Homeschooling

Well thank you for mostly counter attacking my statements. I just want to say that when an a debate NO ONE should be so bias, list your reasons and not be ignorant. I did say "Each environment holds specific and helpful opportunities for children to learn, but as a parent, only you can determine which environment is helpful and suitable for your child", because I am not being so bias on this debate ok? One major example of you being bias is the link you posted which is the: http://www.homeschool-guide.com... This link I could tell that the article was going to be very bias, this article was written by homeschool guide for homeschooling. Jvava (Pro) I see that you are 41 years old on your profile, please don't take this the wrong way and I do not mean this in a mean way but maybe you do not understand when I say that technology can be such a distraction to younger students ages 6-24. Some distractions can be the Google, the Facebook, the Twitter, etc. I do not need facts to prove how much technology has taken a toll on everyone on earth, it's kind of common sense. I found this article and it states pros and cons of homeschooling here's the link: http://sacramento.cbslocal.com... Arguably, an asset of attending regular school is the opportunity it affords kids to be exposed to a wide variety of subjects, not just those currently of interest, as well as a diverse group of people. While not all schools are created equal, the ability they give children to socialize with others is a big plus. Recognizing the need for socialization, parents who homeschool typically attempt to create a social network for their children by organizing field trips and by joining homeschooling networks or groups. However, rarely do they encompass disparate types of people. Within urban areas, these groups may be ethnically diverse, yet similar socio-economically. In rural regions, the groups may be religion-focused or comprised of people sharing other common ideologies. Either way, it is a rare homeschooling parent who will include children who do not get along easily with their own. This can limit their child"s social experiences and make it harder for them to learn things like compromise or conflict resolution. Adults who were homeschooled often reference extreme social awkwardness as an obstacle they experienced upon entering college or the workforce. Others, whose teaching was steeped in religious ideology, note astonishment and even anger towards their parents because they were shielded from scientific learning and had no knowledge of subjects like evolution, the big bang theory or even the existence of dinosaurs. Some adults, however, upon looking back at their homeschooling days, express gratitude to their parents for letting them focus on career-boosting skills and teaching them the benefit of learning in the world as well as in the classroom. I want to wrap up my arguments. For the present time a student is being homeschooled it may be a great benefit and the parent and student may feel it was a great decision to enroll into homeschooling but life is not just about present, it's also about the future and how we're going to make it better. If you read my last paragraph it shows why and how a student can slightly lose their knowledge from homeschooling and their social lives will be at a low.
