Re: Home schooling…pros and cons?
I don’t find you to be a non-conformist though. You might see yourself as one…you’re still educating your kids or are you not?
I haven’t seen any data to support what you’re saying so far in this thread. Asking people to read a certain piece of literature based on again - someone’s opinion - is not data. There are no hard and cold facts…just opinions.
Again…the public schooled kids are seen as negative while your own are seen as not. Public schooled moms are selfish. And you are not because you choose to not send the kids to school? I can say its just to save money but that would be wrong. I can also say its laziness…kaun subha subha uth ke tayyar karay teen teen bachon ko. Ghar pe rehne do. Pal jayengay kisi tarha. Can this not be said about you? Why the double standard and negativity against another kind of school system? You can prefer what you prefer all you want but doosron mein keeray kyun nikal rahe hein aap? How is this teaching Islam and manners? This leads me to believe that homeschooling is not a good choice for kids…for the parents sure…but not for the child.
You find public school kids traumatized and all wrong in every way. I haven’t seen a well adjusted home schooled child. There is lack of confidence, severe lack of manners and social awkwardness. Muslims families who like you believe that teaching them how to pray five times is all they are obligated to do. But that’s my opinion based on what I’ve seen.
Psyah bhai, I don’t find you to be a non-conformist because these ideas are not radical at all. Radical in my mind would be something ground breaking or amazing and I am not one to follow norms at all. What you’re saying just doesn’t make sense. Not being able to send kids to public schools is different from choosing to home school.
Seriously?
As I said earlier Sr. Reha… That I have been saying all along home schooling is not for everyone … So I was giving the true picture … It appears your view above does not accept home schooling as a feasible choice … But my view has nothing against people who choose to conform … But you are right I too conform … I just don’t conform to certain models for education.
