I’m all for home schooling, but when you take a look at most (yes, most) of the parents out there this would be an unmitigated disaster of biblical proportions if done on a massive scale.
Half the urban parents out there never graduated themselves, and of those who did I would estimate most don’t have the self discipline to do it correctly, or be even willing to take the time either. Some kids can thrive in public schools because they have what it takes to get the most out of it, no matter how bad it is there for many it is far worse at home.
If you think that most public school teachers have an agenda they are pushing can you imagine what some of the kids being home schooled would be getting?

Our government schools are a massive failure on a biblical scale!
If every government school were to be razed to the ground tomorrow, the **same** children who are getting an education today would get one tomorrow. The **same** children who are wallowing in ignorance today would still continue their downward slide of illiteracy and innumeracy tomorrow!
Why?
Answer: Because the **ONLY** children who are getting an education in the U.S. today are AFTERSCHOOLED or HOMESCHOOLED!!! It is the parents and the children themselves who are doing the hard work IN THE HOME!
And...Yeah! As for this post and the previous post, I am shouting, jumping up and down, and having a fit!
Oh, homeschooling is NOT for everyone, and it’s not for anyone who doesn’t want to do it, that is for sure. Smaller private schools or uniquely special public schools will do. But your average big city public schools are more often than not a JOKE. Sometimes they do more harm than good.
