Hey gov overreach - Real America has had it with your leftism controling crap.

[calfoxwc]

time for the leftist governments to STOP INDOCTRINATING OUR SCHOOL KIDS.

Now that the virus crisis has shown truly what all the liberal schools have been up to -

40% say they will now home-school their kids !!!!!!

this is excellent.

Not at all what the survey says if you actually read any of it haha

 

And to think, you're the type of person that would be doing the homeschooling, continuing the cycle of inability to do any actual research

[Axe]

" The survey asked parents, “Are you more or less likely to enroll your son or daughter in a homeschool, neighborhood homeschool co-op, or virtual school once the lockdowns are over?” "

40% said yes. The point being there seems to be a significant current away from gov run schooling.

 

I liked this one

"The survey also questioned 2,122 registered voters on the issue of whether parents should be able to use tax dollars designated for education for the schooling of their choice."

The racial and political breakdowns are quite telling don't ya think sonny?

 

No matter how you want to spin it, this paints a picture of a significant part of the population wanting to bail from the public gov run indoctrination,, err, education system..

[DieHardBrownsFan]

Man, you Trumptards have gone over the edge.  Coronavirus must have fucked you up bad mentally.

[Gorka]

And those who do return will need to be re-indoctrinated.

[calfoxwc]

"and woodpeckers only know how to peck forever !"

[MLD Woody]

Again, the survey clearly did not show that "40% of parents will now homeschool their children"

Putting aside the actual, legitimate statistical concerns

If someone can't even describe what a survey is showing they have no business homeschooling their kids

 

I don't believe for a second most parents could teach physics, calculus, etc.

The types of parents who screech about public schools and how they think they can do better are not teaching physics because that cuts into Bible study.

Do you believe for a second the homeschooled take the same standardized tests as everyone else.... and that they also attend Ivy League schools?

You could make a pretty good free body diagram of Jesus on the cross though to figure out the force on each nail.

Too far?

 

 

I met a few homeschooled kids at Michigan and most of them were pretty awkward. This was all early on though. I hope their 4 years helped them grow socially. 

We've seen here that growing up in an environment without any diversity isn't the best thing....

they didn't think they were napoleon, like you, so THEY felt awkward?

Donald J. Trump

We’ve done a GREAT job on Covid response, making all Governors look good, some fantastic (and that’s OK), but the Lamestream Media doesn’t want to go with that narrative, and the Do Nothing Dems talking point is to say only bad about “Trump”. I made everybody look good, but me!

Not what Woody is saying at all Cal. How much  interaction did they have with kids their own age? If it was limited (likely) it's odds on their social skills are going to be  stunted.

It takes quite a bit for me to to just pause, look around like "wtf?" even though there is nobody around me and then say "judges decision?".  

This is... all kinds of cringe my guy.   You're like a straight edge kid hanging out at a Grateful Dead concert.

Homeschooling

Homeschooling in the United States: 2012, From the National Household Education Surveys (NHES) Program of 2012

In 2012, there were an estimated 1.8 million homeschooled students in the United States, which is an increase from 850,000 in 1999, when estimates were first reported. In addition, the estimated percentage of the school-age population that was homeschooled increased from 1.7 percent in 1999 to 3.4 percent in 2012.

Parents give various reasons for the decision to educate their children at home.

Parents' Reasons for Homeschooling Their Children (in percentages), by reasons parents gave as important and most important

Reason	2011-2012
A desire to provide religious instruction	64
A desire to provide moral instruction	77
A concern about environment of other schools	91
A dissatisfaction with academic instruction at other schools	74
A desire to provide a nontraditional approach to child's education	44
Child has other special needs	16
Child has a physical or mental health problem	15
Other reasons	37

 

So in 2012, 64% of  them had religious instruction as one of their rationales for homeschooling along with 77% listing moral instruction on their list of reasoning for homeschooling. Most homeschool kids are near autistic weirdos from the nutty home instruction they get and the lack of socialization. They end up getting put on play dates with kids who are exactly like them then they malfunction out in society.

All the really smart kids I knew in school were not popular.  No one hung out with them.  Now they are probably retired and wealthy, lol.

all the home schooled kids I've known, had terrific social lives with other home schooled kids. They all get together and do things.

they also get together and go to school football games, ice skating. you don't think there are any kids their own age they run around with all summer in their neighborhood?

"gosh, they don't get exposed to drugs, violence, bad sexual attitudes, anti-God sentiments, and sexual perversion up close"

sounds like a great thing, too me. It's a FREE COUNTRY. send your kids to public schools if you want to, let other parents make their own decisions on schools.

that is what I"M saying.

I'll give you a few opposite examples of "really smart" people I know.  One was Dr. Traynor who was one of the Medical directors when I was working. First impression? Who's this goober? And Lance was never one to show off- I found all this out over a period of months from my coworkers. Lance went to Stanford Medical School (that's #2 in the country behind Harvard). Really? BTW, Lance got a full free ride to Stanford Medical School. Yeah, right. Oh, and Lance got the highest score in the country on the MCAT- makes sense now. 

My co-season ticket holder friend Don that I went to HS and college with.  Never bothered to buy a book for honors freshman calculus, and graduated Summa Cum Laude in physics. Figured he could make more money, so went to Medical School instead. You would never guess in a million years just talking to them they're f**king geniuses, just normal people. 

OTOH one of Sue's friends that we met up with on a vacation in Curacao is the opposite. He has a Doctorate in Virtual Reality from MIT. Talking with him was more like- "the Earthlings did not understand my communication, I must rephrase more simply."

Where did I ever say I objected to it? Don't try to read something into it.    

Before the internet age, home schooling was a virtual impossibility. 

[DieHardBrownsFan]

I never heard of home schooling in my time.  I don't know how Cal knows all these home school kids.  And it would seem to me that not socializing at that age would have adverse affects on you when it came time to go out in the world.

That is the problem at the end. They may be mostly exposed to kids who are exactly like them and then they are shocked when not everyone drinks milk and talks bible study their freshman year of college.

[LogicIsForSquares]

I went to WVU my freshman year and a kid on our floor went from having never touched a beer or a cig to doing acid all the time and burning a year of tuition. They brought him back home and put him in Bob Jones and he got booted out.

Regardless,  it still remains that your initial remark has no basis in fact. Spoken like a true lib:

Now as it pertains to statistics. Your data appears to be from 2012.

The one below is from 2016. It is done every 4 yrs. and apparently the 2020 survey hasn't been done yet.

Every four years, the National Center for Education Statistics (NCES) conducts its National Household Education Survey (NHES). This survey provides the most comprehensive data we have on parents’ motivations for homeschooling.
