Everyone has an opinion. I was buying my weekly shop on Wednesday when the checkout lady asked Isabella why she wasn't in school. She explained she was taught by Mummy at home. The lady did not respond until I was about to pay whereby she suddenly said " Doesn't she miss out"
It is an immediate response from everyone. I feel I have to justify myself.
My only comment on what I am doing is "I am not saying that this is the only way to do things". You have to have the certain type of child that wants to be home schooled and can cope with it. This suits us at the moment due to all the experiences we have had and will have in the future.
My main point and vision if you like is more personal to the individual rather than the large topic surrounding home schooling. Home schooling is just a byproduct of my strong beliefs. I believe everything is good in moderation. Every child is different. Every child should be treated with respect and every child is unique and special in their own way. Therefore I believe that if our children are to have any morals from a positive upbringing then this needs to start at home. Even if this is half an hour of quality time in the day with Mummy or Daddy. We as parents need to start taking some responsibility for our children's actions and not blame everyone else for the things they do wrong.
I may be speaking to the minority as I believe everyone has the potential to be great parents. We just need to educate ourselves more. We need a licence for a cat or dog but not a child!
