6/26: Homeschooling and animal skinning (thanks Slithy_Tove)

Very Cool!

Every time I meet a home schooled kid, I come away impressed. I think the socialization aspect has been pretty well debunked. If the parent works hard to find people and resources for the child to take advantage of they will have a broader group of friends than most kids locked in school buildings. It seems like such a natural way to learn, if the parents are up to the challenge. One thing our industrial style education system may be doing is severing childrens ties to older generations, limiting the ideas they are exposed to. I'm sure there are some horror stories out there involving parents who couldn't do the job but all in all I'm for it.
