There are some awful schools out there.
That said, people who tend to push for homeschooling are among the lesser educated. They’re the kind of people who would represent themselves in court…if you catch my drift.
Their hearts might be in the right place, but you gotta know what you don’t know. And pushing for better schools and better standards is better than trying to teach shyt you don’t have any goddamn business teaching.
It's surprisingly easy to do. I was homeschooled for a single year when Atlanta public schools lost its accreditation due to cheating by the teachers in a scandal. My parents were horrified that I'd never be accepted into a college if I continued attending.
From what I recall, the textbooks basically taught me everything I needed to know during that homeschool year. In my parents' case, they just ordered the same teachers edition that teachers normally buy and that addition had lesson plans, solutions, and a common sticking points in it.
The real point of the parent in the interaction from what I recall was just to make sure the student actually studies during that time and stays on top of tasks and quizzes from the book. Which is much easier without the distraction of other students or nonsense coursework like art or music or PE.
Assuming you have a well-adjusted neurnormative child, it should be straightforward. The only parents I could see struggling, are those with mentally disabled kids with ADHD or dyslexia or anxiety.. also an issue for parents who don't have the time to review their kids progress. But for everybody else it's peachy.
