Yea the people in this thread who think homeschooling should be banned have no idea what they’re talking about. If I’d gone to public school as a kid I would’ve gotten bullied for being neurodivergent and being an atheist in a very mormon place; I would’ve gotten fed conservative mormon propaganda; and would’ve either had teachers that wouldn’t know how to teach me, been in special ed when i didn’t really need it, or tbh probably both.
I do wish I’d gotten more opportunities to socialize as a kid, but at most points in my childhood school would’ve been hell, so Idk if that would’ve been better for me in the long run. I wound up going to public school part time for high school, which imo should be an option for everyone. I got to take some electives that would’ve been hard/impossible for my mom to teach me without having to sit through all the unnecessary shit you have to do in school. Banning homeschooling would be stupid, there’s other ways for kids to learn hot to socialize and a lot of shit the school just does a shit job of teaching from what I’ve seen and heard
Buddy no one is making fun of atheists 😂 i was very vocal about my atheism when the topic arose. The sad reality is that the vast majority of homeschooled kids are homeschooled because the school system is far too secular for the extremely religious. They wanna pump that religion in while they are young and make sure no one is there to second guess the bs they feed their own kids. Every kid I know that was homeschooled was so because their parents were extremely religious. There’s no shame in being a atheist and it’s kinda hard to make fun of someone for not believing in something lol even if they try to it’s not like anything they could say could land on you.
