And it's not like I'd expect the Kardashians to send their kids to LA Regional HS.
It was only a matter of time before HSing became chic. But I doubt any of these people would be caught dead in the DoodleBob co-op.
Ping...maybe...sort of....
I’m sure that they hire tutors. Can you imagine the cumulative stupid resulting from the Kardashians home-schooling their kids?
Don’t look now, but private tutors/schoolteachers for the children of the wealthy have been a thing for hundreds of years.
Meanwhile in Democratic urban run public schools despite record expenditures over 65% of 8th grade students are functionally illiterate and cannot do basic math. This was not the case with the same type of students in 1965.
Exactly. Either lazy ass parents( no matter what their day job is) or people to ignorant to be able to help their child
My thoughts exactly. The home in homeschooling isn’t a place. It would better be called, parentschooling. Well, that sort of sounds like parents getting an education, which is actually true if you have homeschooled. So let’s call it familyschooling. That’s more encompassing.
I homeschooled my children with the help of my wife. It started mostly from an academic perspective, but grew to be just as much about God, values, politics, and culture as my children grew older.
Since we were not rich, we had to improvise and make choices. Outsourcing is a choice, and it has negatives. The ideal of going to Yale is a choice. To be honest, that has tons of negatives. One of the important aspects about choices is weighing the positives and negatives. It is thinking. It is analyzing what is really needed and the value for the dollar. Children should be increasing exposed to those things and do those things. Outsourcing avoids that.
I made a lesson/project for my kids as a requirement to go to college. They had to do a cost-benefit analysis and determine opportunity costs of alternatives to going to college. They had to look at a wide range of colleges and alternatives. My eldest daughter decided to go to Penn State. My other daughter decided to travel the world. She’s settled down now and is working and going to college full time working on a business degree with a major in entrepreneurship. Two different approaches for two different kids. Both value education and excel.
I should note, education isn’t necessarily about making money. College debt can get in the way in accumulating wealth. My youngest daughter owns a rental property that provides income that is nearly double the mortgage payment. She also owns her own home and rents out a floor there. She was able to do that because she wasn’t straddled with college debt. Not bad for a girl who just turned 26. Now she works to feed herself, pay for school, transportation and her ongoing desire to travel. She won’t be straddled with college debt and she is building wealth using other peoples money.
Interesting business model. It sounds as though a plan could feature all-day supervision of the students, or alternatively, just teaching services while, I guess, nannies and drivers are in charge of the overall supervision.
