They are not mutually exclusive - I can prepare my kids for life, while the school prepares them for college.
What would be immoral for me to do is to try an amateur attempt at homeschooling, when I am not committed to the task.
Not everyone can home-school....and if those that do aren’t preparing their kids for college, they’re doing it wrong.
And a kid should never have to choose between and F and being PC...they should choose a better college in the first place.
Good luck with that.
IMO, kids are better off at home, no matter what you do with them.
Have you ever wondered why everyone in the country has to take two units of foreign language, Trig, etc. Step waaaay back and think about it. Who sez? Why? Look into the origin of "Carnegie units." You probably recognize the name. Why is education measured in "student hours"?
Compulsory schooling, as we know it today, was largely formulated by Carnegie and Rockefeller. What was their goal? Why did they fund the first teacher colleges?
Look up Thorndike, Pavlov, and schooling. Bismark. The Know Nothings and Blaine Amendments. Dewey and Columbia Teacher's College. Horace Mann and phrenology. And his ludicrous report to the Boston School Committee.
The story of compulsory schooling is bizarre and nefarious.
Everything you've been taught about compulsory schooling is a lie or a whitewash.
I highly recommend "The Underground History of American Education."
I bitterly resent what "they" did to my head in school. You should too.
