[quote=Anonymous]Piggy-backing on the previous post, homeschooling can't offer a worldly view or the independence a child gains from being their own person at school and taking in the influence of a multitude of teachers who will bing a variety of knowledge to your child. Furthermore, elementary school is a lot more than finger-painting. Teachers are highly trained to teach valuable literacy, comprehension and analytical skills. To any parent who can blow off my four years of undergraduate work in Education and two years of graduate work in Education and on-going yearly professional development, you are truly underestimating what it takes to successfully "school" a child. And one more thing, if you thing having routines, bells, waiting turns and learning how to respect an adult and follow classroom rules is a waste of time, good luck to your child when they have to go out in the real world on their own for the first time![/quote]
