Is home schooling popular in your country or area??

I dont homeschool. Not many in my area choose to do it, we have some fantastic schools in our area with really good circulums. My personal view on homeschooling is I have a general degree, i have a diploma, meaning i finished high school, I didnt go to school to educate others. I didnt learn how to do it, or what to teach. I dont think anyone who has a general degree like this should be educating their children BECAUSE times change, By the time my son gets to highschool it will have been around 20 years sence i got out of it! Education changes so fast, new texts are being written all the time, in those 20 years SO many advancements will have been made, Ill have NO idea on any of them, How can i teach my son if im not up to parr? Not to mention i bearly passed math classes, i forced myself to take extra to try and learn it better, and i never did. How can i teach my son about math if i can only do basics? Dosent he have a right to know more? I think my child has a right to get the best possible education, my husband and I have even considered moving to put our kids in a school district that has a better ciriculum, so that he gets a better education. Elementry homeschooling is one thing. But even then children need social interaction, and a good part of the learning they do in school is social interaction, social skills. Hes not going to learn those skills if he isnt around other people daily. He might learn some of them, but not all. My personal oppinion is not to home school my child.

The condition where life have been establishing with father having enough sallary so that mother doesn't work or work freelance can teach his own child. Many of my friends do home schooling. At first I hesitated with this system because can keep away child from socialization and their friends. Simply at this system also there is even obliging child to meet other home schooling parcipant. So nothing that needs to worry. Unhapilly I can't do it for now because the price of good curriculum to home schooling still expensive for my pocket...

I think home schooling is fine aslongas there is astrict curriculum followed, and the children are only home schooled until age 12 or 13 when they should be in high school. i've seen some home schooled kids that had only 1 text book, the bible, and this isn't fair to the kids, how do their parents expect these kids to get into college or get a job if they don't know anything. I know one poor kid who's 18 and works at walmart because that's the only place that would hire him without a basic education. He hates hisjob, and is intelligent and funny, but his parents used only a bible for a text book and now hehas to go to school at night to be able to do anything. He can barely do basic math

I wont accept it... In our country noway for home schooling..... Chilgrens have thier own freedom..:)

I'm actually not sure what our area is like for home schooling. I know one of my friends homeschooled her son and she has no regrets about it, but I'm not sure if it's something I could do myself. The schools in our area have very good curicullums, and as such I don't think many people would choose to homeschool their kids as opposed to having them in full time school.

Yes i think its becoming more popular here in my country specially in the church that i go to- almost all the pastors or the speakers children at being home schooled- i really don't know how it works, but im really curious about it since im going to be a mom soon, and it would really be nice if my child will still have quality education for a fraction of the cost, plus with all the dangers lurking around, at least my child is safe at home with me.
