provide simple pros cons. She can't answer the question.
You have no idea if she knows what she's doing or not.
@@GrantStinnett How is she wrong then
@@GrantStinnett You don't know what anyone else knows either. It didn't stop you from commenting that others don't know what they're talking about. Your level of self awareness seems very low.
@@GrantStinnett That's not an answer. You're lazy. Make an effort to explain how she is right.
That lady hit the nail on the head saying you don’t need the whole day to teach kids!! I felt that in my soul lol
Was JUST talking about that this week with a friend. The host are being unprofessional and slightly rude.
@@veronicamoore5560 they want their voices overheard lol especially twink with the blue head
You don't...but the major obstacle for most American families is having one parent home to be able to home school. There's a small percentage that have enough money to have one parent not work or work less to be able to home school so for most it's not even about arguing for or against homeschooling, it's just logistically not possible.
Yet children come home from school with tons of homework and some of it is for you to do with them.
Yes but she’s dead wrong on why…. The one on one attention/tutoring that comes from homeschooling your kids is why 5 hrs on a subject goes further than that same five hrs in a class room where the attention is split between 18 kids. Which means you can either get through a whole semester much faster in a homeschool setting than if this kid and this subject were covered in a school, and that’s only if all other factors were equal. Because depending on the child and the subject, it could take way longer, which is neither good nor bad.
Adam is literally that person who tells you how to raise your own kids and doesn't have kids.
His takes on this topic were awful, plus its constant interrupting her flow of talking, sure interject at times, but constantly one two three, this topic threatened him, it would be good for him to consider why. She seems really sensible to me and thought about all aspects of this.
When spouting bs, I’d interrupt too
Adam is a waste of time on that show and Pat should just get rid of him.
The most anti-social children exist in the public school system. The fear of anti-social children is vastly overblown. Our 5 children are homeschooled and more well mannered and social than most of their public school counterparts.
Five, count 'em five! Frank, I'm with you! I totally believe you have brought up and home schooled five more good young people who will be what this world needs more of. I appreciate parents like you. Thank you for being who you are.
My children don't need active shooter training for home school
john taylor gatto talks about the school system and was a public teacher at some point, I recommend his books on the public school system he breaks down all its problems, He also has a few videos also on youtube. Too bad he died a while back, he would had made a great interview for pat.
And homeschooling leads to bizarre inbreds. It's astounding that this woman acting like she owns her kids and has to own the growth of their minds isn't weird or creepy.
This is bullshit kids that are home schooled are weirdos. We are humans, and we need human interaction, not echo chambers ...she's a lunatic
I was homeschooled; as a result, I speak 5 languages fluently, 3 degrees, received first degree before getting my driver license, paid all my family's debt, plus we're in positive financially state.
This socializing children is the biggest scam public schools force down parent's throat! I gained all my social skills from interaction from karate classes, family, and community.
This comment has a vibe where we find out that her family is well off and she is paid by her dad's company.
@@ItsAllCulturalMarxism and I fail to see anything wrong with that.

@@ItsAllCulturalMarxism you're assuming a lot about someone that you have no idea who they are. I know this is the internet, but come on.

“I HAVE NEVER LET SCHOOLING INTERFERE WITH MY EDUCATION.”
~ Mark Twain
That was Einstein NOT Twain😅
@@achinthmurali5207 No, that was actually Donald Trump😎
I was homeschooled for 4 years from 3rd to 7th grade. I was given assignments, but my mom didn't teach. We taught ourselves. When I went back to school, I was several grades above my peers when I was simply average before. I did struggle with socialization when I went back, but that had more to do with being poor than anything else.
Socialization you can get at dance class, boxing gym, boy n girl scouts etc.... but home school still better than public schools.
I cried when my daughter wanted to be homeschooled because I didn't think I was capable of being her teacher. That was 9th grade, now we're 3 years into it and it's the best decision she made for her mental state, kids are cruel! She is her own person with her own thoughts, she's so mature and has a beautiful outlook on life. She's able to work at the local youth center because she has flexibility in her schedule. The lack of social interaction was my biggest concern, she has a circle of friends any parent would be proud of. If in school, would she still feel the way she used to feel about herself? Would she have the confidence in herself that she has now? Homeschool changed her life for the better and I'm really proud of her for making such a big decision at a young age.
@@kristen_franklin All the best to you and your family.
@@kristen_franklin i would recommend alot if research for u and ur husband then on off time from school try teaching during their breaks. Make it natural like moms throwing out trivia tidbits, not overly instructed, like let's sit down and learn, mine rejected the we structured attempts. It takes YEARS sometimes to find a curriculum that works and the kids attitudes always change, sometimes for the good, sometimes bad. Just accept that that's NORMAL. Mom and child are both GOING TO CRY from frustration and THAT'S OK! Get ur mind right to accept the challenges and the pitfalls, bc its up to YOU to create the learnings environment, DO NOT GET DEPRESSED AS UR ENVIRONMENT WILL BECOME DEPRESSED. A good attitude is as contagious as a bad one. You've got to learn how to be ur own cheerleader so u can be theirs also. YOU CAN DO IT! It takes time, but u can do it. Just be realistic and don't let a feeling of defeat get u down. You will all be frustrated at times, make sure u accept that and PLAN for that frustration. You should plan on rest or reprieve from frustration by creating fun, creative and engaging curriculum, ( videos and games can work ) and rest and relax times.
@@kristen_franklin “Odd Girl Out: The Hidden Culture of Aggression in Girls.” This doesn’t change in adulthood. I heard Jordan Peterson said women do this because nobody punches them in the face.
amazing that you could consider your childs words as most are conditioned not to do so, your child will respect you in old age,she won't become satanic as big component of becoming perverse and satanic is a disconnection from your roots,,,,in my opinion if the perents are decent people, productive members in society and have a good relationship with their kids ,there doesn't need to be a specific education at all, you just live and you learn!! especially if your very successful and there is love in the air then the kids strive to be successful as you as well if their is no outside influence messing it up the kid will naturally want to learn this and that, and when that internal desire is awake then the input is very minimal,,, i see it on youtube allot how wonderful those homekids communicate and much more worldly they are,,,, and also when home learning you can have your ideas whats good for your kid to learn and your kid can have their own ideas what suits them, and you compromise in both and when your kid learns something that they are not invested in ,they do it for you, to please and respect you thus even if it ends up not being important to them it still is a respect to you that they did it,so its still very meaningful ,same if they end up not doing what they were passionate about, they enjoyed expanding their brain they will love you for supporting them in their quest and its all meaningful,, but when they are in the system its completely meaningless ,most of what's learned is meaningless to the perents to the kid and even to the teacher, everyone is just doing there part/job as a means to an end, yeah the perents care for the good mark but they are not invested in it,,,life is about connections and everything you do should improve your connection to others to your perents to your kids ,schools by definition is disconnecting
Do you have a recommendation for a program that my high schooler who wants to be homeschooled?
I've been teaching h.s. science for 32 years and I used to think that socialization was the major 'con' of homeschooling. I was wrong. Homeschooling parents purposefully seek out interactions to fill this gap. They have the option to do extracurriculars at the local school. And the time it takes a traditional school to teach the 3 r's is much longer than takes in a 1-on-1 session, so home education is vastly more efficient which leaves tons of time for the kids to learn things they are more interested in. The stuff you can find online makes homeschooling a much better option than it used to be without the internet. Finally, the negative impact on kids in a traditional school is way worse than any negative that homeschooling could have.
You're full of it. Every home school situation is different. Your last sentence gives you away. Your a homeschooled goober.
@@bonzocleach2496 I went to a public school in small rural farming community and my dad was the science teacher in the h.s. I had a great experience that was better than what I imagine a homeschool experience could have been, but that was in the 80's. Today, it's much different. Of course every home school situation is different, but there are less negatives (more positives) for home schooling today than ever and more negatives (less positives) for public schools.
EDUCATION SYSTEM = A propaganda PRIMING system which produces emotionally weak and docile children who are taught politically biased 'knowledge' - not to think with a objective and strong willed mindset.
The boys will become subservient men who have been mentally and sexually castrated.
The girls will become women who are told they're 'empowered' and 'equal' to men while at the same time victims of an anti female society (despite the fact the truth is the complete opposite).
And of course, if anyone becomes their own person and able to think for themselves as well as dismantle the narrative? They WILL of course, be demonised by either the authorities or members of society.
A society of zombies addicted to TV, internet and having everything provided for them.
Not thinking FOR themselves in a way which frees them of being part OF that aforementioned narrative.
@@tcaabr Bonzo is trolling anyone who speaks in favor of homeschooling
@@tcaabr You're what they call a helicopter Mom. When did you find time for homeschooling if you were busy teaching science for 32 years?
Her kids and husband are extremely fortunate to have this woman running their home
She fully wiped the floor on this. I wish I had more courage myself 20 years ago to start homeschooling my children. The moment he said he basically "rates" a persons worth by test scores tells me he is lost.
Absolutely crazy to me that they can tell her what are cons when they’ve never experienced any aspect of home schooling. But she has both experience with home schooling and public schooling. She won my vote
After my son's kindergarten teacher destroyed my son's love of learning, I pulled him out of public school and homeschooled him from first grade on.
It took me 3 years to get his love of learning back, to begin taking chances again, to grow back some confidence, and not feel stupid.
I homeschooled all of my three of my kids. We joined several homeschool groups, one of which had 250 kids of all ages involved. My kids have thrived. They are all able to socialize with anyone, they have a healthy self-esteem, and they take responsibility for themselves. I get compliments from strangers about how engaging and mature they are almost daily.
She is right, you have to remove your idea of what homeschool is and start over. They can learn a whole lot more if you do homeschool differently than regular school. One example of this is how public schools waste a lot of time in crowd management, getting in line and going from class to class. Homeschool can be much more child led, where they retain their love of learning following passions, but still learn all of the important basics, all before noon.
I'm constantly awe of what my kids have accomplished at such a young age. They've began businesses on their own, and I've almost taken for granted how mentally, emotionally, and socially healthy they are. I meet kids from public school all the time who seem depressed and stressed, and it breaks my heart.
How did a teacher do that to him??
I love that ❤️😊
@@candyluna2929 Well, because of the personal problems she was having it home, she came to school and took it out on the kids. It affected the entire class. She lost her job by the end of the year. When the kids didn't listen immediately, she lose her temper. If they didn't follow her rules, she'd ask them what's wrong with them? That's the just the tip of the iceberg
@@candyluna2929one way is to label the kids. ADD, ADHD, Autistic etc. My grandson was reading by 3 yrs. old, basic math concepts, all colors, shapes and was learning to write. He started kindergarten. Almost immediately the teacher says "he needs to be on Ritalin. He gets up while I am teaching and gets the blocks and starts building things at his desk. He does not pay attention in class." My grandson was BORED out of his mind! He already knew all of the stuff she was teaching so he was quietly trying to entertain himself. We moved him to another school. There he was labeled autistic and put into speach therapy and special ed. On and on it went. He is finally in a school that he excels in and is an A student. No Ritalin.
@@sharlonbarnes8977 when the teacher did that with my son... I straight up told her he knows this already... So why don't you make him your helper and it worked out beautifully. My son to this day now 20 love's to help people.
I recently began homeschool my 4th grader. She's right - we have a much stronger bond than ever before when I worked FT. I regret not homeschooling earlier. We make far less money but our family is much closer to one another. Totally worth it!!
If you're homeschooling your kids and fear that your children might miss out on making friends and learning social skills, don't worry, you can send your kids to dance class, have them join some martial arts class, or art class, or any form of extracurricular activity, and on top of that, there are many Social Media groups of homeschooling parents that get together so their kids can meet other children who are also being homeschooled.
And let's be real here, how many of y'all are still in contact and good relations with your friends from back in your K to 12 school days ?
I went to a public school, it wasn't that bad back in my day, but I literally have zero contact with any of the friends I made during my School days, they all moved on, I moved on, and this is probably a similar story for everyone that went to public school.
I'm one of the few that stayed in contact with a childhood friend. I was homeschool and my parents made a large effort to let me hang out with my friend. 20 years later he's moved into my house and is my tenant. Still best friends. My life turned out fine being homeschooled. Playing club soccer and being involved with church things were enough to make me completely normal socially.
Bingo
YMCA
And home school coops are pretty easy to find. My son is very extroverted and he goes to a coop 3 days a week in addition to the other activities he's involved in. Reading at 2 (learned on his own), memorized addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division tables by 3 and was doing algebra by 6. He's also extremely rambunctious and likely would've had medications forced on him for not sitting still in class (as was the case with my equally intelligent nephew who's parents sent him to public school). Public schools are broken and parents who want to opt out should be encouraged to do so.
You are 100% CORRECT!
Homeschooling can be done with an entire group of children in the neighborhood. Additionally, it doesn’t have to be inside a house. It can be at a park, beach, in general nature etc…
Y
That's the best thing about it.... no need to be trapped at a desk. It's freedom to teach how, when, and where you want.
how about during winter?
the issue is that what you speak of is usually extremist religious based which then shelters the kids from the real world. its rarely a community of well rounded worldly thinking adults who all raise their kids together and share real world experiences.
@@bdubz_det public education has proven to be an establishment of degeneracy. My children will be homeschooled and enjoy extracurricular activities with other children, preferably with parents who aren’t degenerates themselves.
Backup plan is to move into a Muslim majority town where our justice and values are far greater than the degenerates.
The reason these guys don’t agree with her is because they got defensive because they were victims of the abuses associated public education (as I was).
She is 100% right but she will never convince young, fatherless men of this grave mistake until they themselves become fathers and also not until she presents homeschooling as a compelling alternative that offers solutions to the public education problems.
Homeschooling is so much more than just about who, what and where your child is being taught. It’s about a fundamental shift FROM being dependent on a broken, godless system TO a more resilient, independent, self-starting and self-teaching system that you and your family is the master of.
I have a 4 year old, and have been considering home schooling, this podcast confirms Home School Is the Ideal Way!
There are many homeschool parents on youtube if you just search for how to homeschool. A lot of the videos opened my eyes and gave me the confidence to pull my kids out of public school this year and homeschool. It has been amazing and we will never be going back to public school! Best wishes to you
Me too!

Alex clark is the best! Go listen to her interviews about homeschooling and daycares ! So goooood
She is correct on every level. My wife quite the work force after our first child to stay home and to train our children ourselves. My oldest is 19 years old now and I am very proud of how my children turned out. From Canada.
Train haha that’s exactly how I think about it my wife is doing the same.
My wife is doing the same. It was tough in the beginning to support with one salary. But we adjusted well at the moment.
You do know that the majority of people who send their kids to school end up being just as proud right?
Notice how Patrick is quiet & observant, that is a sign of maturity. Whether he agrees or not, you can tell he is open.... Adam and the smurf hair are clearly on the defensive led by their emotions. Like weak broads they try and bully this woman.
Exactly!! Adam brings down the quality of PET all day long.
Because he's a father. And he's smart . The other 2 guys will understand when they have kids.
Blue hair is a homosexual which means they are not capable of having a conversation. I remember I had an incident with a gay black neighbor before I moved out of the lower levels. Gay and black is already a protected group. I asked him to listen and that we could find a solution he walked away screaming crying saying "talk to management" that day I realized I don't like homosexuals. Before that day I didn't care because it don't matter to me but because I noticed those shared behaviors I realized I don't have to like individuals who are not capable of a rational conversation nor do they have intentions in finding solutions but rather expressing their feelings in emotional tantrums making scenes. He was In the wrong and I tried to be a good person to explain to him something I had no obligation in doing. The homosexuals we have known thru family friends are always involved in domestic violence situations which leads back to the point of no emotional control. I wouldn't use the word homophobic because that implies fear or something as opposed to repulsive perception of someone based on their group sharing disfunctional traits that interfere with coexisting with other individuals in peace.
@@alexanderowobu2832 what you said is on point. Before I had my child, I couldn’t understand why anyone would homeschool. After I had my daughter, I started to really research all options because any parent would want the best for their child. In doing so, I started to see that there are many good things about homeschooling.
Well said, that was my exact thoughts.
School made me hate reading. I'm 27 and reading is my favorite hobby. I've learned more from reading after leaving high-school than I ever did while I was attending school. I agree with the lady
School made me hate learning.
But ever since I left I love learning, well self learning. Being able to learn things and or figure out how to do things on my own is just soo different and truly special.
In school they only teach you that there's only one way of doing it, they teach you how to be a slave for society instead of flourishing out of society.
In other words they teach you how to be apart of the system.
And I used too think marks were everything, I was a honor and a scholar student, but guess what all that hard work meant nothing in the real world.
If I'm being honest after grade 9 or grade 10 there's no point of going to school, well for me it was pointless wished I knew sooner but I didn't. Everyone sold me a false dream unfortunately.
Same scenario, but I didn't like reading till after college lol
My story exactly with school and reading... And now reading is one of my favorite things..
It's always the "socializing" issue. I'm so over it. I went to public school k -5 and private 6 -12 and I've been anti-social my entire life. My children attended private school since kinder. We moved and the only private school in the area had no room for my 4th grader and public school has never been an option for them solely because I don't like what the public school system is indoctrinating our children with. My husband and I decided to homeschool this year and so far all is flowing smoothly. We cover the basic subjects; math, ELA science and history. It's an education not an indoctrination. I hear horror stories from my niece's and nephews on how kids consider themselves cats and dogs and are purring and meowing, wearing tails, half are confused about their gender etc etc. The school system is a mess at the moment and if I must continue to homeschool them, then so be it.
This was a major reason why I took my kids out of public school this yr to homeschool, the culture of the other kids at school is horrific, it is dangerous with all this sexualization and weird gender ideology
Great discussion. 34 years ago before digital and the internet, I decided to pull my two kids out of school. They were 7 and 9 at the time. I was constantly questioned on a daily basis as it was not a known option at the time.
I began with home education and then switched to natural learning.
Our kids are now 31 and 28, both self employed, they have a solid group of friends of a variety of ages, are financially self sufficient, empathetic, great conversationalists, of high intelligence, life long learners and have good social values.
It’s so beautiful to have the level of closeness that we’ve always had. We constantly debated, they came to work with me on production sets. My son is pursuing his film career shooting and processing on 16mm of which he taught himself. My daughter is a life model in the arts industry, trains other life models and works part time in the medical industry.
I know I was ahead of my time, but being an entrepreneur myself for the last 28 years, I believed and rightly so, that teaching them how to imagine, create, think and sell would be the future of work. I was right.
They also travelled overseas with us, have since travelled overseas independently more than 3 times each.
I’ve always believed that if you can ‘sacrifice’ your time to be with your kids at home, it’s a viable option to consider.
Incase you’re wondering, my kids always had the option to choose school at anytime. My son wanted to enter highschool at 15. They put him two years ahead as his maturity and academics were far above. He then went to university. My daughter tried highschool for three months and then resigned. She found the classroom environment a disruptive place for learning.
It’s not for everyone. But it’s a valid option. With the internet there’s nothing you can’t learn on your own.
I 100% agree with this lady. We've homeschooled our kids for their entire schooling. No other way. Especially with how perverse today's school system is.
You should get your tax money back since you didn't send your kids to public schools. Just my opinion...
@@rtquest22 would not disagree with that.
She's a goober and so are you.
Your home is probably ten times more perverse than any school
@@eugenen1585 I'm naked right now!
The amount of scrutiny and condescending demeanor coming from aDaM and grapehead is ridiculous. Not even lending a proper ear and listening to what she has to say, if they were truly for education then they wouldn’t be so defensive and would want to learn from her. Props to Mr Patrick who is calm, quiet, stoic and listening to everything and not judging and truly trying to learn something. Much love Mr Patrick 🫶🏽
That's bc Patrick is actually smart
Welcome to Destiny's world.. he such an ass.
@@financialdecimation yup
I do think he should have shut the soy boys up a little so she could finish her thought even though she didn't do a very good job. She did make some goog points though.
Destiny is not known for letting other people talk. He waits for others to breathe to speak up and for the gotcha moments.
The SAT, ACT tests are for colleges. The most important thing people can learn, is how to learn and teach themselves and free thinking. Happiness is very important for childhood development, and a sense of accomplishment and understanding and knowing that you can find a way to accomplish things on your own. The is huge for self confidence
The fear of homeschool kids not socializing is an old fear. My understanding is kids in public school largely use text message to communicate and struggle to communicate thoughts and feelings in person.
It's almost like we forget people were "homeschooled" for thousands of years
It's almost like we forget that generalized education is what pulled 'people' out of poverty and allowed 'people' to be literate.
Dumb argument
💯
The people that forget obviously were taught in public school lol. Can't let them find out that humans can learn anywhere.
FreshmenBolts: And until rather recently, a LOT of people were poorly educated, couldn't read or write much, and could get by doing purely manual work.
Today to get a decent job one needs STEM skills, etc, and things are RADICALLY different. So there's that.
I helped homeschool my friend's daughter , and it really turned her life around.
She was falling into a group of bad friends, plus she had excessive deficits in math.
After an intense year, she returned to ps a year ahead in math, she no longer liked the kinds of friends she used to have, and she complained that her vocabulary was so expanded past her new friends that they didn't know what she was talking about.
That is Success! Today she is a college educated video editor who is sought out for her amazing skill. She is also happy.
💯
My son has been homeschooled for about a year now and it’s the best decision we’ve made by far. Reading, writing and pretty much everything improved dramatically in a short period of time. It was very eye opening to see it. I wish more people had the opportunity to do it.
I took my son out of public high school in 2016 as soon as I realized the direction the curriculum was going. The homeschool community is a lot bigger than people think. They have homeschool centers where your child is in a classroom. Instead of 30 kids there’s 10. Homeschool students have field trips. They can get credit for so many things that public schools don’t offer. The homeschool community has events on the weekends. They have prom and graduations ceremonies. My son thrived as a homeschool student. It was the best decision I ever made.
Michelle: So what was what you didn't like re the curriculum? That evolution is scientific fact? Or what? If you give NO information, we can't tell if you're talking about politics, about quality of education, or what.
That lady is a champ getting hit on both sides and not losing her cool. I was homeschooled and my wife and I are homeschooling our kids. Its not for everyone but I agree with her.
Same here
They were completely unnecessarily combative! They have no idea how tired their arguments are- shows they’ve done ZERO research themselves about the dynamics of homeschooling. 🙄🙄🙄
My daughter home schooled during covid, what a difference, she went from a C average student to a A student. She has since gone back and she is still an A student but hates school, she feels like it is a huge waste of time. She wants to go back on homeschool so she can get a job and pursue her hobbies with the extra free time. When she was on home school she was only spending 2-3 hours a day on school work. In school she spends most of her day there and feels like she is wasting 90% of it.
This lady did a great job answering the loaded questions. When you homeschool you live a normal social life where the kids see people all day everyday around the couple hours of curriculum lol. The way people assume it is- is what we are educating people on, it's very different that what we grew up thinking as public school kids
Home learning is the way to go! This women is extremely competent. Admirable.
Every parent knows how lame it sounds when a sentence begins with:
“I don’t have kids myself but I have a nephew/niece……” then proceeds to talk to you like an expert on parenting.
Exactly this! Adam needs to STFU about topics he has zero stake or experience in.
Homeschooling mom here, I’m not enslaved to my kids and is not a sacrifice, I love being with them and they enjoy being with me. We don’t have money, we learned to live on one income, it’s doable. Education is not putting info on a test and then forgetting about it. Education is learning and learning how to learn on your own. I agree with her 💯
they want to make it sound as a sacrifice
💯❤
💯👏🏾👏🏾
Absolutely agree. Our kids are only young for a brief time and there is nothing I would rather do than spend this time with my kids, nurturing their gifts.
Isn't that dependent on the size of that one income? Average US worker makes 37K a year. I don't see think that is doable
I never let schooling get in the way of my education ~Mark Twain.
I was terrible in school, the cookie cutter way of "teaching" didn't work for me. I tried home schooling for 1 year which was the 9th grade. Didn't even finish it instead I got my G.E.D. but what I did learn is life skills and critical thinking from my family. I learned trade jobs from people with decades of hands on experience that you could NEVER get from school. There's nothing that I've found that I can't do or learn about if I'm interested in it.
I will absolutely be schooling my children. Their learning will be spilt up in the day between me and my wife. We work different shifts. That time means the world to me.
Thank you Sam for going onto the show. You were Awesome! Thank you Patrick for bringing content for everyone to help us all expand our minds and views!

PROS TO HOMESCHOOLING : Undivided attention, endless conversations, endless questions, critical thinking conversations, NO cramming or rushing through curriculum, we take our time until the child understands and comprehends the concepts, indoor/outdoor locations settings, parent chooses the curriculum education books, less time is wasted and more time is utilized for learning, no more worries of bulling, special need kids are attended more efficient, MOST IMPORTANT THING ABOUT HOMESCHOOLING IS THAT IT IS INDIVIDUALIZED FOR THE STUDENT - NO MORE ONE SIZE FITS ALL GOVERNMENT PUBLIC EDUCATION that has been a complete FAILURE !
You did a great job on this post, I feel like they gave her a hard time and she missed a lot of the big points.
Amen to that 🙏
Cons: Many parents aren't good at teaching math, history, etc plus educating is maybe taking time they don't have each day in the week, worse for monoparental families. Unless you organize with many parents, that's another story.
@@pistoluity The pros outweigh the cons big time. Stop being negative and if u can't provide premium education for your children, well then maybe u shouldn't have any children. Or don't be complaining when your kids don't grow into the adults you wanted them to be
@@stevegwizzle3560 I'm giving my personal opinion and I think you're wrong. 1) A lot of parents don't have time or skills or knowledge or willingness to educate their kids about math, language, history, science. Teaching a group of kids from teachers while parent work is more efficient and realistic for society. 2) I find funny you tell me to not being negative while saying you would rather have less kids than having ones attending schools. Is the US public school system that bad compared to Canada's? 3) Because your kids grow into adults you wanted them to be isn't automatically a good thing. Kids best interests isn't always the parents priority, especially when your population is largely uneducated on many topics. Anyway, I'm not sure what you infer here, like you imply public schools produce objectively bad adults or something... Anyway, I don't say homescholing can't be good, I'm just saying it's unrelalistic to have it this way for everyone. School sucks, but it's not a reason to not try improving it. That's my view on it.
One of the major cons of the public school system is that you too often end up with people like purple haired guy.
Beautifully said. You made my day.
😄😄
Well said 👏🏾
Facts!
Even worse the guy with no kids who has no idea what he's talking about but a lot of opinions
She is right, your co-host seem to judge instead of listen to her point of view. I wish I could do it. In my community I have seen the home school group out learning. Their was about 15 of them on a tour of my workplace at a arts studio. They did not seem sheltered at all. They appeared smart and well rounded. I can’t do it because I have to work but If I could I would definitely hire a home school teacher.
Sacrifice: giving up something for something better. It’s never a con. Thank you David!
She's good. She totally held her own in this conversation
I would disagree. A lot of people who preach homeschooling don't acknowledge that most families can't afford to have one parent not work or work less to have them be able to homeschool. Out of the whole population, it's a relatively small percentage that can afford to do this.
@@joebriggs5781 strange that I grew up in poverty and was home educated before it was cool. Dad worked and mom stayed home.
@@DanielCurrier you have the same issue that she does. You’re unable to process that just because it was a viable option for your family doesn’t mean it is one for others, especially now in this era where most families have to have both parents work full-time.
@@joebriggs5781 the problem is most don't need both working. 1) many grow liabilities, conveniences, and entertainment so they spend more than the past generations. 2) many don't know how to increase wealth. 3) many don't realize two parents working (with all the extra expenses) often don't come out as well financially as assumed. 4) there are many home based jobs/side gigs that offset expenses.
The problem is many like yourself have a limited one dimensional understanding of the world, can't pivot, can't think outside the box, don't know how to run numbers, don't maximize resources, desire entertainment over self education of increasing wealth, and don't value the most important parts of life.
I’m a 24 year old electrical engineer and computer scientist. In the future I’m going to home school my children. I learned much more out of school than in school. School is just day care for families while the parents go off to work. Looking back the education was dull and politically biased and at the same time I’ve seen kids behavior change cause they got caught up in the wrong crowd which is another problem with public schools the lack of moral instruction. If you have a 105+ IQ, know how to read and know how to use a search engine there’s almost nothing you can’t learn yourself
Facts
I was homeschooled all the way with the exception of one year at a Catholic school. I can honestly say that the Catholic school did not benefit me academically. I did learn how to run through crosscountry though.
I've led teams of engineers for years. I don't care what your grades were... I want to know if you'll work.
Grades don't matter when my boss expects x amount done in a month.
Exactly. Indoctrinated with immoral and political attitudes and biases
How are you going to homeschool your kids when you have to work being an electrical engineer?
I live in NY and I started homeschooling 2 years ago. I also had the idea that I had to teach all day but in reality it takes about 3 hours a day. And that leaves you with lots of time to do home-ed stuff and to socialize them in different classes, youth groups at church, time spent with family etc.
Guys, she whipped your tails. As a Christian I totally agree with her. My and I have our son in the Christian private school. But, we are thinking about homeschooling him, we believe it’s a much better choice.
Patrick, please train your cohosts on how to conduct an interview. I'm surprised you allow their behavior on your platform.
Agreed
Definitely, both these dude's act like kids Pat.
Agreed
yeah tell the successful man how to run his show lmao im sure he will be more than happy to take advice from a rando loser in his comments section.
Yup
I have home educated my three kids for five years now.
The pros are: 1.Academics-choosing curriculum that aligns with your values and child’s level of rigor, customize learning for each kid, and focus where the interests are for your child.
2. Environment-you control the environment your children learn in and are raised in, No bullying, not having your kid being exposed to vices from other kids ie. being shown Porn on someone’s iPhone at recess, never gonna have a school shooting or have a dude wearing a dress sexually assault your daughter in the bathroom, and never will have a teacher sexually assault your child. The sexual assault examples are not common but do happen enough in public schools to pose a risk.
3. Values- You are able to establish your children’s value system. Teach them what is good, true, and beautiful and why. This also means you are not needing to de-program your kids when they get home from school or having your kid rebel against you because they are taking in their teachers views as their own. Ultimately your child will decide what is true for themselves but during the rearing stage of life, it’s the parents job to shape them. There is no neutral ground in the home or in the school. Wherever your child goes, they are being messaged to and proselytize by someone.
The cons are:
1. It can be a lot of work for the parent to teach. It is a sacrifice. The most common thing I hear from parents is, “ I could never home school because I don’t have the patience.” The truth is no one has enough patience, but you do your best and learn yourself how to help each of your kids. It’s just like parenting. If you can parent, you can teach.
2. Financial cost. You are losing an income if you had a two income household. You are paying for your kids tuition twice; once in the property taxes that funds the public schools and in the supplies and curriculum that you must purchase for home education.
3. Socialization must be intentional. Kids need to be around other kids. We put our kids in sports, church/camps, and they spend time with their cousins who home educated too. Kids reflect who they spend time with. If your kid is around other immature kids for 7 hours a day all week long, then they will act like that. If your kids are interacting with adults and having conversations with adults, they will level up in their maturity. They also will seem less jaded and rebellious.
I take it year by year. I view the education and rearing of my kids as my responsibility because my wife and I brought them into the world; it’s not the state’s responsibility. I view home education as my duty and a necessity because of how toxic and screwed up the public school system is. I’m open to private education too if one day we can afford it.
Hope that helps.
Very enjoyable comments. I wish you were part of the interview.
My daughter choose to finish high school in homeschool. She was tired of teachers talking about taking a shot and the teachers giving thier political views. She ended graduating early, now at 17 she has two jobs and is learning about financial responsibility.
It is within my opinion that healthy communication with mommy and daddy helps children communicate with others in the world.
My friend home schools all three of his children, he works full time,starts learning at 4am kids have chores,and then kids have tasks... all of his kids are on a levels... all under 15 years old,they play tennis,they swim.... dad works mum works kids are mature and well adjusted mature confident...
How do you know what goes on in that house? You aren't there.
@@bonzocleach2496 his children sat their gcse a year ago! His children are playing professional tennis,I don't need to know the logistics proof in pudding..no failing there for sure!! Don't hate !
And we're not talking about a happy marriage he's been home schooling his kids for three years!! Go take a seat!!!
@@miss1905 Sure they are playing professional tennis. What are their names? You won't know of course because your story is made up. Seriously, you need to work on your make believe stories.
@@bonzocleach2496 what reason do I have to lie? You clearly have some bitter insecurities and resentment ,if you're unhappy with hearing positive stories go away!
To her 1st point, if your kids are at school 8 hrs a day, the school will see them more than the parents, by default the school (teachers, curriculum, other students bad or good, etc) will possibly have more influence than the parents.
bad influence, not positive influence.
So what? Who's making the money and working to support the family.
@Bonzo Cleach they wouldn't homeschool if they couldn't afford to 🤦♂️. This is a dumb question. Who are you to question one's decision to decide to homeschool vs having some stranger teach their kids just because you think they should work more to bring home more money, while some strangers raise and teach their kids? Why do you care if they tighten up the purse strings in order to be sure their children are taught the type of education, morals, values, etc. they want their children to have vs allowing some stranger that opportunity? To me, this shows they care more about their children than to allow some stranger the opportunity to raise their kids with their morals, values and style of education over themselves. Respect to homschool parents who value the idea of raising and teaching their children themselves vs letting strangers do it for them
@@lowdown49 What are you talking about? Of course people make poor decisions to their financial detriment all the time. Homeschooling can easily be one those. Who says you can't learn from a stranger. How long do you think a teacher remains a stranger? You sound like one seriously sheltered goober. I can question anybody I want to question. That's who I am. You must be homeschooled. This country gets more expensive to live in all the time. You have to make money while you can. Taking a break from working only works for the small minority of people who already have wealth. Tell me what the cost of an average three bedroom house is in your neighborhood. Both parents need to be pulling an income.
@Bonzo Cleach you are the problem with this country making stupid assumptions and using childish name calling ad hominems to try and make an argument. People can choose to homeschool if they want without immature judgemental people questioning their reasoning. When you have more ideologues and predators indoctrinating and grooming children in the public school system today, I would say homeschooling is a MUCH better option so that parents can be sure their children don't get taught the immoral values and political vues of some ideologue that they don't agree with. It is happening at a major rate today, so much so that our country is being torn on half. The public school system has become a major failure, putting ideology and cult loke religion in the classrooms disguised as education. If a parent chooses to homeschool their child yiu have no right to question. Mock or ridicule them. If you want to send your child to a public school that is your choice. Parents don't HAVE to have 2 incomes to make ends meet. They simply have to change priorities to make sure they have the necessities in order to pay the bills while 1 patent stays home. I certainly would NEVER take advice from someone like you when it comes to finances. Anyone can do it, if they make the right choices in life and don't put themselves in financial debt. Make wise financial decisions and you can make ends meet. My mom worked part time and my dad would work 2-3 jobs to make sure we had someone home when school was out and we had the money to buy the things we needed. I went to public school back when they actually just educated kids and didn't have to coddle them or use special pronouns and couldn't fly cult flags like BLM and gay flags in the classroom. A time when teachers wouldn't have a political agenda and bully students over politics in the classroom. Even though my mom worked part time with 4 boys, we were still able to play sports all throughout our childhood, have a boat and motorhome and take vacations to go camping every year and go to the lake and fish and ski most of the year. But hey. I guess stupid people like you will make ignorant arrogant snap judgements and and use childish ad hominems in a forum such as this because it gives cover for you to say things you wouldn't dare say to others faces
I homeschool my kids and they are all in sports and not at all anti-social. Public schools are a waste of time. It's a prison system where children are talked at and told to be quiet while sitting in a box all day. My kids get to socialize way more than just the time between classes and lunch, wow that guy is so ignorant..
The guy with no children should be quiet, listen and learn. This woman is so on point. When she said the con is trying to replicate or bring the school paradigm into the home, she is so right!!! I did that my first year after taking my kids out of public school. It doesn't work!
I’ve done BOTH and what this lady is trying to get them to understand is SPOT ON! She just struggles to articulate to them effectively. I went to Graduate School to teach, and I left Grad School because it’s nothing but POLITICs! ALL of my kids are LIGHT YEARS ahead of their peers because I educated them at home. There is NOTHING like ONE ON ONE instruction!
You can't be trusted. You've provided zero criteria except your weak story. Your kids are most likely less than exceptional. One on one instruction is great if your teacher is an expert on the subject. You're not an expert on anything.
Maybe if Adam and Destiny were quiet for two minutes and not condescending she could articulate it.
@@gavinhemmerlein1241 ABSOLUTELY AGREE! Target did keep cutting her off. Thankfully I know what she’s trying to articulate. She’s SPOT ON!
She is creepy. Her view is that the only value her children are meant to develop is a mindless regard for her. A good parent wants to raise an independent child with a mind of his own. This degree of control she's boasting is borderline incestuous.
You're telling me your kids benefited from having one-on-one instruction from a parent trained as an educator? Shocking!
I not sure why the guy in purple hair was trying so hard to challenge a woman that home schools her kids when he clearly was never in her shoes. Let her finish speaking guys geezzz.
She said school was child abuse you gotta say something because that’s a wild statement
Long story short... it's because he thinks he's alot smarter than he actually is.
We are NOT raising “kids”, we are raising “future adults”. I never thought once of homeschooling my kids, because the misconception I had was that kids that were homeschooled were weird and socially awkward. But I have to say, I have quite a few friends who have homeschooled their kids and they all are extremely social and well versed. They look me in the eye and know how to carry on a convo.
The funny thing is my brother and his wife are both teachers, but my nephew and niece can’t form or hold a full conversation. In their Aunt, and they still can’t look me in the eyes when talking to me. They weren’t always like this.
I finished all my school work Math History English Lit Advanced Science and College Prep Courses in 3 hours, every day Monday through Friday.
We brought in a homeschool accredited teacher and I knew what I needed to do to finish my year out.
Why are these guys being so rude and intense with this woman? They're terrified of this idea of homeschooling like a child is scared of a monster. So hilarious and sad at the same time lol.
Because she's even more close minded than they are. You're just projecting an emotional response because you're all in on homeschooling.
@@bonzocleach2496 growing up, public schools actually did educate in math, science, proper grammar, & history. Then added a few electives such as art, computer science, music, & physical education... today public schools are teaching racism, gender, & anatomy that focuses on sexual organs.... how is that better than homeschooling or private school?
@@theformulated1 Give me a break. Your DEEP into the right wing conservative propaganda that all public school teachers are grooming children and telling kids white people suck. It's hyped up nonsense. Teachers don't have time for that nonsense. You must be a Fox News watching goober!
My issue with public schools is the cost. I'm in Illinois. Nearly 70 percent of my $11,300 .00 property tax bill goes to the schools.
@@bonzocleach2496 I don't see Fox nor CNN... & public schools are run by democrats. They're grooming kids in Chicago, how are you not aware of this?
@@bonzocleach2496 your post was taken down.... did you post "misinformation?".... lol
You have your assumption that I watch Fox, you state that as a fact when in fact you don't know. Now with that said, with your post being removed, can I assume that you're actually a conservative posting misinformation? Or do democrats also lie?
I do home-educate my son and the questions asked have no sense, because they are not understanding that educating a kid is different that teaching academic topics. What I mean is that educating my son includes academic topics but also spiritual topics, personal development, finances, sports, etc.
My feeling is that you don't get the answers because your mind is limited to the concept of academic learning in a school.
I don't think it's ridiculous to be asked or to say your top three best benefits to home schooling. It's perhaps not something she's thought about to put into words, in reality there are probably dozens and dozens of small and large benefits.
Public school districts when you really start paying attention to their politics, their intentions and the B.S. they put our kids through, wasting their time, they expose themselves as having thousands of reasons to avoid public school.
If you're not paying attention at all and are educated by the fake commie media then you will think public school is your only choice and that moms should see them selves as "birth parents" must give up their rights, their legacy and need to be tax payers to gov rather than true care givers to their families. Gotta pay Ukraine and lick the jackboots, can't have family autonomy.
I really appreciated this conversation
Patrick many blessings and much respect your cohost, I haven't seen anything from thats coherent regardless he's not one sided so blessings

Stop talking over her, interrupting her! There were things I wanted to hear🦋
Same
she is so solid on this and wins the argument hands down, they have to defy logic to even come up with stance against her
I am an advocate for homeschooling as long as the parent doing the teaching is patient and has a network of support to fill in for any weak spots. In our case, we utilized co-ops and local junior colleges to help fill in the gaps when our high school students were in subjects that we could not cover. That allowed them to also get college credit in high school. However, there are many parents that are not equipped to homeschool. They may be overwhelmed with impatience, be completely stressed out and end up with bad relationships with the children. Be sure to homeschool with love and an open heart, and not fear and a closed mind. This woman is to be commended for her willingness to homeschool, but homeschooling will not guarantee her children won’t make up their own minds about what they believe culturally and otherwise when they’re adults.
Exactly. It's not for everyone. Not all parents are fit and in financial secure situation to homeschool their children. I say utilize both. The lady is an amazing woman however she can't confirm how her kids turn out yet (she based on her feelings and not common standards). Ask her kids to take either ACT or SAT, or return in 5 years-time and find out her kids' progress.
The US education system is abysmal to be honest. There is quite literally no academic rigour whatsoever.
K-12 issupposedlynvery bad, but college is supposed to be the best. Supposedly. One of my parents friend's is a retired teacher and came to Christmas dinner and talked mostly about how education has dumbed down people to the point where she is frightened for her grand children's future.
@@sdrc92126 - college is now identity politics contests, anti-white rhetoric, anti-american rhetoric - race war building and for a few people, enduring thousands of hours of that garbage just to get to the engineering stuff.

@@michaelbuddy I've been on the internet (in various forms) since the 80's. I notice a very hard turntowards anti-ameticanism around maybe 2005ish. I looked and found various explanations for this, but it never seemed natural. I have no idea what collge is now
I was always told that the purpose of school was get you to think. This is where public schools have dropped the ball. My son doesn't think at all, just memorizes everything
this is the real goal of course. Non thinking drones are easier to control
My ability to reason is the most valuable part of my learning. That was nurtured in my home anc from spending time with my grandparents and great-grandparents. I was receiving home learning.
One major benefit of homeschooling, kids being able to complete their sleep cycles and wake up when their sleep ends naturally, refreshed, and enthusiastic to face the day. Instead of the misery of being forced awake every day, in the dark during winter, and being pressured to go go go to meet that horrible early morning deadline the school imposes on them. Rural kids have to wake up at an even more unnaturally early hour to stand around in the dark cold morning waiting for the bus to come, and endure the mind numbing commute every day- not to mention what social garbage they have to deal with every day on the bus. Not even touching on what goes on at school which is often toxic social dynamics, for many kids. It's not natural, it's not necessary.
She’s right , the public school system screwed up my kid.
I call it indoctrination station. Growing up i had so many problems at school cause i saw through the bs and rebelled. 20 years later my parents apologized and said they wish they listened to me. Great that people are finally seeing

I homeschooling for 17 years. My kids thanked me for it.
Coming from a Home schooled family there are pros and cons to both. I truly believe I got a better education than most people who went to an actual school private or public. I believe not being bullied or stressed in certain environments helped me greatly with learning. I also believe that having the sports in schools would have been fun also. It’s different strokes for different folks to me!
I went to public school and my husband was homeschooled. I’m dyslexic and school offered me no help whatsoever. My husband knows more about history, grammar, business skills, math, while as an adult I still struggle. I hated school. I had health problems and teachers treated me like garbage for needing the bathroom a lot or missing days due to pain or surgeries. I do not trust the public school system with my children. My sons are homeschooled.
When you send your children to Cesar don’t be surprised when they come back Roman’s.

I took Choir class in middle school. Most other boys took band or general music, I was a very quiet person, but I liked music alot. The choir teacher noticed that I was quiet, and she constantly would say to me, sing louder, speak up. . . Towards the middle of second year, came the Christmas play. "A Christmas Carol". Whoever wanted to audition wrote their names down. I had no desire to audition or even be in the play for that matter, and didn't sign up for any part. Then came the day of auditions, for the roles of scrooge and bob cratchit, both one of the major roles, and has a singing solo in the play. The teacher calls my name out first to audition. i was caught off guard. . So i walk to the mic, find the words, and she begins to play on piano. I literally only got a chance to let out half a second since opening my mouth, and the teacher stops playing, says, "that's enough. go back to your seat." yet she cast me for the role. To this day I am glad she did. I am glad that I was put on the spot out of my comfort zone, because the whole play is a great memory from my childhood, even though i did a terrible job playing Bob Cratchit.
As a homeschool mom, she is absolutely correct. My children were tainted with public school before I took them out. I see a MASSIVE difference in my children after taking them out of public school.
Smurf boy needs a good knuckle sandwich. Notice how Pat is sitting quietly, he knows she's right!
Purple hair's metric is that his child is a drone servicing the system. Sorbo wants her children to be actualized. He cannot comprehend her perspective.

I’m a 20 year career teacher and public education is terrible with the politics and no one looking out for kids.
Home educator here. My son has a master’s in electrical engineering. I taught them to learn. All 6 of my grands are home learners. My oldest granddaughter finished HS a year early and earned an amazing scholarship in a STEM field. Most of her home educated peers got major scholarships. My son is the only engineer in his group that can communicate without saying “like” 4,000 times. My daughter is educating her children both with learning disabilities (one with autism) but who are awesome learners. She pulled her children from public school bc they were not being taught to read but were being grouped into classes with kids with with various learning difficulties. They were bullied and taught they were stupid (they are NOT).
If I had it to do over again, I’d do more unschooling. We could have done a field trip with our homeschool group every week, sports and church 3 times per week gave them enough socialization. Socialization isn’t always good. In fact, socialization is a big word meaning peer pressure!
This great lady simply ate those two guys lunch. Public school is absolutely terrible.
I’m with the woman on this one. A single man with purple hair and minimal parental experience doesn’t have much of a argument
Just graduated the last of all four of our home educated kids. Oldest graduated from college with honors and a finance degree and works for a national commercial real estate firm. His twin is in the army and doing well, (although he’s currently frustrated with the lack of discipline in many other soldiers). Third child is an artist, started her own business at 16 and has a waiting list of clients. Oh and she has severe learning disabilities and would have been in special education in PS. Instead, she was able to spend hours a day honing her craft and has pride in knowing that she can bring joy to so many people. Fourth child is getting an online college degree, because it’s half the price, and she will graduate without debt.
Home education is the best thing we ever did for our family and for each individual child. IMO, the biggest “pro” is my kids not being state-socialized. And the biggest “con” is having to answer stupid questions about socialization.
Congrats to your family!
God bless you and your family. Your story and experience brings joy.

@@bonzocleach2496 lol that was his choice, not mine, and at least he is prepared to think for himself and not fall for the propaganda. Definitely not a fairy tale (did you miss the part about a special needs kid?), but it’s real life, and I’m proud of them.
@@5thgentexan95 Nonsense, you sound like the typical goober who gets all their information on public schools from crazy right wing social media. You goobers are so full of your own propaganda you don't have a clue.
I was homeschooled my whole life up until high school. Looking back I should’ve just stayed homeschooled, I learned way more that way than I ever did in HS. But, I wanted the “experience”. My baby is 2 months right now but I already plan on homeschooling him ♡.
As a public school teacher of 15 years, who now homeschools, I'd love the opportunity to come on and speak to this subject. I am in NC also! Our homeschool league has a co-op that has enrolled over 250 students and we are in a small rural area! We also have a homeschool sports league. Our teens have a group that meets regularly. My son, who is an only child, interacts in person with his peers at least 4-5 days out of the week. Also, people generally do not understand just how much time is spent on non-instructional tasks during the typical public school day. 🙄
I have decided to homeschool my children and I live in NC. What support groups are out there?
Not even a minute in to this one... Adam & the purple haired guy must have had really awful parents if they couldn't handle being around them. Heck, the purple haired guy says he was homeless at one point and preferred being homeless! Or maybe the problem was with them and not with the parents.
The public school system is crippling for the black community. Which is unfortunate because so many black families are single parent homes and younger kids can't be left at home alone. We, especially, need to get our kids out. My son is 6. He turned 6 this past October. He's reading on a third grade level and doing second grade everything else. He's actually moving to third grade spelling tomorrow. We homeschool. We're ordinary people of above average but not genius level intelligence. He's so far ahead of his peers it would be to his detriment to put him in public school. Because black kids, especially black male students, are excluded from advanced classes and disproportionately targeted for disciplinary measures. He's six. He is very much emotionally six. He's a very active, easily distracted little boy. Most six year old boys are. But mine would be in trouble because all of that energy would be forced to adhere to standards of less than mediocrity because "black kids can't read, write or do math."
Keep up everything you are doing!!
They are white and will NEVER try to understand! Preach sister!
You are very fortunate to have an opportunity to do this. We were unable to homeschool our children because both parents had to work full-time to meet our physiological needs, but public school did not work well for them all and all. They were much more well adjusted before we sent them to school, and are beginning to find themselves more successfully now that they are out of school. It only takes a few discriminating staff members to do lasting damage. I know because I had a few of those teachers when I went to school as well. We absolutely need homeschooling more than anyone, congratulations being able to provide this, it is not a reasonable option for many of us.
Balance! That is the answer for me. As a mother of two children I can’t imagined be the teacher of my own child teaching academics. I already stressed by teaching the basics of every day!
veronica yunes: How about the balance of parents being involved enough and willing to help enough in spots the kid might be stuck, to ensure the kid has the opportunity and motivation to get a decent education in public school?
That's how it was in my day in the 60's, 70's, and it worked well overall for the vast majority of kids who tried and took college track classes.
It would have been awesome if she answered the "what do you consider success" question with. "I consider my kids a success if they dont paint their hair blue"....
The best way to explain the comparison and benefits of homeschooling Vs. Public schools would be to having a 'Personal Trainer' Vs. 'Public Gym'.
Not exactly because I've seen plenty of terrible personal trainers who do not know anything
Woe.....You just knocked that one out of the park. Good thing you weren't up there on the panel....you would of cut the show off in the first minutes. Great comment, Have a super New Year!
Benjamin Franklin left formal education at the age of 12 and proceeded to read books on his own.
and he apprenticed under his father's soap and candle making business.
100% agree with her. Its very difficult to have a discussion with people who are stuck in one way.
One of my son's began repairing computers at age 12 and before he graduated, he designed and built 4 high quality computers from parts. He struggled to read, and needed vision therapy to read. So we focused on his gifts. He could build almost everything both with wood and components.
I was home educated till about age 14, where I begged my mom to let me go to public school, and I feel like I got the best of both worlds because I believe learning at home for myself allowed me to become more efficient with my time, and to know I was capable, my mom used the Abeka books and I loved the science books and they had quizzes and tests in them where I would go back and study any that I got wrong so that I understood it better, when I went to public school they thought I was strange because I looked forward to exams, for me it was a chance to see how much I'd retained in my learning. Even though I considered myself shy I was confident enough to debate my teachers in science because of it being one of my favorite subjects and I learned it from a biblical perspective so when they taught the big bang theory as if it was fact I challenged them as to how it had any more weight than the creation theory and which one made more sense...to me a Creator made much more sense, in any case I am very thankful that my parents taught me those first 14 years because it gave me a base of confidence in them that allowed me to stand up against the world when it didn't align with my beliefs, after being in public school I lost that for a while, I think it taught me to conform and I was lost for a while. But then I came back to my base and thought about things again, why I believe what I believe being a Christian, and I found my confidence and fearlessness again and I am just so incredibly grateful for the way I was raised. It taught me great work ethic as well so I have been quite successful in all the different jobs I tried because I was efficient and hardworking. But it's a big topic and I have loads to say on it so I'll leave it at that, but if you're able to home educate your kids I think it's just awesome.
It’s good You questioned your teacher about the Big Bang theory have questioned someone about the biblical theory??
That’s great but you did write one heck of a run-on sentence there, babe. Periods are your friend.
Abeka is school at home... I don't blame you for begging to go to public school. You watch videos of kids in a class all day with that curriculum, not good
If you want to you can upload a video yourself, don't have to record your face, in that you are just talking like a power point presentation about that, since you have so much knowledge.
I’m with you on the creation vs big bang and even evolution. It was two conflicting ideas being taught to me and I ended up feeling confused and lost. Recently I have gone strongly back to my faith and the world makes much more sense. I don’t feel lost the way I did in public school
I’m on my second year homeschooling my boys (10 & 12) after them being public schooled.
I know now I should have always homeschooled them but we learn and grow and can’t change the past.
My boys are happier and our family is closer than it’s ever been. I’m picking their curriculum and teaching them how we see fit. I strive to teach them accurate history.
We are Christians so everything is taught with a biblical worldview. It’s been a wonderful decision and I will never put them back in state indoctrination camp ever again.
one thing I went thru is the bullying in public school from students and coaches...reason....I wore glasses, had a passive attitude as I was told...you don't fight in school...I got kicked out three times for finishing a fight. Being passive doesn't mean I can't fight. What irks me....the teachers never looked out for us....the adults in school...to busy hitting on the gorgeous French teacher in the mini skirt.
What till they are 15-16 honey. You will be enemy #1. They aren’t going to want Mommy breathing down their neck when they are teens. It gave me life long depression. Just from a woman who was homeschooled for 12yrs
Amazing she led this conversation well done
It's interesting to me that people think homeschooled kids have no socialization. They stay home with their parents and see no people outside that. My child has homeschool groups on Monday, Wednesdays and Fridays. He had 18 kids at his birthday party. He had 8 other kids trick or treating with him. No lack of socialization here.
