Pros and Cons of Homeschooling


Question Posted Saturday June 9 2007, 6:55 pm

The public schools where I live are terrible.

This is why I want to be homeschooled:
- I don`t think there was one week that I didn`t come home crying because of a time my "friends" stabbed me in the back or someone who I don`t even know had been mean to me.
- I never got enough sleep, so I was constantly sick. (I missed about 20 something days of school)
- The "teachers" honestly can`t teach. The only way I passed math was with a tutor.
- Not safe. They send us to school with tornado warnings & hurricanes. There were about eight times where we missed two hours of class due to sitting in the hallways being told to shut up, since they were stupid enough to send us to school with a tornado warning or a hurricane.

Additional info, added Saturday June 9 2007, 9:57 pm:
- The teachers also cuss, which isn`t exactly very professional.

Sorry, I accidently submitted it without the actual question.
What are some of the Pros and Cons if I decide to be homeschooled?

& "socializing" isn`t a problem for me. most of my close friends live in my neighborhood & i`m gonna join some sport teams or something that alot of my friends are on.

I'm homeschooled. I love it. I had similar problems with all of my school choices.

If you still socialize plenty, then that takes care of that--

Since I've started homeschooling my grades have come up, my health has gotten better-- i get more sleep, i have time to eat healthier-- and i generally feel like i've learned more.

Cons?
If you get behind too far, it takes alot of motivation to catch up-- and it's easy to fall behind.
Socializing's a big thing.


And, seeing as you already have a tutor, if there was anything that you didn't know, you could just go to them or one of your parents if you needed help.

I hope that helps?
In my opinion, atleast, homeschooling's a great option.

Homeschool is graet,but you will miss your friends or some of you classmate. I saw stay in school you are not going for anyone elese if you have friends who are stabbing you in the back they are not you friends. Find good friends and I promise you will be glad you stay in school. Do your work and don't pay ttention to anyone who don't want to be frien with you.
