Homeschooling/Home Education for children

Re: Homeschooling/Home Education for children

for those that said children need to socialize.....

I have met many parents who chose to home school their children and have set aside some time for them to socialize as well (ie playdates, scouting, etc). At our masjid they have a homeschooling program set up where a few mothers teach each others kids in a small group of maybe 5-6 kids....another example of the kids socializing and interacting with other kids.

I think home schooling is great for those mothers/fathers who are qualified to do so and have children that are willing to sit still for them. Also it takes a lot of patience and self discipline on the part of the mother/father and child. So it really depends on each individual person/child....not everyone can do it even if they want to.
