Said that teacher is the second parents because they teach us,Mom/Dad also can teach us,We were more comfortable if our parents are the one whose teaching us,But why we have to go to school to study? Who do you feel to teach you your Parents or teachers?

I got a good education at home from my parents, as well as at school from my teachers. I think for some kids school works better than others, and some parents don't have the confidence of resources to teach their children themselves.

I think if you have the conditions to learn at home,you could do so,but a student grow up in a group is different from that in home.We should teach a child how to get well with others and learn to care for others which can't finish at home.In addition,parents would make a warm atmosphere for their children,so children can't feel the coolness in this society.So I think it's better to study in a school. By the way, my English is poor,I hope you can understand me.

I can say that we as parents in most states do have the option of teaching our children at home, which I do. I have been home Educating my daughter with the school districts approval for the last three years and would at this point not change a thing unless my daughters preference were to return to the public school system. I feel that most parents are more than qualified to teach there children at home under there own supervision and at there own pace.
