Homeschooling: Social good or social ill?

[Ziveth]

What are your opinions on homeschooling? Is it in your country? Should it be legal? Do you consider it a generally positive or negative movement? Have you met or dealt with homeschoolers, and what you think of them?

In my country is legal. Students may study at home without go every day to school and after every year give the exams. I think is a good thing for people which for any motive cannot go to school (health problems, school too far away from home, etc.)

...to our local ásatrú church,
there was the approaching sound on children running:

the seven-year-old squealed "We rode the train! To Los Angeles!"

"The Science Library at the University of Southern California."
clarified her nine-year-old sister.

"Nine Ten Bloom Walk! Mom made a copy!" pointing to the older girl's hand.

"Our mother added Alice Brues' physical anthropology textbook..."

"Alice MOSSIE Brues!"

"...to the the church library. We travelled to Los Angeles and made a copy of this."

the older girl offered a thin print-out:

"Is this why she talks about preserving the environmental niche
in which each unique taxa speciated and thrives?

And the cataclysmic or gradual changes of our world
will require a pre-adapted variety
for the human race to survive in to the future?"

by "she" the librarian's older daughter
was referring to meine kleine über-mädchen's tendency
to speechify on her favorite topic.

"That originates from a childhood
with me cultivating my heirloom plants
and my son cultivating his varietal animals

and early exposure to Biasutti's encyclopedia of humanity."

pointing to the slim volume in her hand: "Your mother
has created a valued position in our community. As her apprentice,
you have produced excellent research."

"With my sister." she reminded me. now was the time
to encourage the younger child by rewarding her with her greatest desire
(since the death of her father in afghanistan) attention
from a male authority-figure. glancing down, for the first time in her life —

we made eye-contact "Yes. With your sister."

the smaller girl threw her arms in to the air
and danced in a circle, chanting "Bunak, Vallois, Montandon, Bunak, Vallois, Montandon..."

to my single elevated eye-brow,
her sister explained "So far, she can only read Russian and French. She can speak neither. Yet."

My Dutch friend who was banned. Why is no one answering your messages, do you live in the USA or are you still in Holland? I think it's time for you to go to a psychiatric hospital for treatment)

It's a bs I don't support. Child needs socialization at school to see how real life is, not live under the bubble at home with often academically uncompetent parents.
I know people from conservative circles who are trying to push this american thing in Croatia and they are bunch of morons.

Big NO!
