RE: Some Thoughts on Homeschooling
Public school is shit, here in Washington they are teaching gender studies in kindergarten as of this year. no student left behind has graduated many kids that cant even spell the street name around their own town. It has been proven over and over that home school children are way smarter then their public school counterpart.
I agree with what you said about how the weird kids have weird parents. If you home school and your kids never leave the house and don't go out and play with kids in the neighborhood then they will become anti social but that is all kids even the ones in school. homeschool is not t blame for that it is lack of interaction with other children when they are young. even often before they even enter school.
Children quickly lose the joy of learning new stuff because of school. they go into kindergarten wanting to lean everything in the world and by 3rd grade all the joy of learning has been stripped from them. It is a place so people learn to follow rules and to accept authority. Learn to sit at a desk for 8 hours a day and parrot facts without any real understanding of the subject. It is a place where they try to make people think like computer when that's not how our brains work.
With access to the internet I don't see any reason to send kids to school. If you instill the joy o learning and give them access to the information they are interested in they will learn more in a week then they would a year in a class teaching the same thing. you might even be able to find a website that covers your states mandatory curriculum.
Offten it comes down to time, a lot of parents couldn't survive without a place to send their kids for 8 hours a day so they can go to work to survive another week. If you have the ability and time to home school Then do it
IMO at least.
That school paper was pure SJW propaganda. #6-7 are pretty bad too. im interested to see the rest of the questions on that school test. also good for the parents to send that back to the teacher like that.
Yeah we see the results of no fucktard left behind at work. Most people can't fill out a form to save their life. They can't write a sentence, not to mention a paragraph.
You're right on about losing the joy of learning. You can't learn if you can't ask a question and if you do you end up with a moronic answer even a 6 year old knows is pure bullshit. The whole purpose of going to school is to become conditioned to attend a facility for the entire day and sit there in the same spot with only the pre-designated breaks. There is literally nothing taught for the most part except how to sit in one spot. The parts of the curriculum that are worthwhile aren't presented in a way where they make sense. Math is pretty handy for calculating Steemit rewards but who gives a fuck why Jack went and gave two apples to Jill?
On the internet now that I've been looking into education it's a double-edged sword. A lot of online courses are designed by money-grabbing morons. Anyone can publish a course out of his asshole. But I think that'll change in time.
Yeah its quickly changing and their should be a lot of online schools pooping up and we should start to see competition for price and quality soon. Anything has to be better then public schooling at this point.
I'd like to see educated teaching professionals start up online schools. Some PhD's or something. Not just a bunch of fuckwits with 'alternative ideas'.
anything has to be better then gender studies in kindergarten like public school is here in Washington.
