More and more parents are choosing homeschooling. Between private schools and homeschooling, soon the only students in government schools will be illegal aliens and those in government housing.

Great News!!!

Home school bump.

Public schools are child abuse.

My county has closed no less than 30 schools in the last 2 years and the teachers organizations are screaming bloody murder.

My church has a K-12 academy and there is a waiting list for enrollment.

What the hell do these public schools think was going to happen?

Parents don’t want their kids indoctrinated with sexual perversion, woke crap and the rest of it.

AI plus homeschooling should put plenty of crazy far left teachers out of business, especially in deep red states.

My first two are now in their 30's. My youngest is in his mid 20's. All Homeschooling products. One attorney, one architect, and one aerospace engineer. All successful, and in a healthy balance life.

Waiting on grandchildren, but just cats and a dog at this point.

The attorney spent her entire college time arguing the left on facts. The professors loved to hate her, but quietly liked and respected her views because she always brought the receipts, before bringing receipts was a term.

All can change a tire off a rim. All can wire a house. All can fit copper pipe. All can run a skidsteer, front end loader, and do tractor field work.

All wouldn't return home in hay making seasons.

This is good news. More is needed, however. When homeschooling becomes the majority option, we win.

The Republican Party should be jumping on this bandwagon. Find ways to promote homeschooling and/or provide School Choice so that parents can better afford private or parochial schools. We ought to do whatever we can to kill government schools.

“Parents don’t want their kids indoctrinated with sexual perversion, woke crap and the rest of it.”

They also don’t want their children to be illiterate and innumerate.

Good for the parents who are willing to be responsible for their kids! There are so many fantastic programs out there for home schoolers for curricululim, and theymoney spent on supplying 5 sets of school supplies, clothing, lunches, sports fees and costs etc,is available for actual education a thome. And, there are a million ways to educate kids, creativity matters!! There are more positives than there are negatives, the biggest being the relationship that developes with your kids, and lack of peer pressure on them..aside from the quality of their education.

The biggest problem I see across the board is doubts on thr part of the parents. Parents have doubts about providing that education. And, they don’t realize the fun and freedom involved. They need educating.

My cousin could barely read, and wasn’t well educated in any area. Yet, she taught her daughter at home until time for college. And, she provided social activities. By college, “T” was quite the ballarina.

If “G” could do it, truthfully, anybody with a desire for a good future for their children,can.

Go, study, see what’s available.

Most of the research I have read indicates home schooling produces better result.

Lots of ways to interpret the data.

I did a lot of work making hay before I left for college...

It is hard work. The more it is done without modern equipment, the harder it is.

I went through the public school system in my county back when it was designed to prep a student for AT LEAST junior college.......of course that was over 45 years ago.......like many other things in this world, public education has done nothing but rot for decades.

Thank you for referencing that article CFW.

So are some taxpayer dollars designated for public schools now being used to help reelect elite Democrats?

[ActresponsiblyinVA]

The Teachers’ Union needs to look at their bad success rate and focus more on education not salary and benefits.

[daler]

My “kids” (3 of em) are now in their forties and somehow survived public school.

I would’ve loved to have homeschooled them, but honestly don’t know how we could’ve financially swung it.

It took two incomes to pay our modest mortgage and the other costs of living, and sometimes that wasn’t enough.

People are finally listening to me. It’s about time. I was just about to give up but this has renewed my energy.

It definitely does with my grandchildren. The oldest has been reading on a college-aged level (or what used to be considered a college aged level) since he was 12. The second eldest has been able to rattle off the main elements of the periodic table since he was 7. The older 4 can tell you the basics of our nation’s Constitution and the names of our founding fathers. All read extremely well and can debate their point on an issue in a convincing manner.
