If a person has studied K-12 material and wishes to teach what has been learned to another person there should be no obstacles. As a high-school senior, age 17 and 18, I was given a task of being a teacher's assistant in a kindergarten classroom. The certified teacher spent her hours in the coffee room while I worked with the children.
Later as a graduate at age 18: I was asked to help teach children how to swim -- not knowing how to swim nor having any confidence in the water --- do you think they learned anything? They did. Each student in 4 classes for 1/2 hr each day learned entirely from *a non-swimmer*. By the end of the week they were all floating successfully, dog-paddling about in the water, and using beginning strokes to get to the rope and back.
If a non-swimmer such as I can teach children how to swim it must be less of a stretch of the imagination to realize that a graduate of K-12 material can successfully teach the learned material to anyone. Know it: Share

>>>>We may think that it is easy to educate a kindergartner, after all what do they do but learn their ABC's and 123's right? Wrong. That was okay 20 years ago. Today, these five and six year olds are utilizing the computer, adding fractional numbers and writing essays! <<<< (this came from an older resolved question)

Show me the proof please!!!! How many children of this age are mature enough to handle this? I'd like to see verifiable statistics if you have them.

The adverts are all over the newspapers and magazines and seem to have good testimonials, but the software comes at a hefty price (expensive for a student anyway).

If anyone out there has used a Rosetta Stone CD-ROM, can they tell me if it was worth it?

1. Do you kids ask you why are they not in school?
2. I hv a very practical spouse who sees the only advantage he sees abt hsch is not having to pay fees. How do I make him see about other advantages? How do you garner genuine support from your spouse?
3. How do you fill up the feeling of missing out?
4. How do you maintain your sanity? How do you get your "ME" time as an individual who has their own interest & goals?
5. How do you rebut words & reaction from well-meaning but uninformed family & frens? How do you prepare your kids for such reaction?
6. How is your schedule like? I read that some hsch families are guided not by daily schedules but more of weekly, monthly or even yearly. Sometimes you may slacken, how do you keep yourself disciplined?
7. How do you counter offer subjects that you are not familiar?
9. What are your concerns as homeschool parents?
It's ok if you choose not to answer due to personal reasons, but pls serious answers from homeschool parents only

I don't want to read theories or opinions about why homeschooled kids are supposedly lacking in social skills, and I don't want to read about people guessing which skills they are supposedly lacking. I want to hear specific examples people have experienced from homeschoolers they have met, ideally things that could be attributable to homeschooling itself and that aren't seen in public school kids ever.

We have decided that our children mean more to us than a second income.They are our children,and with the world as it is today,they need VALUES. Not the public school molding of a Corprate yes person. Not to virtually be raised by someone other than their parent's. The social argument is in my opinion only a public school parents way to justify themselves.

My former daycare provider, also a good friend homeschools her kids. Even though she didn't finish high school, she is their teacher. Recently she informed us that her son will be in the 5th grade this year, even though he is over 2 yrs younger than my son, who is entering 5th grade. I've done comparisons between the development of the two boys, mine is much further advanced than hers, an example of this is my son had to read the other boy's birthday cards to him this past spring, the other boy didn't know what the $10.00 check his grandmother gave him was. Does that sound like advanced intelligence, enough to skip 2 grades?

Is it critical that a student learn the K-12 basics from a teacher that holds a college degree? Or can a student in fact learn just as much studying at home with Mom or Dad at the helm? Or better yet.. is it possible that a student can successfully self-teach and excel? Intelligence is one thing but willingness to work is another. Is *smart* dependent on having a certified teacher? I knew plenty of intelligent children in public school that were also so disruptive that they ruined the learning environment for the entire classroom.

Many homeschoolers are discovering that self-teaching is a very practical method of learning. My daughter taught herself math from age 4 through age 19. She independently completed algebra 2 and advanced math and had also begun calculus when she started college. Her first college math course was a breeze and she often found herself correcting the instructor.. go figure.

And how many graduates of public-school consider yourselves to be socially retarded? ....and.... why?

Seriously, this is a worthwhile poll.

I'll be the first to answer: I'm a public-school retard. My grades were great -- in the 3.65 range. But, due to overwhelming social pressures I did not pursue the courses that would have given me an edge as a graduate. Students made fun of my "smart" abilities and therefore I did a good job of hiding them.
