My son has the attention span of a gnat and soaks up whatever interests him but can't be made to focus on a specific subject for longer than it takes him to blink. Public school isn't really good for him in terms of actual education right now, but the social and emotional kneecapping I'd be dealing him by pulling him out would be tantamount to child abuse. For every home school success story there's a hundred unironic shitposters being forged in the dark.

The perception is that people who homeschool are those who fear that public schools are indoctrinating their kids with liberal lies and phony science. While there's certainly a sect of people that do that, there's also the fact that if parents provide some sort of structure around their kid's learning, homeschooling is just as viable an option, if not better because as much as I hate to agree with drunky duck, homeschooled kids perform as well, if not better than public school kids. This ignores the fact that many families cannot homeschool effectively - both parents generally have to have a job to make ends meet, so this generally means that homeschooled kids end up being upper class. I was homeschooled until 7th grade. The math books I used in homeschool were actually fun and explained how to do the work. When I went to school, the textbooks I got were pure garbage and always required a teacher to explain the concepts. I always scored in the top percentile for standardized math tests, despite usually not doing that well for a math grade. The biggest issue with my public school, however, was that it was woefully underfunded; it relied on a levy with a public vote in a town with more elderly people that were pretty FYGM, so we were always screwed.

I'm not reading or commenting on That Fuckbarn Guy anymore. It's the same reason I don't make fun of Chrischan and his ilk, it's as lowbrow as mocking homeless people with severe mental illness. There's no point and it's enabling other bad behaviors by drawing attention to it.pwn posted:Check out the flag's stars yo.

My monocle just popped clean off because Jen Sorenson actually made a funny cartoon Mister Beeg posted:The Association of American Editorial Cartoonists are calling for independent investigation on the Rallgate thing.

There are times when it's necessary, like kids with serious illnesses. What I really didn't like, though, was when one of my students got in a fight. Normally he'd be suspended for ten days, but the principal put him into home school for the rest of the year, and I was having to send homework that he never did for months.

Isn't that more likely to be due to the parents not allocating enough time for socializing and teaching proper social etiquette than an inherent outcome of homeschooling? And it's not like public or private schools ever created any awkward weirdos, right?

The three types of home-schooled kids I've known: ones with smothers, ones with super religious parents, ones with super weird parents. Usually a combination of all 3. Some of them did fine academically but all of them were idiots in everything else they did. To be fair I grew up in a suburb of upper-middle-class white people whose riskiest behaviors involved asserting rights to feel powerful/challenged.

I was homeschooled through the ninth grade, and my high school experience was loving awful. Then again, I was a huge nerd who played Magic in the Japanese classroom every day during lunch, but it was a really bad way to experience high school, especially because that school was pretty much exclusively people that had been together as a cohort since the sixth grade, but I was such an unsocialized weird retard. See also: goon. Homeschooling should be banned, and anyone who complains gets shot in the dick.
