[quote=Anonymous]I'm Ivy-educated and homeschool my kids. We're pretty social in the local homeschool circles and while you see all incomes, education levels & backgrounds, the religious homeschoolers are a big contingent. They also tend to be low/lower-middle income; if they had money, they'd send their kids to private school. My kid is friends with their kids so I try not to judge, but it's hard. Some of these families think they're doing an amazing job educating their kids when all they do is give their young kids a stack of Spectrum workbooks to complete on. their. own. One mom was just bragging to a group of us the other day about how her 4th grader is doing so well at school and it's literally just workbooks. These kids aren't learning critical thinking skills, but their parents probably don't care because it means their kids will just grow up thinking exactly what the parents do. It's so sad.[/quote]
