I have a child myself and often wonder what the motivation for home schooling is. Why is having your child exposed to different ways of thinking such a bad thing? Couldn't you use some of the things you don't like as part of what your kids are learning as a teaching tool?

For example, if you don't believe in evolution, why not come at it from the angle of, some people might believe in this but it's not something we choose to believe?

Also, how do you have your child learn proper social skills when he or she only interacts with his or her brothers and sisters as peers?

I am not here to bash home schooling just looking for an understanding of the motivation behind doing so. I am looking forward to reading your answers.

I have seen on tv. where parents have said they had so many problems with the school that they took their child out and put him in another... I am and have been disgusted with the school my kids are in, but i feel powerless to do anything. We are not in any position to move. How did these people do it? I thought you had to go to the school that was in your district.. I also can not afford a private school...

I'm having a panic though as the suggestion I wanted to make may perhaps be resolved by the Cpnstitutional Treaty. I wanted to suggest the abolition of the direct effect doctrine in favour of the right to an effective remedy. Does anyone know if by investigating the contitutional treaty in relation to the public/private divide that would in itself be an original idea.

I'm asking here as I cannot get in touch with my supervisor!!!!

Hello, I'm planning on going to grad school in the fall. As a grad student, I'm automatically considered "independent" by the federal government. However, New York State uses a different standard and since I still lived at home in '06 and still do, they require information on my parents, including their social security numbers. I don't even want to bother at this point, since if they factor in my father's income, I'm not going to get anything, and I don't want to mislead them either. What should I do?
