We started my son into an online school for kindergarten, mostly because it offers flexibility for our family, higher academic standards, and allows us to work with his behavior in a safe environment. He's not violent or anything, just high energy, and we're concerned that in a standard classroom environment it will be too restrictive and lead to him acting out. We understand he still needs to learn social skills, but we can work on that in accordance with our ideals and in times and places of our choosing.

When I see the number of people who interact with this channel, I feel disappointed with the type of parents who raise children today. They are wasting a treasure that was given to them for free.

Safety? I'm a full blown 2A supporter, the repeal the NFA kind, and metal detectors, clear points of entry and to some extent even armed staff, maybe something like only licensed teachers and administrators are a must with also dedicated security. But in reality, most of these shooters are commonly bullied, ostracized, etc. Solve those problems and other mental health issues and we'd have less issues with safety for both bullying and gun stuff. Even with the second part of my statement I'd still want the first one implemented, there will always be crazy and evil people out there, and all of them were children at some point.

Edication standards. I didn't really like your examples as non christian teachings or no black history are weak points. When your zipcode dictates your school, you're stuck, first remove that and let anyone go to good schools. Then you return prestige to being a teacher, make it a well paid and desireable profession, schools should be competing for the top students at universities, not getting the scraps that couldn't make it (I know that this doesn't apply to all teachers). Make sure teachers stop pushing agendas, from any side, and teach how to exercise thinking and not just repeat what teacher says to get good grades. I know of someone who had the unfortunate experience of having to go to a inner city school from a bad area and the stories are crazy, from how teachers and admin not caring, to kids just not being punished for horroble behaviors.

Stop hiding information from parents unless you constantly see the kid coming to school with bruises. Sensitive topics have to be opt in, not opt out, this includes religion, sex ed beyond the basics of how reproduction works (which I believe shouldn't even be taught at schools anyways) and even advanced math, let it be for kids interested in it, the majority of people won't need anything beyond basic algebra.

I'm not a parent, but planning to be soon, so I've been trying to pay as much attention as I can and these are some of the few concerns, unfortunately we won't be able to homeschool, so I have to look a lot into it once it's time.

Your approach is all wrong. Public school purists are some of the most unmimaginative people I've ever met in my life. Homeschooling is not ONE THING. It is a very rich spectrum of different combinations of home instruction, tutoring, partnering among families, and increasingly things like microschooling, where teachers unchained from the mind-numbingly stupid government school blueprint are much, MUCH freer to show their teaching chops. And, last but not least, already, in places like supposedly left-leaning Seattle, there are partnerships between public schools and homeschooling groups to offer a flexible mixture of services that affords immensely improved options to parents and students. One thing is for certain. Anyone who shows zero interest in innovation and experimentation and expanding choices is just an ideologue or union shill, neither of which give a CR***P about education, but instead, want to shoehorn the entire educational system to into some narrow fascist paradigm that fits a stale political story they are telling themselves.

Believe me if I didn't have to work, I would home school my kid. When the education system is completely disconnected from the authority of the parents, that's when homeschooling becomes very appealing. I want to know everything about what's being taught to my kid. And I want to be able opt my kid out of anything that in contrary to our values. That means permission slips without consequences when parents say no.

Remember folks, homeschooling is not unschooling.
Unschooling is just a new word for passive parents to feel good about themselves.

Well for me, it was the school employees giving me trauma, doing nothing about bullying, good ol ableism, and not teaching me anything (except in math, I did learn stuff there. Funnily enough my math teachers were some of the best teachers I've had)

so yknow, I don't do public school anymore! I do an online school thing so I'm still getting an actual education (aka I'm learning real things (well not really, only learning things in history class and math, other subjects are saying things I already know) and I have an actual record of my schooling) though.

We plan to homeschool just for the sake of not letting our children be brainwashed by the school district!
