Thousands of families have blazed the trail before you and have educated their children to successfully continue into college and their careers. Here are some things to consider:
Homeschooling is one-on-one tutoring.
Homeschooling families tend to be people who think outside the box. Therefore, their children tend to think outside the box too. I think we can all agree that in today's society, there is a lack of people who think independently. Homeschooling encourages critical thinking and making informed decisions instead of simply following the status quo.
Is Homeschooling Right for Your Family?
There are many reasons that parents choose to homeschool their children these days. With the continually rising costs of even public schools, a lot of families simply cannot afford to pay for things like uniforms and a vast number of supplies.
There are also the ever-increasing incidents of bullying in schools, and if your child is in the least bit different, he or she can be targeted. Sadly, it seems that teachers, school counselors, and even principals can do nothing about this - or so they claim.
The level of education in many schools is another reason for homeschooling. Many teachers have merely glorified babysitters in some schools because they have classrooms filled with students that have no interest in learning. The list goes on and on.
Whatever your personal reasons are for thinking that homeschooling will be best for your children, there are still some things to take into consideration before making that final decision.
