Quote:What do you think of homeschooling? I was homeschooled from kindergarten all the way through high school mainly due to religious reasons.
I think the results must vary alarmingly. EG two bright, tertiary educated ,secular parents ,vs two,average,less educated young earth creationist parents. (or vice versa)
I have only actually seen home schooling in action once; Staying with secular friends in Canada. Five girls, from age 3 to 12. No formal lessons,but every day,and often. The girls were enrolled in public schools when they reached high school. (French immersion) When tested,it was found they were ahead in every subject except math,in which they were of equal standard.
Wonderful,bright, happy kids,great to be around,and amazing parents.
