What are your opinions on homeschooling?

My opinion: Both have pros and cons.

I have heard that homeschooled kids are often better academically and more intelligent compared to average students. But they have bad social skills and have a lot of anxiety.

In normal school, you might have better social skills for sure. And you might grow up good if you don’t get influenced by the rotten people at school and if you don’t get into drugs or stuff due to peer pressure. But that’s IF YOU DON’T GET INTO THESE. If you get into these, good luck getting outta these. And there’s the concern of getting bullied too…

So I personally think homeschooling might be a better choice.

    Where I live, every principal is assigned a list of homeschooled children in their district and monitors their progress. If they are diligent, it seems to work out well. I know several well-adjusted, lovely children who have been homeschooled.

      Made my own post first but I highly approve of this! This is almost exactly what I was saying should be required by law as someome who didn’t get that but homeschooling still worked out great for me.
