If we can educate our kids at home why do we need to send them at school?

If socialization is a problem in homeschooling, there are many solutions to that ;-)

I think schools are there to teach our child what we cannot teach, we will always have atleast 1 weakness when it comes to academics. A tutor could do the job if that is the case but there are just lots of limitations. When it comes to socialization, ok lets not send them to school, lets just find other group of parents looking for other parents whose wanting their kids to have a social group so that they could do activities where they will learn to cooperate and help others, wait a minute, isn't that called a school?.

Going to school is not all about learning subjects, you also build character out of your kids. There they learn failure and how to cope with it. Thats one thing you cant teach at home no matter how good the tutor are.

Unfortunately, many parents do not have the opportunity to educate and educate children at home because of the work, but for this it is possible to invite the teacher to the house. I consider this training to be more effective than group work in school.

Because our kids also need a social needs, companionship, and an education that a mother and father cannot give. A good and higher education is a profession that can get in school.

At home, we can educate our kids thru moral values a good conduct that they need to have in mind, a good discipe that parents can give.

A good parents can give their kids a basic education like good attitude towards her friends and others.

Yes we can educate our children in our home but we cannot teach all the things that they need to learn. In our home, we can teach them the right attitude, respect, discipline and being responsible. But those academic information like mathematics, english etc. will be teach in school.

Not possible most people here only get 4 years of school.
How should they be able to teach their children something? Lol

The main #1 reason is simply resources bud, you probably need to be a millionaire or have assets equivalent to bring up kids properly. Bringing up kids properly does mean either home schooling or sending them to a very forward thinking school which costs money.  Most parents have to work so dont have time to educate kids at home.

If you are living paycheck to paycheck and have kids in mainstream school there is a bigger chance of a whole ton of problems, too much to list.  It can be done this way i guess but why have kids if you cant provide your genetics the best chance in life. Me and the mrs are reluctant to have kids at this point in our lives and by the time we feel ready for it it may be too late tbh.

First an foremost, it's not everything that you can teach the child at home, there isn't enough resources or the parent doesn't have the necessary training to teach the child and secondly, its good for the kid to go to school so that he can bond with other kids as well so he will not be socially awkward in the near future

we are not that brilliant to keep your kids at home ... you can see at school different subject differrent teacher because theres no person that is good at all thing .. that why our kids need to grow and be educated in different form ... thhey need to learn and have different friend meet new people that will let thhem be good on different things ...

Are you sure you can fully cover a data about a particular subject and explain it to them thoroughly? Remember that we humans are busy organisms, always finding a way to do something and earn for a living. If you have kids and that your idea is to educate them by means of teaching them everything all by yourself then i think your mistaken. You cant dedicate most of your time just by teaching.. you need to earn for a living and even if you decide to manage your time.. it still does not work because kids require half of their time in learning.

I think because there are plenty of things that you could miss to teach them,
You could only focus on the things that you want your child to learn and at school they are teaching them everything that they have to learn.

We can not teach all children and for this purpose there are teachers who can be invited to the house for training. Individual training is much more effective, but it is not everywhere common.

Because not every parent is knowledgeable and know everything. If they're just gonna rely on materials like in standard homeschooling, then they are just regurgitating that knowledge from experts.

And seriously, how many parents can teach chemistry, calculus, biology etc and claim to have deeply studied all those subjects? Homeschooling are for certain situations where it is not possible to go to school.

Nope. There is no real solution for this. The kids need to spend at least 6-7 hours everyday away from their parents. This is very much necessary in order to get a balanced and unbiased view about the outsiders. I have seen a lot of people who were home-schooled, and I have to say that the vast majority of them suffer from problems such as introvert behavior and inability to interact with the others. 

Socialization is an important thing that children learn directly. Then what other solution do you mean? Go to school also to build children's character, socialize with others directly and make friends. Not all lucky children can get enough education at home. The busyness of parents is always a constraint to divide the time. Therefore schools are indispensable for the development of children.

if the parents have all skills which children need, we don't need send them to the school.
unfortunately we don't have it.
sending them to the school is one way to teach them how to socialized witah a society.
and school is the process of getting legal certificate.
more ever university, its really needed nowadays.
great moment and experience are in university for me.
there we can share our free opinion, join many organizations.
express what we want.

If we can educate our kids a home, why we send them at school? Obviously, they are different institutions. At home, the parents established the foundation of our knowledge of a child. At home, they instill the simple things and enrich our prior knowledge. While at school, they teach more comprehensive and complexities in life that a person needs in entering the professional world. Also to build a social relationship. No one is an island so we better let our child/children to enjoy life with their friends in school. Honestly, though school give them a hard time as what parents do to us when a child commit a mistake, it is for our future and betterment.

If you have time for this! Why not? Education at home will be more profitable!

home is the foundation of our kids .. at home they first learn their words ..
home and people at home will be the first step of who will be and what he will be .. his/her attitude will begin to develop at young stage ...
we will teach them how to count and memorize the alphabets .. they started to sing with nursery rhymes with us at home ..
but those are basic fundamental of a successful human being .. we still need to send them to school to be with others and meet other people this will boost their confidence .. as you can see at school in every subject there is a particular proctor who will guide and teach them , develop their knowledge and explore who will their be sooner or later .. teachers will let them see the brilliant world of every subject .. to be mature on a certain thing that will let them dream to become someone and be something .. education is the best fundamental of life for being a well being human .. to become a doctor or maybe the next president of a country!

I love the idea of school and I can't imagine how my life could have been if I had not gone to it. I have been in the same school since I was 5 and now I'm a senior at age of 18! so I have a big conetion with my study house. I don't know... I don't think that all the kids should be home educated because they would miss all the experiences, like friends and amazing teachers who are there to teach so much more than the subject. Yes, I know that school can suck somedays, we all have been there but still I love so much what school can offer you and It would be nice that people could apreciate more this.

i believe that people learn first at home. Because there are some knowledge that school and teacher can provide it. We all now that the school are the one who provide the knowledge that we need to learn.

The children needs a proper education not just the experiences of the parents.

That's good if you can afford it. Not all the subjects that you learn in school can be taught at home. Each subject is being explained and taught carefully by professionals.

It's not enough to learn just the basics like cooking or whatever that everyone can do, we are in modern time now, we  need to learn things to cope up and to survive. Life isn't like the samurai days where the children are trained by their parents at home.

2 reasons:
1- you should have time to do it yourself
2- you should be knowledgeable in every subject you need to teach them ....
Good luck with that

I would teach my children at home so that they do this when they are comfortable and do not study what they really do not like and do not come in handy in the future. But due to the fact that I spend a great honor of the day at work, I can not teach a child :(

In the future, I can't fully teach my children calculus and advanced mathematics for example even I've finished an engineering course. Of course as a parent, your focus is not only on teaching them; there are other things too.

Well aside from learning different subjects at school, there are different activities for children to engage. There's this fun that a child wouldn't experience when he's home-schooled.

There are positive and negative points to be made on both sides of this discussion.  There are many reasons or constraints that will affect each family's decision in this regard. 

I do not believe that six years is long enough for a child to be 'protected' from open society without the constant supervision of his/her parents to interpret/explain the things they see and hear.  My estimate is about twice that, 12 years. 

Home schooling may be the answer for some families. Small private schools formed with others of the same beliefs as you, may be the answer for others.  There will be yet other families that cannot afford either of these options, which means they must take an active and interested role in their children's education by interacting with them (the children) every day about what has gone on that day and what they have learned, not only in the class-room, but on the playground as well.

Who in today's world has the time to sit at home for 6 hours a day teaching his child? Schools were made because there are always people more knowledgeable than you in a subject and there are certainly subjects you're not good at. Schools are supposed to consist of smart teachers, who like their subjects and know how to get children interested in them. Unfortunately this is not always the case, but there are schools that manage to do it.

You can learn in many different ways. There is a knowledge that you can only learn from home and there is a knowledge that you can only learn from school. Teamwork, unity, and experience are just a part of several knowledge that can only be learned from school.

Because not all the things are learn in our home. So we need to go to school

The lessons parents should teach their children at home are modesty, morality and discipline.
There is another reason why children should go to school.
First, children should socialize directly, and at school they can socialize and make new friends.
Second, because children have goals and to reach their goals they have to learn the formal school lessons. Example: being a doctor, a doctor is not a job that can be done by careless people. You also will not want to take your child or you go to an unqualified doctor if you or your child is sick?

Is it less clear?

School allows for a greater likelihood of correctly standardized knowledge. For example, if a parent thinks that 1+1=3 and they teach that to their child, who teaches it to their child, then we end up with 3 generations who are completely convinced of incorrect data. Since most schooling involves multiple teachers interacting with the students over the years, there is a nice safety net for cases when one teacher slipped through the cracks and has no idea what they are doing. This safety net doesn't exist in home-schooling. The issue is that this is the type of situation that a parent would be completely unaware of, because they would be 100% convinced that 1+1=3 and never consider that they are teaching incorrect things to their child.

Parents are good teachers, but not all parents are effective teachers. There are things that is best learned at home and school. School can prepare kids for the future, and school can be a good learning grounds for kids. Kids need to enjoy and get to know a lot of people while learning, so that it will not be hard for them to socialize when they grow up.

It is not only all about knowledge that children may learn from school. Being at school can teach your children a lot more than that. You have already mentioned about socials skills and you said that there are other way to learn it aside from that but the best way to do it is beibg with their schoolmates at school. Attitudes of your children can all be taught at school, examples are dedication and perseverance can be learned as they encounters daily obstacles in their school life.

Because if some parents like me for instance teach their children point 1 they will not be able to spell or speak properly and point 2 my child will be
telling everyone to FUCK OFF ..

And the fact they listen better in a class room than at home unless your a real harsh parent which i am not one ..
Like my child to love me not like the way i hated some teachers ..

Much better in a class full of bright children it brings the best out of them..
That's if they want to learn..

No i never i wanted to work on a building site and that's just what i did amongst a few other jobs in my life time..

But good schools with a good ethos is way better than getting taught at home..

Plus helps children mix better with more children around ..

I agree with you. Yes kids can learn different things and knowledge at home but sending them to school is the best and right thing to do. They can learn new things in school and they can improve their social activities because of their friends. There also some activities that schools can offer that they cannot do n home. Schools also mold their students to become a good role model to other people.

Parents spend most of their time at work and can not manage to fully educate their children. Although in our country, home schooling is practiced when teachers are invited to the house to have the child study at a time convenient for him.

Yes that is correct, we cannot teach all the things in out children, we just can teach them the right attitude, behavior and how to responsible in socializing with other people. Other than that, school will teach them.

If you think there are many solutions for sotialization at homeschooling, than you should give us examples. I don't think that teaching kids at home can replace schools.

we can hardly survive one day without the internet and you're talking about an entire life xD? can't even image that lol

The kid still needs a diploma to upgrade itself to the society. They could still get it when he gets accelerated to a graduating batch if he is already smart and easily get primary and secondary diploma. And also don't forget to aid him in college since there is a big difference in both secondary and primary. College is hard unlike those.

Its not just socialization, it's about building your strategy on how to pass your exam (except studying). How to whip your groupmates into shape when doing a project. The exact calculations of throwing a spitball. These cannot be learned in homeschool...

because in school many lessons that you can not teach.
socializing with friends and learning with friends it can only be done in school.
your child will do well without disturbing your work

Yes we can educate our children at home but we need to send them to a formal education.

Another important aspect is the diversity in views and tactics. If the kid is homeschooled, then he will get different opinions just from his father and mother. But if he goes to the school, then he may be able to get different opinions from dozens of teachers, in addition to a large number of co-students. This another advantage in formal education.

If home schooling will provide a degree or a diploma, this will be an awesome alternative. 2 hours of lectures in a very comfortable environment will be beneficial. Especially when the professor is focused on you, being able to modify the material so a person could learn it better. Socialization is easily supplamented.

Because you experience a lot of stuffs at school. Like socializing with different kind of personalities, make friends, enjoy activities with friends.  ;)

Well first of all, many parents are already doing home schooling. I don't see a rrason against that but i still think it would be better to have an institution to will primarily focus on teaching. You can't be around your kid most of the day if you're working.

    In my opinion, even though some parents can educate their kids at home they still need to send them at school because kids can learned better in school, there are some lesson that parents can not taught, they still have need to socialize with other children because it is part of their growing up and it can help to build their confidence and face our world. And children's needs a formal education.

No I do not agree with this that we can teach our kids at home. The reason is that no child is afraid of his or mother and he will never listen to them about the education. The other important thing is that you will have to arrange the teacher at home, but of which subject, because it will not be possible for one teacher to teach all the subjects. Then it will be very annoying situation for the child and the parents as well.

It should be borne in mind that the school has many unnecessary and uninteresting lessons for the child that will not be of use to him in the future. Simply the system requires that all this is forcibly studied instead of choosing interesting subjects and home teaching.

There are countries in which you can not educate kids at home :(

Yea, I know these days kids can learn sitting at their house but there are some things he won't learn sitting at home he can only learn these things in schools like kids learn to interact with others when they are in school and many other values. All round development of children take place in schools they cant be learned in home.

Here is the text of his story

Mr. Bhanu Pratap was born in a very poor family but poverty did not stopped him to pursue his dreams. From childhood itself he tried to excel in studies and got many academic laurels. He was awarded with "Brain of Bihar" merit certificate. He also received "RajyaPuraskar" for selfless service to nation from then Governor of Bihar, which is the highest award of any state. After his class 10th he started to give tuition to students to collect fund for his higher education as his parents were not capable to provide for his higher studies. With his efforts and hard work he was able to secure a seat in Rajasthan Engineering and he started to pursue his dream by studying B.Tech in Civil Engineering. But when he came in third year his finances were gone and he was forced to drop his studies as he could not submit fees and his college rejected to provide any financial sponsorship. He was totally broken down and as a youth he lost all hopes to study further. But even such type of gloomy situation could not break the zeal to attend knowledge from heart of Bhanu Pratap. He started working in pretty jobs to gather money for his studies. He sold  newspapers in local market and also worked in restaurants in day time as helper. His determination to study was far stronger than the obstacles in his life.


After few years he again joined Subharti University, Meerut to complete his B.Tech as the university agreed to give him admission in 3rd year directly on the basis of Credit Transfer System for universities and continue where he left after migration and all. He again studied and worked hard to get highest marks but again after one year it was difficult for him to finance his education, however he managed to pay his 3rd year fees. His exams are approaching near and he does not have money to pay his tuition fees so that he can fill his exam forms, this is last year for him to get his Bachelor's Technical Degree. Let us support him and encourage his determination. We all can ease this bright student's academic future.

This is his story, I strongly think he should be helped so that he can complete his Bachelors Degree, our small contribution will make his world beautiful.



Thank you,

Education is really important nowadays for human beings, especially for children. These days, while numerous students are enrolled in the school to be educated, others, prefer studying at home through parents at home. As a result, both situations have their positive and negative outcomes as will now be argued.Primarily, it is obvious that those who are educated in school have a complete discipline and training. Certain facilities, as well as library or gym could be found only in the institute, that makes it easier and facilitate the child's growth. What is more, teachers are specialized in their subjects with higher educational qualification, consequently they know how to better prepare the pupils for a career best.To illustrate, the majority of my friends argue that if they have a successful position in their company is due to school and educators.On the other hand, the main reason that lie behind on why both parents used to teach their kids at home, is owing to the fact that, they do not want that their kids become as others their peers or even the society. To be specific, even adults nowadays are treated badly by young people which have behaving and attitude problems toward them. Therefore, parents have a lack of trust toward educational environment and as a result they consider it more useful teaching at home. Unfortunately, this decision has some side effects, indeed, the children of course will have a good behaviour in the future yet they will never have the knowledge and ability as one who has attended the school.The child will not understand the true value of friendship and co-operation with other peers if he stays at home.If one doesn't learn the value of friendship he will find it hard later in his life.The absence of a degree weighs highly in the future, in fact such a student hardly find a job position in a firm as the latest analysis stated us.To conclude, as a overall judgement, It could be said that although if children, taught by the parents could have as main target a good personality and attitude, the most effective manner to being successful in their life, is that the kids should attend the school.

we cant teach our children at home specially if both parents are working. we can teach them the good habit attitude behavior but not the subject which teach in school. in school they also learn to interact to other people.

Because the system demands to have our children educated by its own institutions, so that brainwashing and manipulation may begin at a young age in order for our children to grow into proper sheep, taking in, accepting and believing everything they are told...
 ???

Unfortunately, this is exactly what happens. But if the parents from the very childhood will explain to the children that the school says a lot of untruth, then the child will not become a sheep.

 There's a lot of things that kids can learn from school that couldn't be achieved through homeschooling. If you're child will not be prepared for the outside world, he would have a hard time in the future if he's going to start working. Studying at school helps us to cope up and adjust to different types of people.

It's better to educate kids at school than at home. Children can learn a lot and they need some time to learn how to be independent. Imagine if your kid started homeschooling since he or she was a kid until college. How do you think will your kid handle the pressure if they would start dealing with the competitive professional life.

I think both has good effect to kids. Studying at school reduces stress and pressure from school. However, school can teach your kids to adjust from different kinds of people in our society, they would learn to socialize and blend in. There's a lot of things that kids can learn from school that can't be learned at home, and vice versa. Choose what is best for your kids.

Probably because humans act solely on impulse and don't plan ahead. If people learned about finances in their earlier lives, they wouldn't need full-time jobs by the time they have children and then they could easily homeschool their kids.
But good luck pouring any sense into people who can't even keep themselves from buying every single iPhone that comes out instead of investing some money so they can be financially free in the future.

I think the negative effects of going to a state regulated school FAR OUTWEIGHT the positive gains from it. THe bullying the superficial friends the popularity contests and the list goes on it is all bullshit that has brought a lot of headaches to my life as well as I can imagine millions of others. I am going to educate my kids myself and for them to have discipline and interatcion with other kids I will enroll them in extra activties like sports etc. where they can meet kids their own age. SCHOOL IS BULL****

I think it is amazing enough to believe that we are qualified enough at the moment to be able to educate people to become an adult future with the ability to be totally contextual in their time!

I think it is interesting to know that for insurance we are adults at 23 years of age. So the maturity is not already at 18 years. So pretending to educate a child to all knowledge, or to all the awakening to the world alone (or with his / her partner) is totally illusory.

School learns facts, science. It is up to us to teach them methodical doubt, to take nothing as cash and stumbling. Wake them up with critical thinking. But the learning of mathematics, biology, chemistry, philosophy, languages ​​... Let's stop.

Only people who want to create their own clone or their own projection of their broken ideals may consider this. Moreover, a child needs socialization to be an adult capable of opening up to others and communicating.

Forming friendship and relationships is one of the reason why it's necessary for Children to be educated at schools, sending the children to school also challenges them to better themselves at every turn, there will be no one to compete to when they are home schooled.

Education mean is not only lessons and school mean is not only education, school life is include frienship and share something and learning kinds of popepe ,its mean school life is so important for to be normal person.

I think that yes we can teach our children some lessons on academics in our home but there is also something in schools in the side of formal education that makes the learnings a bit easier and the teaching more fluid. Not to say that we are learned but that is why teachers exist and schools does too

We need to send them to school because you cannot teach them all what they have to learn, you only can teach them what you know. And when you send them to school, they learn how to compete with other students.

We really need to send our kids to school because they will learn the things that they will not able to learn in home. Ofcourse not all the lessons or things will be learn in our home. We also need to bring or send them to school.

You are absolutely right. It is the parents' responsibility to keep their children vigilant so that they won't be taken away with the flow becoming proper sheep...
Unfortunately, the system has taken this into to account hundreds of years before and has made sure that the parents will be so busy working like slaves 24/7 as well as has provided them with so many different options in regards to how they could spend their little extra time that's left, that they haven't got the energy, the will, the time nor the knowledge on how to actually achieve keeping their kids awake... cause they themselves have also been taken aback by the system...
It's a never ending circle unfortunately. It's like driving on a round about that has no exit...
 :-[

It is not about socializing the kids which is one of the matters but to kid learn how to live with other people and behave in right way. If the kid is at home he does not have oportunity to feel some thing or to try them. If you give the kid all freedom to choose the kid will choose what it likes and not what society wants from him to choose. That kind of freedom is in school.

we can indeed teach and provide education for children at home by ourselves, but there are some things that we may not be able to teach at home and can only be in the school environment where the school environment teaches children to socialize, befriend and practice science theory directly.
it is possible that by studying at home alone the child has a tendency to be bored and shut out from the wider environment, he will be a little difficult to socialize.

We need to send them at school because it is our responsibility and that is their right. Educating at home has a big difference in educating at school. As parents, we send our kids to school for them to learn not just in terms of academics but also in terms of socialization. What we teach at home is different from their school's lessons. At home, we discipline them and we mold them to be a better person while at school they learn how to cope up with things that they need to learn for them to get a god job and future someday.

Every school is different, and every country is different regarding their schools. In addition, people have different resources to spend on educating their children.

Many schools in America's big cities are little more that baby sitting stations. The kids would be far better off being taught at home.

8)

Children don't just learn from school, they also make friends that enables to them enhance their social skills. It also boost their self-esteem and exposes them to a new environment.

I think home schooling is permissible for children if health problems, then it is in full normal. But if a perfectly normal, healthy child, why should it be deprived of normal schooling.
You imagine how boring it is home-schooling the child will quickly get bored.

You got your point there but sending kids to school is the best after all because a parent does not have all the knowledge he needs, parents only discipline them and love but school showcase their talent and improve their skills more. Getting real friend will be a kid's bonus

I agree with you. Yes kids can learn different things and knowledge at home but sending them to school is the best and right thing to do. They can learn new things in school and they can improve their social activities because of their friends. There also some activities that schools can offer that they cannot do n home. Schools also mold their students to become a good role model to other people.

Because many parents can not know how to teach their Kids and knowledge of the parents not enough to teach their Kids.. we need send our kids to school because in the school many profesional teachers, the teachers usually know the great method how to teach our Kids. And our Kids can learn a lot more than they learn at home.

You got your point but there is a big difference about home schooling and attend in school. For example having friends that you can bond every week. Or having their first crush. And playing after school. And the best thing about this is your children will learn how to manage their time their time properly because in home schooling their time is on their hand.

That's why we need a larger world population. Kids with many brothers and sisters learn their social life while being home schooled.

8)

Children must learn at school to adapt to life and communicate with other people outside the home.
In the future it will help them find a good job.

we can indeed provide education for our children at home, but there are some things or lessons that we do not know or can teach ourselves at home.
school is the second scope for a child after the family, in addition to learning, the school is a place to gather and socialize for children, the school is also a place to play and interact, so there are things we can not give to children at home.

Yes, we can edecuate our kids at home.But the way we educate our kids is different from the teachers way .

How many brothers and sisters an individual will have? A maximum of 10? That number is not large enough. The kids need to interact with hundreds if not thousands of people, to develop their social skills. And please don't misunderstand me. I am saying this out of my own experience. Some of my friends were home-schooled, and I can notice their deficiencies whenever I talk to them.

We can educate our children at home but can not teach it the knowledge. Children should therefore be brought to school so that they are taught basic and advanced knowledge of all aspects of nature and society. The teacher will equip them with the knowledge to make jewelry come into life.

Either home school or public school will help kids learn a lot. BUt sending kids to school is a lot better. Why? Because in school (public or private) it is not just the mental state of a person that will be developed but also the social, physical, moral,  and spiritual aspect. Schools helps kids experience the real world, find friend, improve their character and skills. Face challenges and will find their real self that will make them find a nice job someday.

Yes home schooling is a good teaching grounds for others but you cannot compare that to the things the school can give to the students. First of all not all the parents are well educated on other subjects but at the schools, the Teachers or the Professors are all finished in their studies and has a degree on the subjects that they are teaching or their majors.

That is true. Kids go to school to learn how to socialize with other kids. This will teach them how to treat a person nicely and how to be caring towards others. It's fun learning when you are with friends. We must not restrict our kids to have friends.

Not all countries allow home schooling I believe. Unless they have some serious reasons. But in general, in some countries like Eastern Europe or middle Asian cointries, it doesn't seem like they have this choice, please, prove me wrong if you know differently

Not all schools will help the child to develop socially. On the contrary, because of visiting schools where classmates laugh at the child, he will become more closed to communication with other people. The child must choose with whom to communicate with him, and not to be forced into a school where children of different levels of development are located.

Sending you kids to school gives them a formal education. Educating them at home by yourself won't give them diploma that they need. Schools hire educator that has passed the standards of a given schools, schools don't hire just anyone they see, they have to see if the one who is applying to be their educator has a lot to contribute to their specific school. For example in college, in an engineering school they don't hire police school graduates, because it is an engineering school, and the other way around. Engineers aren't need in a police academy.

humans need high sensitivity and reasoning, there is a solution but not a vast world and so this child wants to love adventure in childhood

For me, I think thats why we sent our childrens from school is because, teachers in every stages know more than we know. Our childrens need to have knowledge in every subjects because all of that can use him/her in life in the future. There's so many thing that we don't definitely know that only teacher's and professor can explain not because of the books they have but also the knowledge they gain in the long term of teaching.

I'm reading a lot about academics and social skills...but I feel like school teaches a LOT about dealing with conflict. Kids are mean, but they learn boundaries and how to deal with boundary-crossers.

To educate our kid at home is not good as educate them in School. Because first of all now a days parents have not enough time to provide them all material and time for example at School our kids have specific time which can be provided by teachers and second thing teachers are professional. In my opinion School is better for education as compared to educate them at home.

it is because they need other people to interact with. if they just learn anything with us in home, they will never know what happen outside the house and it will make them hard have relation with other people

Everything depends on the person. Some people find it more convenient to study at home and in the future they will not have problems communicating with other people.

School is not just a place for learning books. But school is place where you can also learn how to leave in your society and how you will deal when you are fail or pass. From school kids create their relations with other kids and in future this relation was also a history for that person

Sending your kids to school is not a fashion that all people are doing this but it’s the basic need because no one can complete all the needs of school kids in their home. In school there is not just a teaching to kids but there is every types of kids through which your kids interface and get knowledge about them. Also a person get their friends from school.

To send kids to the school is not a fashion  but if you want your kids to be good and honorable person then you should send him to school because in school there is not only academic teaching but in school kids start learning how to leave in society and how to make friends and how to manage if you fail or pass.

we can educate our child at home . but it is not possible to  teach all the things that they need to learn. In our home, we can teach them basic etiquette , their responsibility and some basic knowledge .But, in school they learn new things , different subjects , make new friends  and much more which we cannot provide them at home .  :)

They can make friends at clubs or other gatherings that are directly relevant to their interests. School actually achieves the opposite of "making friends" for a very large number of people, so socializing is not an aspect that is best learned in school.

School also does a very good job at getting people to think in binary boxes and to make false assumptions about their own interests and abilities. Children are very curious and want to know, learn, do and try everything. Until they start going to school. At that point they start hating everything that is related to effort.

Kids should only go to school if their parents literally don't have the time they need to spend with their own children.

Many unfortunately do not have time to deal with children, but there is an opportunity to invite teachers to help the child develop fully. I know children at home school and they are 14 years old can write their own book or make a good idea for business.

Because there are technicalities and certain learning that we as parents or even people who grow old have forgotten and might have not been able to teach it to our kids. Yes we can educate them about manners and good conduct and we might be even able to teach them a thing or two about real lessons on math and science and grammar. Yet there is no denying that a full pledged education wherein our childrten can learn in an academe is priceless.

Learning in a school is very different from learning at home. At school, you not only get education but many other things like how to talk to others with manners, cooperation, teamwork and you even get to learn so many things from others which you don't get at home.

Yeah, that's what happens when you allow children to develop with their own interests in mind. They will naturally challenge themselves if it's something that they care about.

I just hope that people will start realizing that it's best to first achieve full financial security and then have children. That way they can decide whether or not they want to work part-time or not at all if they need extra time for their children. The way people procreate right now is fit for monkeys and early stages of humanity, but we should be past that mindless breeding by now.

some parents are too lazy, some are too traditional. And kids do need to socialize

The socializing argument simply doesn't hold. There are far better ways to socialize than school. And that's not even including the internet whatsoever.

I think that sending our kids to school does not only mean that they learn something that we cannot teach but also they learn how to interact with other kids. They can improve their socialization skills by playing and talking to them. They can develop what are their talents by connecting their self with others. I also think that sending them to school can teach them what we cannot teach or give them answers we cannot answer.

They are actually hindered from developing their talents, because kids tend to bully anything that doesn't fit their ideas of "normal".

For me, Schools are there to teach kids what we cannot teach. For sure every individual have a weakness in academics. And kids that are homeschooling are hard to catch up in the outside world that really different.

That's not true. Kids who have been homeschooled generally outperform traditionally schooled individuals by tremendous margins. Universities all across the world are increasingly accepting homeschooled people over schooled students due to their extraordinary independancy and problem solving skills.
The founders of Google were homeschooled as well by the way, and there's countless of other prominent examples.

Furthermore, with internet courses schools are completely irrelevant nowadays. They're just a relic of the past and will eventually disappear if they don't perform some very drastic changes to their policies.

I think its important kids get out, kindergarden/school to just grasp a wider spectrum instead of a probably quite narrowed view of only a few persons. you never can be as old as them, which is a big limitation. Dont limit your child beacause you think its a good idea :P

Highperformers/Bosses tend also to be on average more sociopathic, makes kinda sense I think.

I do not agree with your claims which you have mentioned above. Socialization is one of the main problems in homeschooling. Besides this, Kids must be learnt how to behave in social areas, must learn to share etc.

I think the answer here is pretty obvious. We have licensed and very well practiced teachers more capable of educating our children than us. These teachers have molded their art for so long that it's actuallt easy for them to teach things compared to us whom I know will have a difficult time teaching other subjects. Let the teachers do their job.

The roles of both teacher and parent are somewhat similar but one is always greater than the other in certain aspects. Teachers can teach the general subjects better than the parents. These subjects include math, science, language and literature. Teachers have a better affinity and mastery over these subjects, however, they can teach these subjects better specifically to children who has no clue of what the subject is. The parents, on the other hand, can better teach their children the morality and values of a family which a teacher cannot because the two are of separate families.

Therefore, the teachers must teach the general subjects and theories and the parents to teach the values.

Bosses aren't homeschooled. Homeschooled people are generally far more empathic and open-minded than schooled children. Also, most people who are nice are shallow and rotten to the core. I would be very careful around anyone who's acting nice too much, they're usually very dishonest.

Educating our kids at school or home is a good thing. It depends on their parents. If their parents want their children to be excellent in their academic achievement,  then homeschooling is a right choice because I see that homeschooling only focuses more on children's academic achievement or their cognitive skill. Meanwhile if we send our kids to school,  they will get a holistic learning which includes cognitive,  affective,  and phsycomotoric skill. Those three skills that we can get at school. They will be good at their academic,  non academic,  and their personality.

We send them to school to help them see how reality works. And without that experience our kids will be ignorant to future interactions with people they did not encounter. In school there will be competencies and real life interactions through real students. It is most likely to help the child be more active and less likely to have struggles with real life challenges.

You can see on the internet how ignorant, intolerant and tribal people are. No need to go to school for that.

School is a formal place for them to be educated. This place is also a better for socialization.
It is good for our children to meet other children or people so that they can see their uniqueness and difference with them.
The school is also their second home and the teachers are their second parent surrogate.

Actually, to educate children is the obligation of parents, the basic education required a mother or father to teach it
But with their preoccupations forgetting it plus government regulations that require learning by the rules in the covert

Because going to school isn't just about putting knowledge in your head, it's about interacting with your peers and everything that entails.

I know one person who has become a successful businessman after individual training at home. Since he could study at a convenient time for him and not be nervous because of a small failure in the schedule, he learned the information much better than those who studied at school.

teaching is not an easy task, and should be done by soneone who is professional and competent to do so. It requires a lot of experience and knowledge which not all of us have acquired or are able to acquire. As everyone is an expert to some particular field, so are teachers or educators, specialized in teaching other people about things. And it's good that way, imagine if everyone had to do it themselves, it would be a dissaster and besides that, the children need to "get" together to grow up and get used to social circles. If we'd teach them ourselves the negative effects would clearly surpass the benefits

The school plays an important role in everyone's life. We learn not only about the education but also the extra circular activities, because of this child gets more talented in both the fields. In school he/she learns all the things how our life is going. And the main thing is the child does not listen to there parents
 but if the third person told the child he listens it quickly and agree with it why so.. These is the main reason to send the child to school. The child have to listen to the teacher with no excuses. There are exception cases but we say if kids will not be naughty they who we will be. Sending them to school is a culture as we are following it from the long time ago as schools are built. Educating kids at home is a nice thing but they will miss all those things from when the kid starts going to school till he/she completes its degree. These phase of life is so wonderful we all have our great memories of school. It can't be never made again. At these stage only kids get develop.

I personally studied at home as well and skipped school as much as I possibly could, because classes were a complete waste of time. I finished studying what others did in 3 months in two days and still got better grades. And certainly not because I'm better than them, I'm not. School just simply forces people to listen to the same boring shit for way too long without giving students the chance to improve their own skills. Eventually students just accept "how it is" and become zombies who can only listen, but not learn.

That's also why Politics (especially in the US) are so stupid. People just parrot headlines instead of thinking for themselves. Even if they try to think, they are incapable of doing so because school numbed their minds.

School is alright for governments and other entities who seek control. But it's absolutely terrible for each and every single individual human being.

Kids can learned a lot from home,at the very young age,they explore,curious and building they dreams,this would be enough reason why they do really have to send them to school to have a proper teaching to achieve they dreams and be somebody someday.And they have to be thought by the academe in the field of study chosen to attain its peak of knowledge and success.

We need to send them to school because we are not licensed to give them grades and we will educate them without going to school, though they will learn from us, we can't give grades to them or it will not be credited. So that's why we need to send them to school no matter how smart you are as parents.

Home is different from school. Yes we can educate them at home but what is the use of teachers if you can educate them by your own? We need to send them in school, as citizen in the country, we have the right to educate or send to school. Every child's right is to send them to school.

It is true, if we can educate the child at home is better. But many things and reasons that being consideration for parents if they have to educate children at home. Children need social to be able to adapt to the environment where he lives. And the social that will help children to be able to learn to face life. Education is not just talking about science. but also moral and ethical, which can be in the social environment.

To share opinions with other children and to make friends.

There's a lot of things that can be learned at school that can't be learned at home. Kids should go to school because they need to learn how to socialize and how to deal with different kinds of people. It teaches them how to make friends and more.

Like what? How to bully and get bullied? How to not ask questions and how to stop enjoying life? School is pretty much the worst place possible to learn socializing because it forces kids to be in a place they don't want to be, so everyone is anxious and agitated, which is the opposite of a thriving environment for social interactions.

children can get lot of thing's from school other than education.they can make friends develop social and behaviour skills;leadership abilities and so on.we can give only education at home.actually midern world its very difficult.becuae of modern life style parents dont have enough time to spend in tge home and educate children.they always busy with their jobs .so these days most of parents use schools as daycare centes for children..so my openion everybody shiuld send there children school.

Interaction with other kids and specially with girls. These experiences define sexual orientation.

Education begins at home as the saying goes....but what is more challenging to a parents is when their children start going to school. Sending them to school is far more better than stacking them at home since there is what we call socialization...a child cannot know his mistakes or if he is doing good without his peer's interaction.

We can really educate our kids in our home but it is not enough. formal schooling is important, All of the highest paid jobs requires a college degree and we we'll only obtain a college degree from formal schooling. We also don't have enough time to teach them all that we know.

generally we have to teach few good things in our home. but it is not enough to children. so we have to send children to the schools. here different-different religion children's are coming and study so they try to learn new things from them. and education is very important in every person life. so sending children's to school is good thing.

And we can't deny the fact that the kid's social capability cannbe influenced a lot by mingling with other students. There aren't many ways to develop a child's social skills at home so sending them to school is one of the best and easiest ways to do that.

Without school there would be no doctor, pilot, or any high-level work that matters to us. Although we are not doctors but we need a doctor, and what if the doctor in your city is uneducated? What if they do not have a medical certificate? Do you still want to go there if you get sick? Are you just going to rely on people who treat people with obscure black magic?
Would you like a plane with an uneducated pilot?

Doctors existed before schools. You don't need a school to learn how to fly a plane either. Neither do you need a school to study sciences, which has been done long before schools were a thing as well.

Not only socialization. There can be other problems like no contact with people from other groups, much poorer or richer people or from other races sometimes, biased teachings, parents not having the time and not being qualified to teach all subjects, personal tutors not being cheap, etc.


People can be home schooled or even unschooled for most of their lives and do those jobs. Depends on the country but could be enough they take some form of aptitude test. Then go on to a dedicated course or university like everyone else.

Unfortunately some countries have pretty much insane laws regarding homeschooling (it's illegal in a lot of Europe). I do think that it's the best option though, given that the parents don't have children before they are ready. If people made sure they were mentally and financially prepared for having children the world would be a much better place. Too bad you can't outlaw reproduction...

Not all parents have the time, skills, and health to home school their children. The purpose of school is to teach the children not just basic subjects.

That's because parents choose to have kids before they are ready to have them. Having kids before you are financially secure and mentally prepared in this day and age is irresponsible towards your children and humanity as a whole.

Educating your kids at home is the best  of-course because as we all know that's the  parts of a parents. the main reason in educating our kids at home Provides safe learning environment free from bullying  and he can learn more knowledge instead of grades. but sometimes parent send their kids to school  to have more knowledge in additional to the knowledge that they learned at home. one of the best thing they learned at school is Better Self-steem

we educate our children at home basic things such as washing your hands before eating, to be polite, respectful, among others but it is also important for them to learn many things aside from it like academics, and to be sociable part of their development.

do you know why government and good parents wants to send their kids to school? its because its better if we send kids to school so that there have an idea with society and so that they are not weird and freak with other kids. i do not want my kid to become that because other will tease him. and can cause belongingness

Can u teach every subject as teachers teach in school. Even u can do u have the updated knowladge.
My advice is childrens need to be socialised, and need to learn how to manage stress, time. So its better to send them to school. 😊😊😊😊

Yes, but if you have more childrens you can't give your all day to teach them at the same time and their has a different age level thats why We need to send them to school.

There are some things that parents can teach their kids at home but other things, they can't. Besides, parents need the time and the required knowledge to do so as either one or both of them are working. School is the best place for education. Also kids need educational certificates to get a job, etc. Parents will not be able to do that. In other words, it is not possible for parents to educate at home like teachers do at schools.

Home is our first school,our mother is our first teacher.At home we learned our first ABCs,good manners and right conducts but it was all basics.That's why we need to send our kids in school is for them to learn more,to become more sociable and for them to become a succesful human being in every aspects.

Because sending your kids to school, they will learn not only academics but also how to get along with others. Socialization is very important. We need to learn how to communicate effectively to others. We don't want our children to be alone, aren't you?

If all parents know and are equipped on how to teach their children at an academic level then I would say that there would be no more need for children to attend school. However, not all parents are that knowledgable and might mot have the strength, patience and the capacity to teach their kids hence we still stick to the classic yet effective way of education. Also, we have to put into consideration that most parents also have to work meaning that they wont have time to teach or coach their kids so attending school is the best option they can have.

Kids can be educated at home but they also need to send them at school to gain more knowledge and they also know how to communicate other children and to be educated.

That's right if you want your children to be eccentric, where will the society go when there are people like you? The school is not just a place to exchange knowledge but to make friends. Even you can not. Teach your child if you do not go to school for knowledge. Lastly, if you educate your children at home, the time you go to work, not sending your children to school is beneficial to both? Is education designed to nurture talent, the future of the country, to make our country strong?

School is a place to get socialize not only to study, so better to send the kids to school

Indeed. There is nothing better for raising a child than peer pressure.

Education is not only about reading books and knowing things...it also involves learning how to interact with fellow human beings and that is not what can be learnt at home since interaction is more of a 'practical' lesson.

So you don't have to "interact" with parents or siblings? And you can't meet people unless you go to school?

Because we can't teach them everything they still have to learn from the professional ,
And also if we are going to be their teacher we are going to be teaching them what we want for them.
We are the ones who will be planning for their future I think we should let them decide what they want for their own.

we send them to school because there are things that they can only learn in school. Cause we all know that the best teacher is our own experience. Secluding them at home will give them a culture shock when they come out of their comfort zone.

When I have a child I will consider home-schooling. At the same time, I believe that being learning how society works (for better or worse) will be useful to them. Sadly, you cannot shelter your loved ones all the time. It is better than to provide them with care, as well as the tools to adapt

Educating a child goes beyond teaching them only the things in the syllabus or text books, the privilege to be taught aside from their parents is good for them, even though i quite subscribe to the idea to always re-teach our kids because it strengthens the bound between parents and child.

In my country, it is legal to teach kids at home and some people do that but 99% of the population goes to public school. Those who teach at home are often strongly religious.

of course we can teach our children at home, but we can never teach our children how to interact to society, a child can doesnt have social skills can not success in real life.

If you think you can do a better job than the teachers, go for it. Children still need socialization though.

Family education is also very important, but good school there are many students together to progress together, the children will be more happy, social skills will increase

There are clubs (sports etc.) and other means to socialize, all of which are vastly superior to school.

Education is one of the very things that are required by every government in any country,
However, education is not only obtained in the formal scope alone.there are several types of investigations that are given informally, either directly or indirectly, such as: Moral education. Ethical education. Skill education. And various other informal education, in addition to school.

The child is not taught the skills of a child, that will be difficult during adulthood, we do not have the ability to communicate with people, so you can teach your child at home but will never be enough to Your child can develop in school.

In school they were taught by someone that was trained to teach and they will learn more efficiently if they were taught by them because they are trained to do so.

Do you believe in education system in your country? For me it is disaster in my country. So I don't want to take her/him to school. But I don't have enough time to educate my child. If I earn enough money to create this life I will prefer teaching her/him with myself. After I die, he/she will be crown prince or princess.

It really is a disaster in every country. I'd move to a country in which home schooling is legal before I'd have any kids. Schools just destroy natural curiosity and playfulness, which is going significantly lessen the chances of a happy and fulfilled life.

we must take care of our children, as our parents cared for us, so we must give our children education.

Yes, but not by sending them to schools.

Avoiding the children of sending them to school is the miss opportunity for them to explore and discover the things which are not available in the house. Maybe there are parents that can provide a personal teacher for their children, but the experience that only the school can provide which can possibly leads them to realize the meaning of life is what the parents voluntarily ignored.

The only opportunity schools provide is the opportunity to lose your curiosity and drive to explore. People who went to school usually don't care about exploring anymore and just want everything "now" and "fast", because the exploration process is not relevant in school.

Don't need a private teacher either, especially not with the internet.

I would love to hear the solutions for socialization considering homeschooling.

Possible ways to foster socializing include getting in contact with other families who homeschool their children, offering your children to go to a sports or similar kind of club that they enjoy, they can go to music school and/or band practice, or they can just socialize through the internet. I'm sure there are countless other ways too.

We should send our kids to school for them to learn how to communicate to others and for them to enjoy being with others...

Education from school comes from the government, the government has a standard learning, each school has to reach that standard to continue, if they don't, the government will shutdown those schools. The purpose of that is to have a standard knowledge for every people on a country. If you just teach your kids at home, they might lack the needs that the standards require. And if you educate your child at home, the government will not recognize it as proper and formal education that is legal to their country.

Unfortunately, many parents do not have the opportunity to educate There children at home because of the work.

And why should these standards matter? If these standards were important, people wouldn't have any problems with money or health. So clearly something isn't going right in formal education.

You have a point.
But school is a sort of a step ladder from home to a more challenging environment.

Not really. School is the opposite of challenging. School has to work for everyone, so it can't be too challenging or parents will complain about their children not being able to clear the challenges presented to them. University isn't really different either and it's getting easier and easier because degrees are now mandatory for jobs, so the difficulty gets tuned down so more people can get a degree.

Sending our kids to school or having them a home schooling is the parents' consideration. Both of them have the advantage and disadvantage. As the parents you know the best for you kids. You just have to consider which one do you want your kids are capable of. Do you want them to be great at their cognitive level,  affective,  or psychomotoric? You can find more information about it or search on the Internet. Be wise!

There so much you can learn from going to a traditional school compared to learning from home. In our competitive world, students need to be exposed to the reality wherein they will have to deal with several types of characters/personality, and school is the best place for that. They will learn how to challenge themselves to be the best in class and they will also learn to fend for themselves against bad people or bullies. The real world can be tough on students, but if they will learn to cope with hardships, it will be very rewarding for them.

Kids have to know how to socializate. School is a little society, where a kid gets to know how to communicate with people.

What was your plan then? Let the Internet teach your kids? (I'm sorry but I really don't get what kind of home school you are thinking.)

Because there are many limitations to what you can teach the child in your homes because other even got degrees for the children to have a proper education not just a home education where it is limited.

The value of sending our children to school cannot be over-emphasized. We cannot possibly know everything to teach our children. we may teach them morality, respect , kindness, love etc a little bit of alphabets and numbers, but the school will teach them other things about life and most times teachers in such field are employed to handle different field based on their area of specialty. you discover that every teacher transfer a part of his or her knowledge to the child, thereby balancing the equation. If we are the only one to educate them, there will be an in-balance, the child will be limited to how far our brain can give but the child at a tender age will learn association through interaction with other students in a school.

Cause our kids needs to have social live to
If they not going to school maybe their not gonna have many friend
Get to knoW anyone

We can never educate our kids at home due to the fact that going to school is not about academics only, it also includes Moral character and conduct. The School curriculum have already fashion out the best environment for children to sit in class comfortably and receive teaching under a conducive atmosphere, which will help the kids to learn better. Apart from the pictures on the walls other instructional materials which are available only in the school. What about Library for books to study and also a standard laboratory which can never be found at home, and many others. so we cannot properly educate our kids at home, best for them is to send them to school.

I just realized that the long post I've written never showed up on here. So here's a short version.

Just provide an environment where they can do a lot of different things and let them freely move with their interests. Kids are naturally curious and playful and will try anything and everything that comes their way. Only when they get into school they start forming bullshit opinions about what they can or can't do and start associating anything that takes effort as "bad" or unenjoyable. Never tell them directly what to think and just help them think of questions to ask and answer instead. If they get stuck help them find a new approach to a problem that they haven't though of before, but don't tell them any solutions. If they approach life from this perspective they will never have any real problems, since it'll just be challenges to solve rather than problems to avoid (like in school).

Just look at a young child, that keeps spamming "why why why", and then compare them with a child that has entered school. It's pretty obvious that school ruins children's curiosity, creativity and drive for exploration. And then they replace that with social media and other bullshit and get depressed because they never fulfill their potentials and are too scared to follow their passions. School is for creating robots that run programs, which is exactly what school was created for when factories first appeared during the industrial revolution. Thus schools are no longer appropriate for children of today.

parents can teach their children basic things a child must learn or know during his/her childhood but not all parents know everything, more important things must be learned by children in order for them to learn how to cope up with life and for them to use it for their future and it can only be learned if parents send their children to school

perhaps well-developed countries, where all families live in abundance, it is possible such an option. When a child can be brought up at home or hired caregivers at home. But in other situations, when parents are forced to work, children receive education and upbringing in kindergartens and schools. This is normal for today.

Parents aren't really forced to work when they have children though. They just have their priorities backwards. It's much more sensible to secure your finances first and then have children. But uneducated and shortsighted people have kids first and then complain about all the problems they didn't anticipate.

Who will bring up and teach children at home, a grandmother or grandfather? Or perhaps the parents? Who know all sciences perfectly? Well, hiring coaches does not have enough money. Therefore, the school is the most optimal option.
But if you have money... then...  8)

Because going to school isn't just about putting knowledge in your head, it's about interacting with your peers and everything that entails.

Yes parents can educatw their chikdren at hime but childrens cannot get a diplona, degree and certificate that they finish school. Going to school is different from learning at home. Children can learn wider with the help of the teachers and professors.And they can aslo get diploma and a degree that they need in the future fot work purposes.

Character building? Educators aren't the only teachers in school. They get to learn from their classmates, friends, and most importantly experience.
They learn how to get up, and become better. If intellect isn't the only factor here.

What are they going to learn from their classmates if their classmates are completely oblivious themselves?

we need to send our children to school for having friends and get them into an open commmunity, gathr self steem and learn alot from different people, we cant team them all they need at home what we can do is to teach them the foundation they need once we are out there

I think the existing school system of my country doesn't satisfy the currect children needs. So I will have to look for other ways for my kids education. May be it will be home teaching, may be some other forms of education will appear till that time

Because kids need to be with other kids. Learning together, playing together, and experiencing new things together. It helps build their character and makes them unique and distinct.

Yes, we can educate our kids at home but we still need to send them to school because what we can teach them is not enough for the student to learn a lot. They also need to socialize because if they are only having a home-study, they could not develop their social skills and it will make them be so ignorant of having conversation with other people. They also need to have interactions with other kids at the same age so they will not feel like imprisoned. Because as what I observed, those kids who grew at home without interacting with other people at the same age are not comfortable to socialize because they are used to be alone and no one to talk to.

Don't you think that families with home schooled children have more or less same values, way of thinking etc...? (Same can be applied for music school.) How will a child learn to cope with something that is far out of his/hers comfort zone? Internet is the most unsociable way of socializing, it is easy to stand your ground behind a computer and something totally different if you have to do it in front of a group of people. I believe that homeschooling doesn't give you a variety of  needed interactions with different groups people and it does not prepare you for real life.

Kids can learn different things and knowledge at home but sending them to school is the best and right thing to do. They can learn new things in school and at the same time, they can improve their social activities because of their friends. There also some activities that schools can offer that they cannot do in home. Schools also mold their students to become a good role model to other people.

I know some children who were trained exclusively at home and even did not go to kindergarten..and how parents did not try, it's very difficult for these children to perceive many rules of social life.

in any case, at school they will teach you what you will not teach) At school, children both learn and rest, they have a new acquaintance. They learn to communicate) And at home what? only you and all. And the child must develop in all sverah)) But in general, parents also work, and I think not much time will be that they would teach their child

The first one is they need to socialized with other people, this will teach them how to blend in society, it will teach them a lot of new things and school facility is better than homeschooling and kids need to socialize with the same age kids, this is good for their mental development

No, they don't have the same values. And that's irrelevant anyways if you do your job as a parent right. It doesn't take much to talk to your kid about different possible ways to handle situations.

And socializing in school is a complete joke anyways. I honestly don't understand how people can even try to make that an argument. In school you are forced into a random group of people that you have nothing in common with. There's absolutely no merit in forcing your child into such a situation when you can just let it choose freely who it wants to interact with.

And no, the internet definitely isn't the "most unsocial way to interact with people". If anything, the internet is a far better way of socializing because people can talk about their problems openly without repercussion if they want to. That's not possible in school at all, where you could easily get bullied or shunned for the rest of your time at school if you speak up about something. Not to mention that school is a place of mediocrity and lazy little shits who have forgotten how to live life. I certainly wouldn't want my kid to become another brainless zombie who just follows stupid trends just to belong to some herd of uninspired, lazy and incompetent people.

Kids are much happier when they can do what they want freely while being encouraged to challenge themselves as well as supported when things get rough. None of this happens in school.

If school was a good method of raising a happy and successful child the world wouldn't consist of 99% unhappy and unsuccessful people who look back at their lives in old age and whine about how much they have missed out on.

One of the best things parents can do for their children is teaching them to tolerate other people from all walks of life. School does this pretty simply and subconciously. By enrolling in schools children learn to live with different kinds of people and become great social beings. Without tolerance the world will self destruct because we are all different in many ways.

And, the kids will be brainwashed into tolerating stupidity.  >:(

Don't tolerate stupidity. Fix it by teaching the kids right, at home, where they CAN be taught right.

Not every time we will be at home to teach them.
And also, parent alone don't know all things.
Sending our kids to school is to gain more knowledge, wisdom and understanding

i am also thinking why we need to send our kids to school, even if we can educate them. but my mom said that its better at school because as a parent, you do not have all the experience in all thing and you do not have knowledge in all things, so there is a school that will fill the lack of knowledge you thought to your children

There are things that we can learned inside and outside the school.We need to send our child to school not only to learn anything about there subjects, but also to learn how to socialize and join themselves to other people.While inside the house, it is where the values and good attitudes needs to be taught on the child.

And what about friends, the world around, what development will they get sitting in the four walls of the house. With whom they communicate, develop, they will know. You are delirious, turn on your mind, your children should develop fully and not be wild people with a poor lexicon.

It is not only about education, it is also about interacting with other humans of the same sort - ie children. This is usually necessary, or the children may never integrate in society later. But of course school is usually quite destructive for the most clever piupils' potentialities, so I see your point.

for me "homeschooled child"  sounds a bit weird. like what's wrong with these kids? are they disabled in any way? 
it's not like being disabled is wrong but you know it may prevent child from going to school. and if a child is fine why would they stay at home the whole time?

The roles of both teacher and parent are somewhat similar but one is always greater than the other in certain aspects. Teachers can teach the general subjects better than the parents. These subjects include math, science, language and literature. Teachers have a better affinity and mastery over these subjects, however, they can teach these subjects better specifically to children who has no clue of what the subject is. The parents, on the other hand, can better teach their children the morality and values of a family which a teacher cannot because the two are of separate families.

Really glad there are more people who see things the way they are on this forum.

We can teach them at home some basic things but we cannot teach other things they need to know. One more they need to show thier talent to other so its better them to send in school. How they can show thier talents to other if they stay in our house.

By uploading them on Youtube?

School doesn't only educate us .It also teach us how to behave with others,how to make friends and many more.So it is very important for kids.

First hand education comes from home, the basic things a child learns were taught by our parents but sending them to school is like formal learning, although there are some parents who prefer their child to home schooling for some valid reason but still they needed to send to school so that they can learn how to associate to other people and to learn other things that may help develop their personality, and mentality.

Sending them to school will build their discipline and help them learn how to deal and mix with others, from different culture and status!

I know you have heard of the saying no man is an island.
That quote is also applicable here. Learning in a group is much better than doing it alone.In a group, there's competition where children tend to strive more than being home tutored. The experience you will get in school is valuable and you can't get that if you are just at home.

I'd have to agree, the school in itself is an institution where learning is concentrated. Aside from textbook lectures, the school also melds cultures, introduces new people with different quirks and to learn how to work for a single goal. Although there are flaws on school, the institution is actually a great building ground to build character. The school administration and teacher should also keep in mind to improve and tweak their teaching techniques so they could relate to the students

It is because you can't teach everything in your house. Do you teach your child all the academic lessons? I think not. You can teach your child to be a better person in life, you can teach that in your home but not all. All the things that a children can learn is in school. If you are a teacher, why not. You can only educate your child in life but not all.

Home is different from school, It helps us build opinions and have points of view on things in life. People debate over the subject of whether education is the only thing that gives knowledge. Some say education is the process of gaining information about the surrounding world while knowledge is something very different.

School is an experience where you can build ideas and share it with others, Also helps the child to know the norms in real life of what is good and what is right. To build his/her own self in the journey of discovering his/her passion in life.

We send our kids to school so that they can socialize with other people. Schooling is not only about gaining and gaining knowledge, but is is also inclusive of the imparted lesson when they socialize with other students.

Which kind of Education are you referring to because as I know Parents only give their wards home training at home because I haven't come across any parent who will sit down and begin to teach his wards western education unless just helping them with theirs assignments or project giving to them or if the kids have any disability. Education one's parent gives differ from the one receive in school.

It's not just about the education that the kids are getting. It's more about the socialization build up for them as well. When kids join different kinds of team as well, they will learn. One of the best that they can get is exercise because of joining in sports activities.

It's true that we can educate our kids at home instead of at school. However there will be several things that we can't get from homeschooling. Kids need to socialize with others. Having our kids to homeschooling surely will effect on their social behaviour which isn't good for their physiological aspect. Besides homeschooling tends to give the cognitive activities only,  and lacks of physical activities which isn't good for their psychomotoric aspect. That's why immersing our kids to public school will cover all thing that our kids need in their growing process.

really need a child go to a School to learn many things. So that they can learn to interact with people.  really they go to school to learn many things. Because we fail to teach our children at home. Therefore with teachers because they teach our children about the importance of education

Because society wants to teach our children instead of the parents. It's about indoctrinating our youth into one way of thinking. Creativity and entrepreneurship is dying because of this. Think of how many successful drop outs we have. (Zuckerberg, Bill Gates, etc.)

Because what we are learning in school is different at home.
In school we are learning for education for our future, to be professional at work, to be knowledgeable at all things and also at school you can enhance the connection of a kid to others, it makes the child socialize.
While at home, yes you can study at home but isn’t it enjoyable while you are learning you get what the world is.

school is not only about subject matters. it teaches  students knowledge, attitudes and skills.Although we can teach children at home they are not taught good values at home. that's why the schools are there

How many parent have the time to educate their child at home, how many parent can even boast of having 60% time not to talk of educatingthe child. Thats were school comes in. School is there to educate our children. They have all the time to teach them virtually everything we couldnt teach them at home. in ters of maral and culture.

of course we need to teach our children at home for the better and assurance of their education.education is in school not everywhere.we teach our children so they can forget their studied at school especially in their homework.schooling for children is the best for them for more learning and fun and to have friends too.

Because i think the standards in school is different from the standards in home. Also, it it very important for a child to learn how to socialize and make friends with others. It is how a child learns more and appreciate the world and knowing who she/he really is. Because the world outside is much happier than just staying at home.

Home study is not that bad but let our kids interact and socialize with other kids. Let them see the world and learn from it.

Children shoul grow and develop in society, cooperate with teams and learn how to communicate effectively to achieve their goals

I agree with you. Yes kids can learn different things and knowledge at home but sending them to school is the best and right thing to do. School is an association that goal is to mold a student into a better one that possess a good characteristics. They can learn new things in school and they can improve their social activities because of their friends. There also some activities that schools can offer that they cannot do n home. Schools also mold their students to become a good role model to other people.

I think it's because we have grown accustomed to the norm that a degree and the right school is a vital factor to landing a good job in the future.  It also has something to do with our belief that schools will still offer things/learnings that homeschooling can not as there are topics/matters which are best learnt from professors.  I do agree though that socialization is not just learned from school as there are many ways by which children can get that nowadays. 

True education comes from within.. most of the parents send their child to school because of socialization, but i think this is not the essence of education in school, a school is the new environment where your child can examine and explore their different skills, like building their trust and self confident as a human. it is like going out from their comfort zone, and experience a world like life without the comfort of their parents, where they stand in their own, make their own decision. and improve what they can be from where they are right now.

If you have enough money, then educate your children at home, it is not forbidden and is actively practiced in developed countries. But many parents can not afford to hire tutors, so their children study in general schools.

to learn to interact with other people they cant learn if kids always at home so they need to send them into the school

Most parents are busy with their own work, home schooling is one alternative to provide education. For socialization problems can be overcome by inviting our children to play with friends his age in the park, playground, play with our neighbor's house. But it is better to give education to our children in Sekolahan. Because the school has a curriculum that has been arranged neatly and proven.

Exactly.. It is impossible to give our children proper environment for learning  at home, we need to send them to school so that they could get a chance to learn from their age fellows. The most important thing which they learn at school is sharing which helps them in the later age to grow into a positive personality. At schools they learn to accept  each other in positive way.

I agree with you. It's just simple. Yes kids can learn different things and knowledge at home but sending them to school is the best and right thing to do. They can learn new things in school and they can improve their social activities because of their friends. There also some activities that schools can offer that they cannot do n home. Schools also mold their students to become a good role model to other people.

People have to communicate to each other, learn how protect yourself from others. You can't learn it by sitting at home.

If you can provide your kid with home education and bring him to various clubs and events, where he'll have to socialize (inevitably), then my congratulations! However, not that many parents are able to devote so much time to their kids. Simply because of work. Thus it's much more convenient to send your child to a good comprehensive school.

It is impossible for parents to teach each and everything to their kids. Not only teaching and learning process is there, character building is also important. Children can learn much more things from other kids than their parents. Values and morals can be taught at home but not academic stuff. Sharing and confidence are the most important things which a child can learn from school.

I dont say we can not teach them at school, but i want them to have social skills to develope themselves to adapt to society in the future.

For them to practice their interaction with other people. Interaction is important because it maximazes the persons communication skills that no home schooled kids could ever have.

I don’t think that we can teach our kids all the things that they need to learn at home. For example, the socialization of the child, we cannot just keep the child at home without even getting the chance to gain some new friends, what more when he or she grows up?

I do not think that if children are at home, children will learn more and grow as they go to school

Yes, parents are the greatest teacher and mentor since day one of our kids, but it's is really necessary to send them at school even though we are the greatest. Children nowadays are much more following or listening their respective teacher than us ad parents.. They developed such good value of learning and also developing our children know how important the word companionship, getting new faces and friends can developed their ability to lived in social community. It's important to send out our kids at school not only about learning but coping such new things everyday passes of their lives with new surroundings.

There are many information in the school where they can learn more.

Kids need school for them to become more knowledgeable person

And also kids need to know how to communicate with other people, they should know how to be independent while they are still in a young age.

That is important to our children we need to send at school  they can learn in future

C'mon people in Africa their only dream is to send kidz to school and we are now too cool for this?!

we do not send our kids to learn something from school, we just send them to collect silly papers for them to get a job to serve when they come to the age of working. thats why!

Actually not all parent can educate their child at home. Why?? Because at home there is no experience teacher. If you are good teacher i think you only good in 1 or just 2 aspects no more.
At school there are many teachers will teach your child to be good and clever.

That is true. And in most of the cases, the parents may not be qualified enough to educate their children (don't get me wrong, teaching is a high-skilled profession and not everyone is capable of doing it). Also, teaching requires 6- 7 hours of effort everyday. I am not sure whether the parents can afford to spend that much time, outside their full-time job.

I do not like school at all. but unfortunately we need schools. school is not just a place to learn. people do not learn anything from teachers at school. it is good to be in contact with other people. projects, conferences, symposiums, sightseeing ... school is not just a building and a course. So everyone should go to the book.

Exactly. Sending our kids to school does not mean only getting knowledge but character building is also very important of our kids. Socializing is better than sitting idle in homes or using gadgets which is not good for our health. A child can learn that things from another child which he/she is unable to learn from home or parents.

learning in the school will help in growth and development of a child. Their socialization to other people and knowledge acquire to their peers.

we can teach our child basic knowledge at home.. But schools can give them keen details on every knowledge the should know..

School is where we can learn and master things, specially the arts we are in and of course, the skills. We cannot make a living out of what our parents are teaching us, unless we want to be a house maid or a helper or if our family is a bit wealthy, then a businessman( this is I think happens to only few children ).

We need to learn other things too, since we are not going to stay at home for the rest of our lives, so we better go to school.

school is a place of theoretical learning, while our homes are more like the practical workshop of life. All things learned at school(like, Personal Hygenie, Respect, etc...) are demonstrated at homes...
in learning, theory and practical knowledge is very essential as such either of them should not be neglected.

yea, school gives children the opportunity  to evaluate themselves and their level of comprehension  by allowing them compete with other children who  the same teaching period with them.

No matter how good a tutor and his student are, what thing learned cannot officially be recognized without passing through an approved school.
Therefore, we can categorically say that School is basically a place of formal education and Homes are places for informal education.

I think we need to send children to school because they are young so they need so social skills.

Children need to learn good moral and right conduct. We can educate them with that at home.

Adding to that, there are now what we call homeschooling fpr children who are unablebto go to school on a regular basis. But the thing for this one is socialization. If a child is licked up in his house all her life, do you think she will be effective in crowds? I dont think so. We can only teach so much in our homes we need to send our sons to school.

educate children at home, this doesn't mean shutting their homes and not letting them out into the streets...and perhaps to protect girls from humiliations that lower her self-esteem at a young age.. choose an environment for children when their psyche is being formed...then they would have been able to enter the life like the stronger and psychologically healthy people

Yes we can educate our kids at home but I know that we are aware that it is not enough to educate them at home because in our childhood we are learning on how to communicate with our classmates how to become friendly and not grow as an introvert. Because in school we can learn a lot of things, a diversity way of learning which is different at home.

yes we can educate our kids at home but dont you think that when they study in school is the most important? Because in school they can learn a lot of things because when at home they cant get the enough knowledge to educate them.

Everyone needs to be socializated. That's why schools are needed.

It is because not all of the parents have the luxury of time to teach their own children. Some work 8 hours or more in a day and when they go home, they have to deal with transportation and traffic. So the only time they have is to rest and have that little bonding time with their family.

If only schools didn't achieve the opposite...

We dont have enough teacher to educated this children one by one and if your telling tbat parents do it how come they will they neer to provide fpr them to eat

The education you give your kids at home are quite different from that of schools. The time spent with your kids at home, cannot be compared with the time teachers spend with your kids and impacting knowledge into them. The school, unlike your home have what is called curriculum.

You can literally download any school's curriculum on the internet and just cover the topics with your kids. Heck, you might even learn something yourself in the process.

Home is not a formal way of educating a person it could be the backbone of education its where they learn the descipline. However formal education must take place on a diffent set up.

My brief 2 cents: How well can you teach them at home? Are you subject specialist in all topics?

Wont they missout on socialisation skills by staying home? Wont they fail to meet people different to themselves?

Why would you want to home school? Are the local schools really that bad?

I understand why some opt for this, but for most people, its the wrong answer

You don't have to be a specialist in all topics. Everything that is taught at school is taught as such a basic level that anybody could learn the whole curriculum (for a given subject) in a single year from scratch. Parents can also learn with their children, there's no need to teach them. It's best if children learn to figure things out by themselves anyways, and all they need is some guidance to make sure that they have broad interests and don't become afraid of taking challenges. School makes people afraid of challenges, which is why homeschooling has every potential to raise a much healthier and happier human being than any school can.

Don't know about You, but in our country children are forced to go to school. This is one of the types of government control over the minors. That is, it would seem - allowed any type of training: online training, private training at home, all what you want, but in the case of training not in school the family will be pursued  by the guardianship, which will monitor every step. Therefore, the "non-standard" training use only in rare cases. In General, I think that without school the child are not adapted to adult life in society. His view of society and adult life will be distorted.

Great! Most adults are clueless donkeys after all.

Now home schooling is gaining momentum. I know families where children learn at home. And this has a place to be. But for me, the downside is limited communication. Still, the school environment is much greater. In addition, not all parents have the opportunity to stay at home all the time. Many need to work.

We need to send them to schools as not all parents have the patience or the skill to teach everything to their kids. Parents have a lot of responsibility like providing for their families so they would have to work as well which can't be done when their kids are around.

home is for values. school is for socialization. not everything can be taught at home and in school too.

You don't need schools to socialize. If that was the case humanity wouldn't exist in the first place. Heck, even monkeys socialize and they don't have schools.

becouse not everyone could do this. Job plays a big role in our life, for example. Education is not so important like knoledge, but children should know how to work in society

We can not actually educate our kids at home because of limited available facilities that are needed to train and teach a child for the purpose of acquiring the type of educational standard that the ministry of Education and other Educational center have put in place. Laboratory facilities, comprehensive library and other facilities in the school premises can not be transferred home or have an exact type at home for the purpose of  teaching. With these and non availability of other Teaching aids make it impossible to educate a child at home. Also the child will lack socialization and will not interact with fellow children and that may affect the child Psychologically.

Because Education in school is Formal. It is the training ground not only for socialization but also for work. And also It's better to argue or interchange opinions to actual person, there is a limited information if just for example you use written communication.

Because we do not just need academics to learn and grow. We also need to know how to communicate with others and how to socialize. And with that we can only gain that by sending them to school, letting them with other students. I believe maturity comes with experience. As a young minds, they have to experience important things to mature and to grow not just knowing academic subjects.

I think you're not good enough in all majors to teach your kid about the whole life, let school does it, they have enough resources to make it come true.

I don't agree with home school. Kids needs to socialize and be exposed with different kinds of people. In that way, they will become a better person in the future. Enrolling a child to a home school was a mistake, dealing with a child's stress can be difficult. The child need to defend himself on why he was at home school every time when he talks to friends or relatives. Cost can also be a problem since home schools are expensive. The motivation of the student will be difficult to maintain and the discipline to learn on his own will be hard for the child. Finding effective teacher for the child can be difficult as well.

While some kids are being home schooled, it doesn't mean that all children should be dealt the same. Not all parents are equipped or have the skills to teach everything to their kids, especially the more complex subjects.

our kids need to go school to learn that we cannot teach to them, and our kids need to learn to socialize to other kids, so that they can adopt to new environment, to developed confident and learn things on their own ways. 

Human brain is not a simple thing. It has made from a very complex way. As a human being, human can't live alone or as a caged animal. Human is trying their best to be free every time. If you try to educate your child at home, child will become a caged animal without interaction of the society. The child must have to have interact with the society, because one day they are the people who rule the society. In order to do so, he/she should have to have a good knowledge about the society. How people behave, how people change from a person to person. To get such a knowledge, you should release your child to the society. Educating kids at home will not do the above mentioned facts.

 we need our kids to send in school even we can say that we can educate our kids at home..we can teach our kids the good values and characters but in terms of academics it is better for a child to gain knowledge for the professional teachers.

Yes we can educate are children only in house but it is better to send them also in schools so that they can have friends . school is not only for education , you can also learn how to be socialize , you can also learn how to be independent .as they say school is the second home for the children .You can learn both in house and in school .

why children are sent to school because in school can add knowledge knowledge of discipline history manners in school also multiply friendship and socialize premises stout people if only educate at home child lack socialize with public and environment

There are many reasons on why parents send their kids to educate at school.Like if they don't have enough time to teach their children and if their kids go to school, then they will get more experience than studying at home.

Because learning at home and learning at school has a lots of differences for example the presence between the home and the school . As a students we will not only focuses on the academics but also we want to have a social life with those other students because we know that it will plays a important roles for developing, building and also to strengthen our moral character. And for my personal opinion the knowledge we've learned in our home is not that enough to survive in a certain society but the knowledge from school will serve as great factor to face those challenges that we may encounter in the future positively.

I think, children need to be in the community, communicate, learn to work in groups

I think we don't have enough knowledges to teach our kids because we're not expert in education. We could break our kids if don't teach them in the right way. So let them go to school is the better ideal.

I think its different in school, school have facilities, teachers, clasmates and other activities to learn, to grow and to experience what ordinary children have. Parents need to support their children in school, like doing assignment, encourage them and guide them.

Learning from home and school has a difference. We can teach our children at home with manners and how to value things while children can learn from school is to how to be independent. School has a classmate , so that they will learn how to be friendly and from school they will learn how to become a leader or a member.

Pendidikan disekolah sangatlah penting karena cara mendidik disekolah dengan didalam keluarga sangatlah berbeda.kalau disekolah semua ilmu pengetahuan bisa diperoleh sedangkan pendidikan didalam keluarga cuma sebagian yang didapat intinya pendidikan dalam keluarga hanyalah pendukung

We need to send our children to school so that they can learn more knowledge from their teacher. They can learn socialization with their classmates, friends . And they can adopt in their surrounding. In    school teacher is the correct individual to teach our kids because they study the behavior of the children which they handler. 

Children don't need only education at school. They also learn social life and discipline there..

home schooling,
especially now in the age of video games, internet and online forums.
you need more that ever face to face human interaction.

"
Education in school is very important because the way of educating the school with the family is very different. If all schools of science can be obtained while the education in the family only partly obtained the essence of education in the family is only a supporter"

sometimes it need other people to tell us if what we are doing is good or not so therefore, sending our kids to school is giving them the freedom to be with other people and let themselves be open to them.

peбeнoк нaxoдитcя в oбщecтe, oн yчитcя вecти ceбя пpaвильнo в oбщecтe,yчитcя знaкoмитcя, oбщaтьcя c тaкими жe дeтьми кaк oн,дoмa нe тo, yчeбa yчeбoй нo пoтoм oбщecтвo тaкиx мoжeт eн пpинять..эти люди выpacтaют зaбитыми..пocтoяннo нaxoдяcь в кpyгy ceмьи..a кoгдa нe cтaнeт мaмы и пaпы чтo тoгдa cтaнeт c тaким peбeнкoм...вoт  кaк тo caм oтвeт нaпpaшивaeтcя

Well , there is a difference between educate them at home and send them at the school . Yes , we can educate them at home but we can only teach them just a basic knowledge . Like , manners and count number 1-10 or ABC . Unlike once we send them at the school they can learn a lot . They can expand their knowledge . Aside of manners , They will know about our history and about science which is they can learn about part of the body ( internal or external ) that’s why we need to send them at the school . And sometimes we do have a job , we dont have a time to teach them because we already tired .

We need to send our kids at school because education is very important,the kid have many things to learn in school than in our home although we can teach our kids interms of good values but it is most appropriate if we send them to school.

Education provide at home by parents is totally different from that in school by professional teachers.
School education is also essential as it is required for building carrier ahead and in school kids got proper educating atmosphere.

On home we can teach basics and etiquette's but we cant give traditional school atmosphere of friends and school mates.

I think if you have time to educate your children, that's good but most people do not have time to educate them, they are busy to earn money so they send their children to school is the best way

it seems to me the best varinat to create small private schools so that children have the opportunity to learn and navigate comfortably for themselves...the learning system doesn't inspire confidence...especially in post-Soviet countries...as far as I know, that knowledge , which children receive there, they can't use further in life...it's very unfortunate to hear

I don't know at what solutions you refer to but i consider that the school environment, as long as it is a healthy one, it is important in the development of the child. There is not only the part of learning but also how to behave in society, how to solve group problems and so on.

Sending your child to school is one of the rights of every child,  schools are not only for studying but also learning things that would also build their character through socializing with other kids. 

Because we cannot teach our kids alot of things like science sports. Yes we can teach our kids at home but we have to send them at school so they excell what they are good.

Exactly .... it is impossible to teach each and everything to our kids at home, At school they not only learn education but are able to learn social values and sharing .. they are able to experience different things at school and it is a fact that we can learn better from experiences than from books, school polishes child's abilities, talent and confidence.

Yes, we can educate our kids at home but the reality is it won’t be enough. Our kids need knowledge far beyond in what we had. In every generations, the knowledge that was pass down changes constantly. Some are added and some are excluded. Also we can’t teach our children how to lead in reality when they are always with us. Our kids need to be independent and experience the life socializing with others.

school gives them exposure

our kids needs far more dan home education

home education is good but dey could do with more

There is a need to send the children to the schools/colleges as it not only educate them but also helps to develop their personality which helps them to become a successful in the future. We can not teach all the subjects and advanced professional studies at home, it is the responsibility of schools.  

I think there are still things that cannot be taught at home. One of which is the socialization of children. Socialization at school is a lot different. They will have and maintain friendship, the sense of belongingness in a group or to certain person can build self confidence and trust to other people. Also, in school there is a sense of competition. Children learn how to compete to other children and to themselves. Camaraderie is also one.

i believe sending dem to school is better and good for their growth

we just cant teach dem all at home

Homeschooling have a lot of difference in real schooling, yes you can educate educate kids same as educating kids in school but the experience so different, going to school is not only for educating kids but to explore the world outside, find they real self, and the socialization in school is the best way to build the personality of our children/kids.

Exactly. Important skills acquired from school are social skills and connections, along with scholastic knowledge.

goin to school is best option for our kids

We have to send them in school because they have to learn what the life outside home and have Friends and play have fun with other kids not only now how to read and write.

they just need to learn life outside home

everyone has different characteristics. talking about educational matters, it is very influential in this day and age.
why do we need to send children to school?
because, the school has its own rules and ways to educate our children.
different from what we teach at home

Because it is not about learning in academe. Life isn't about learning academics. Young minds should also learn and build their characteristics and attitude to be a better person while growing up. This characteristics of them cannot build just by staying at home.

so the child still needs to go to school, because there are more educated teachers than home , they will learn how to associate with other people. Also inside of school child can develop theit personality because of their sorroundings .

The formal learning should happen in the school. Though the parents are the first teachers of the kids at home but teachers were taught and train to educate the child and get formal knowledge. Besides, parents don't only focus on one thing at home if that is to educate the child , they need to go out and earn a  living.

Aside from being taught at home by parents and almost everything can be learn from internet and stuff. I think its way more better if we send them at schools for them to experience interraction to other people with their same age. For them to learn how to cope and adapt  through everyday challenges. To be competitive and to spend time with other kids and enjoy life.

Yes it is true that we can educate our kids at home but we have to send them to school for formal education and then later on have a degree.

I kind of agree. But most parents are so busy that they send it to school and there is a lesson that may be a bit complicated even now I do not understand because it is not in need in the real world, but the main education is about the morality of the child so that one day he becomes a good person.

The way we educate our children at home is far more than how they are being educated at school. At home , we discipline them, we train them and teach them the things that are necessary for their personal growth. We need to send them to school for them to know how to socialized with others and learn in academic aspects of life

If you really have this opportunity to teach at home, than the only reason of school is a socialization of your kid.

Actually, recently I thought about it that home education has a lot of advantages. You can avoid useless topics that are mandatory in the school curriculum or children can learn everything faster because they do no need to wait other pupils of the class. But the lack of communication with other children is a huge disadvantage. I do not understand how to fill this. Also children have to face all these school problems, get in situations that can teach them etc.

In my opinion, i think we still need to send children in school even though we can teach them at home because of the many reasons to consider at. First, children learn many things if she/he will be send in school. socializing to other children in school will help them strengthen them in dealing others as soon as they land a stable job. They will learn more and update themselves if they are studying in school. As we can see, both parents need to work together in order to meet the necessary needs of their family and so by this parents don't have the ample time teaching their children at home.They need to send them to school to equip children and learn many things that they will surely benefited in the long run. So whether we like it or not , parents need to send their children to school but sadly not all parents can afford to send their children to school and so our government must be aware of this !

How many parents are proficient in all the subjects a growing child needs to be educated in? Mathematics, literature, language apart from the literature, biology, chemistry, art, music, civics, philosophy, etc.etc. A parent needs to understand and be able to explain all those subjects to their child in an understandable, approachable manner. Teachers are professional pedagogues, they are taught how to present information to children of different ages with different needs. How many parents are proficient in that? Some probably are, but I highly doubt the majority of them are.

If you think some educational videos on the internet or other books might help the kids instead of letting them go to school, then you're wrong. They also need to socialize with others they are not familiar with. They must also learn not to depend too much on their parents and to stand on their own feet.

We actually send our kids to school because educating them at home is way too different from educating them at school. At home we help them develop their personal development, we discipline them so they'll know how to cope up with people in the society. We send them to school because they need that for their future attainment.

Honestly I think homeschooling is the best thing you can do for a child because you are only paying to school so that they can teach your kids but you can but you are not teaching your kids because you do not have enough time in your life, take some of your time and if you teach your kids there will be much more educated and experienced then all the kids around them. If you can give special care to your child you will get some extra credits in the future schools and colleges are required for a student but those are not necessary if a student has some real interest in studies because that's interest can help that student to develop himself there are many sources well you can learn like internet or books.

And the first teacher of us is our parents.  They taught us many things and most of them are essential and most important lessons in life.  We cannot simply teach our kids in our home because the basis now on finding a job is to put in your resume your educstional background and where you graduated.  Plus if they will be in scholl just like what you said they will understand much more things.

we need to send our children to school because of the school is our children get education that parents do not understand, in school right our children got a decent education and also get teman.kalau children at home we just add the science of religion.

The home  is the first place where education starts but we also need professional experience of teachers for more advance learning and development of character in our children.

School is just not to learn about so many boring subject, there is a enjoyable subject which is called a friendship & a great childhood memories. All of you should now sometimes remember your those school life with your best buddy. those memories sometimes bring smile in our tensed face. that is the main reason for going to school. Just only not for educate child but also make a great memories with their friends. thats why we need to send them at school. I agree that we can educate them at our home. but we are parents, some times we become so emotional that we can't punish them when they don't listen to us. But a teacher can do it. Because it is their resposibility to make them learn, for that they can punish them. so we need to send them school. Thank you.

Not all topics need to learn by a kid found at home, they need to go to school to widen their knowledge on everything. Many subjects were very important for a kid to learn like english, so that they can be competitive to communicate, math, every day we are using math like counting money. Therefore education at school os very important.

learning at home is different in school.
In school- You are surrounded by many people, you will meet new friends, enemies and you will learn from socialization and you will become who you are. while at home is just limited people which you will not be formed properly.

because they are not all learning at home only. as well as the behavior of the children .. so it is better for them to study at school than at home. and for that they also know more friends

Because we need to send them in proper school and they can learn all in school and our kids are to know everything and they can decipline properly in school and give to proper education in school

Its because teacher has more knowledge than to us as a parents, we dont know all the things they teach at school. Teacher must teach them and parents should guide them, so that they are more knowlegable. If children will not go to school how they can find job if they dont have diploma or degree. right? so we must send them at school to have more knowldege and to have a degree when they will find a job.

Really need children go to school, because it is a the formation of character, without the school he could not interact with peers him, the social will form of the characters are good for supplies when she was an adult

Parents have no ability to teach everything that their child needs to know. The kids also won't learn things that he or she can only learn in school like socializing and handling different situations.

yes we can educate them but we need to go to work to earn some money.

There is a difference between morals which you can teach at home and education you can get in school...

A child development is based on the primary socialization (family) and secondary socialization (friends, school). If a child has only the primary one, his development will not be fulfill. He needs the second one because it will allows him to see an other point of vue than the one of its family. He has to see more than what's in his house. If he doesn't have the practice to open his mind to others, then he won't when he will be adult. And, for example, it can lead to have a person who's not well-integrated in society. And who knows, it can lead him to make a mass shooting because he feels like an outsider and is psychologically unstable.

There are certain standards that needs to be attain in order to cope up with the society. Home schooling is Good but we cant just teach our kids with random facts there has to be someone to guide them academically.

School helps a lot in building a character therefore its needed.

I think governments want our kids to attend schools so they become good little institutionalized citizens that will obey without question.

I taught my kids to read and count before they could speak, so school has been a breeze for them & what they learn there is so simple it bores them senseless. It does have some advantages though, it's gets them off the video games for 8 hours each day. I'm not that impressed by the friends they make at school but I was allowed to choose my friends & I believe everyone needs that freedom as a basic human right.

I can't see them learning much of value until high school and even then a lot of that will be BS but that's just the world we live in.

Cause we are not professionals and know nothing about teaching techniques

I don't think that it is going to work that way. The children will remain loyal to the authorities until 14-15 years of age. But after that, when they learn the important things about the government and the authorities, they will start to question them. With each new generation, the kids are getting more and more rebellious.

It helps them to deal with the people and also helps them grow.

That's definitely what I've observed with my own kids, they aren't even in high school yet and they already see politicians as pathological liars. I'd say it's mostly from my influence and mistrust of politicians but youtube plays a big part. With access to internet and the ability to choose whatever they want to watch on youtube they are exposed to a much different world view (from trending youtubers) than the main stream media projects on adults.

So 8-10 year olds now pick up on the political views of older kids in the age zone you've used as an example and absorb those views without question. The rebelliousness (if that's a real word) is not such a bad thing in many cases either, I've seen kids filming police breaking the law and questioning the cops because they know the cop has broken the law, they seem to have moral compass that allows them to question anything they think is unjust.

Yes, you do have a point but there are parents who don't have the capacity to teach their children and also the patience for it. That's where a teacher comes in. They are paid to do that and if the children does not go to school because of these reasons then you'll be taking off the jobs of the teachers and their source of income.

Just guide them properly so they would see the truth only, some of the news in social media is one sided, and worst, misleading. Your influence really plays a great part on your child's judgement on things. That's one good part of educating a child in the house, they learn what you expect them to learn while in schools they would learn different things and probably.

But still, I would like children to be in school than just educating them, it would give them knowledge that I can't give them.

As a parent, I can educate my children at home only their characteristic. But when it comes to the academics I dont have idea so its better they send to the school where they can learn new things and meet other children.

There is a lots of difference between Home Education which is also refers to as home training and School Education!
You cant possibly give your Kids School Education at home so far you have your day job and that's why schools are created to deal with that!
The only major education we get at home is Morals!

send children in the school an important and necessary action for your kids, only in school a person learns to socialize, find his place in society, defend his beliefs and his thoughts. at home we can not explain much to the child, to the school there are excellent teachers who, in a clear language, explain to the child what is good and what is bad. at school, children learn to be friends and these ideas can be embodied in their happy life. the school is the most important stage of any child. school is a small life.

by going to school to make your child better understand the world and the rest. and also your child's school is taught with the right people to meet their needs. and develop talent talents especially like playing music, ballet, balls, and others they like. so it is very important to send our children to school.

Sending kids to school is a goo thing as they get to learn a lot of interesting things.

It is not needed but it is okay to send them to school so that you get some free time.

We should send our children to schools for learning because atleast they would be unable to chaos at home for even 5 hrs ;)

A school dedicates its total time for teaching students but at home we cant inspect them as much as they do.

The system is set up where you have to work to earn money to live. Most single wages are not enough to live off of. School is kind of like free daycare. It is better to teach at home but most people can't afford to. I am lucky enough to homeschool my child but most are unable. The system is very flawed.

It really helps everyone to grow and it is builds a good community in the country.

Formal education on a legal institution such as schools offer more than just quality education, it provides the social interaction
and growth that every child has to experience. It molds them more as person in society, gives them ways to adapt and
adjust with people and society. Home school is really a challenging task, I always wanted to be in one when I was
younger, I have to give credits to parents who have done so with their children. I believe sending then to
school is more productive in a child's mental, social, physical, emotional and spiritual state.
It's still the best there is.

If you do so, your child can not communicate much with the outside, and this can make your child autistic.

If the child can assess the pros and cons of the school
In addition, a completely different attitude causes children to study at home, if they have already understood for themselves all the pros and cons of school. There is something to push away from and to compare. By contradiction. Therefore, remembering my experience, I would advise to give the child the opportunity to choose, spending at least the first six months-a year with the class.

The most important element of home schooling is you, the parents. How feasible will this path be for you personally? After all, this is a considerable responsibility. The decision will require you to moral, temporary, and even financial investments. But, on the other hand, you have probably heard about how much the same resources are spent by parents of ordinary schoolchildren on homework and the entire educational process.

Therefore, I think it would be worth trying both ways to know what is most convenient for you and your child.

1. it's an important instrument of socialization
2. there are professional teachers who know more than parents
3. parents need to earn money an sometimes don't have enough time to teach children
4. private teachers are too expensive

ok let's say you have several degrees thta you are qualified to teach your child academically. Now how would you simulate events that could help develop social skills such as initiating communication, dating, heartbreak, building group of friends, etcetera?

I think you can do some of the said above, but it's kinda gross if you would date your child.

I don't think that people can teach children the way teachers do. Also, both parents usually work in my country so they don't have time to teach their children. Kids have to socialise with other kids as well.

School helps a lot in building a character therefore its needed.

I'm also not sure one can educate children at home, and not only in relation to the lack of knowledge. The parents'-children relation problem can appear; I can explain this deeper.

You know, from the very birth parents should give their children love and confidence that they (children) are secured and backed up. But on some stage of life children must begin to separate from their family to build their own life. This is a step-by-step process. When they are app.10 years old, children need a person who will make challenges for them, you can call this person a mentor if you wish. Why is it a bad idea for a parent to be a mentor? Just because challenges cannot be without failures. And the reactions of parents and those of mentors must differ! While parents should give their child support, a mentor must give a kick to move forward! If a parent gives a kick instead of supporting, this may hurt a little human. I truly believe we should all play our designated roles!

It is a good thing to send the students to the schools as it helps them growing.

Children need to interact with different people from different backgrounds. Else they will face trouble when they grow up. It is going to be tough initially, but having a few bad experiences in the school is much better than having the same later in life.

Child pshycology says that children doesn't take studies seriously when we they made to study in well familiar environment

There are some things that can be learned only at homes, and there are also things that can be taught at school. We are sent to schools because there are subjects and topics that are intended to be learned at school, we can meet different people, can learn to interact with them, and build friendships. At home, we can learn good morals, our parents are there to teach us good things, maybe basic grammar, math and history, but not all. Because our parents are also busy working, so that's when the teachers come in. They are here for us because they have been taught things to teach us that maybe our parents cannot.

It is not to say my kids will listen to me if I'd tried to teach them, while they go the extra mile to try and impress their school teachers. Waking up early, be on time, going out in even harsh weather conditions, socialise; it all teach them so much more than only school subjects.

We send them school to have a social exposure. To experience living with different kinds of people. And being with a lot of people gives learning to them. To know the real world.

Home is our first school, that's what they say, but it's only intended for moral and basic knowledge you need to know as a child.
The school is what we call our second home because we spent almost 10 months of our time every year starting from kindgergarten, to elementary and high school until we finished our bachelor's degree.
Here in the Philippines, most of the parents doesn't even reach highschool because of poverty. Its such a priviledge during their time if they have reached highschool. That's why they always tell their children that education is the only treasure they can give to their children. They make sure that their children go to school and learn even if they can't afford it that much. They can't teach all the knowledge a child needs to know so the school is where they send them.

It is not really important to send your kids to school, home education is the best.

It is important to send them to school so that they can learn to live in a community.

We need to send them to school to educate them though the parents serve as a first teacher we need to acknowledge the existence of teacher in our society because they are the one who knows what is the best for every student because it is their profession and specializations to facilitate learning....

Our kids need to send them at school to educate not just at home because our parents at home teach us first how to be a good person to be ready when we step out outside and socialize with others. And at school we need to go their just because school strengthen our foundation of knowledge , develop our skills , enhance our talents and mold our personality.

That is actually correct. Our house is not complete. If you look at the schools, it's too big and yet it is still incomplete most of the time.

Children needs to learn how to walk outside with different people and different professions around them because we cannot live just by ourselves, even kings are sending their children to school and letting them see what is happening in the world. They need to communicate, trade and exchange idea with others to expand their knowledge more.

Avoiding the children of sending them to school is the miss opportunity for them to explore and discover the things which are not available in the house. Maybe there are parents that can provide a personal teacher for their children, but the experience that only the school can provide which can possibly leads them to realize the meaning of life is what the parents voluntarily ignored.

You don't need to, but you have to if you believe in the system we're currently in wherein you have to get your education from a school to get a job. Though I think this is slowly changing as companies are being more open minded in hiring people based on their abilities and not from where they got their education.

We can educate our kids at home but socializing is part of learning. We need to send them at school to adapt others culture, knowledge and beliefs being at home is not enough we should let them go out with their comfort zone because school is the strongest foundation of knowledge, where they can enhance and develop our skills and talents, and mold our personality and moral.

The most talented of their abilities without communicating with other people, if they do not want or are not interested in learning, if there is no certainty of a direct connection between study and life success, and also the ability to beat in society.

parents can teach their children basic things a child must learn or know during his/her childhood but not all parents know everything, more important things must be learned by children in order for them to learn how to cope up with life and for them to use it for their future and it can only be learned if parents send their children to school

Agree with you. What is more important now is what we learned to do, not what we excelled in theory. Emotional education is more important than ethical education.

I dont think most families are capable of teaching their children at home. And if going to school was not a legal requirement then you would get waster families not giving a shit and their kids would suffer.

There is only one called diploma that you can only get when you finish elementary school and high school and college here you can use this diploma when you are applying for a job. If your home is only taught it is likely that you will not receive a diploma and a lot of work at home that should be taken into account. So there should be a teacher who only teaches them to study their study properly
