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

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.

[Folajuwon56]

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!

[timadok911]

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.

[Pemburu1]

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.

[remarkableshrivel7]

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

[smoggystream6]

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

[plumosemagellanicR]

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

[inactivechorley5]

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

[SupportBitcoin]

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.

[Strongball]

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.
