So, while I enjoy hanging around the homeschooled kids in my family, now on the second generation of homeschooling, I find the humor in their creativity compared to the kids in public school and their use of more Saxon "sentence enhancers".

On the other hand, here's public schooling for the last century or so. "The evil is most serious with young children because of their youth. Many of them, while making good progress in the three R's, outgrow their tendency to ask questions and to raise objections, in other words lose their mental boldness or originality, by the time they have attended school four years. But all along, from the kindergarten to the college, there is almost a likelihood that the self will be undermined while acquiring knowledge, and that, in consequence, one will become permanently weakened while supposedly being educated. In this respect it is dangerous to attend a school of any grade." --McMurry, Frank M. ( Morton). How to Study and Teaching How to Study (1909) The key is to overcome the idea a child must be broken to the classroom and inculcated with "school helplessness"

My mom quit teaching in the 90's to homeschool us. When my brother went to college one of his teachers said " I can tell you're homeschooled, because you can actually socialize with adults." 😆. My older sister only homeschooled a year, but she was determined to not put her kids through public school, they're all homeschooled. I tried putting my oldest in public school, it was a failure. We pulled him out a month or so into first grade. My brother and SIL just had their first and have already decided to homeschool all the way.

Honestly, the idea that homeschooling is to *avoid* learning particular topics rather than to *encourage* additional learning is the worst part; I know lots of parents homeschool their kids to avoid having them learn stuff but it's honestly sad. And I would never work at the land of homophobic chicken; my two master's degrees since finishing my 12 years of homeschooling made sure of that. That being said, this is still quite accurate; I can quote The Princess Bride from start to finish!

From my experience as a homeschooler and working at numerous homeschool conferences, most parents who homeschool their children do it because they have their child’s best in mind. In addition, most states have certain requirements for homeschoolers, so you can’t just avoid Math, Science, English, or whatever else just because you want to 🤷🏻♀️ I just compiled the major homeschool stereotypes I know about for this video. I’m not saying they’re exactly true. Either way, they certainly aren’t meant to be blanket statements. There are many types of homeschoolers, and I’m not trying to make a judgment on any of them. Everyone is entitled to their opinion.

Snow days aren't even a thing in public school anymore. Now they zoom instead of getting the day off, and teachers still have to go into school to do the zoom. Longer days, more hours, less vacation time and more money is NOT going to make public school better. Homeschooling is the way to go. Until people realize homeschoolers know more, are better focused, are extremely stable individuals, and more people homeschool so there's less money going towards public school, there won't be any changes to the public education system.
