Yes or no to homeschooling
In recent years, an increasing number of parents around the world have
chosen to take their children out of the school system and educate
them at home. The question is whether this is good for everyone.
On the one hand, home schooling means that parents are able to cater
their childrens individual needs. For instance, parents can encourage
their children to explore their own interests. In addition, parents can
include important subjects that are often neglected in normal schools,
such as art or music. Moreover, parents can project their children from
bullying and teasing.
On the other hand, children who are home schooled often have fewer
opportunities to participate in team sports and in other extra-curricular
activities. Furthermore, since home-schooled children are exposed to
fewer kids, they many not learn their social skills that are necessary if
they want to live peaceably with others.
Despite the numerous benefits of home schooling, I believe most
children should go to school. The lack of opportunities for social
interaction may prove to be problematic in later life.
