You opine: “CC has put more kids into homeschooling than anything else. It’s a shame too because public school is where kids learn to socialize, get into sports and other team building activities, etc. etc.”

Still swallowing that old canard?

Bulletin: Home schooled kids are not raised/schooled in a bubble. They ‘socialize” with people of all ages - a much more normal situation. they get more schooling in MUCH less time per day, leaving much more time for other pursuits - including time OUTDOORS - and they are legally allowed to play the sports at public schools, if they choose. And the parents and kids that are home schooled aren’t isolated - they have great local associations - gatherings, trips, projects. ,

They DO miss out on public school ‘socializing’ such as “sex” ed. taught by Planned Parenthood personnel, on gay/lesbian indoctrination, on classrooms with teachers espousing that historic hero, “Che”, and such - and upcoming ‘White Privilege” classes.

And homeschoolers aren’t as likely to get bullied without protection, or be surrounded by drugs, or have to start sharing bathrooms with members of the opposite sex who think they aren’t who they are...

I’ve know many homeschoolers - well adjusted, bright, accomplished, EDUCATED, etc.

The old saw of needing public school for ‘socializing’ hasn’t been true for decades...not the kind of ‘socializing’ experienced in public - aka Government Indoctrination Camps - schools today.

People - you need to EDUCATE yourselves on CC

look at these short clips - and others on the YouTube site

Thank you for clarifying this. I’m against CC and see home schooling as a good option. Not for everyone of course but those who are able and willing to put the time in for their kids; it’s great!

Home schooled kids won’t be able to pass the tests! Public and Private school kids who are smart have trouble passing the tests. This is the point! Homeschoolers can delude themselves until the freakin cows come home but this affects them too.
