Ultimately our children don’t belong to us… but they certainly don’t belong to the government or state
I think home schools are illegal in Western Europe
I’m sorry. I feel that you are being a bit cynical.
If I consciously expose my child to foreign cultures and varied perspectives, he won’t be a product of the government even if he is publicly schooled
Anyway, I cannot imagine spending 24/7 with my children. I will go mad from the lack of outside stimulus haha
And you are being naive
Singapore has a functional public school system
USA does not especially in urban areas
Ah!
I can’t comment on things that I don’t know much about.
What keeps you going in this flawed system then?
I appreciate your commentary as long as they are relevant
Calling me a cynic is not an argument
Also you seem to approve of western Europe making home schools illegal because the child belongs to the state and not the parent
I’m sorry if my words rubbed you the wrong way. I will do better next time
no worries, I probably overreacted...
What keeps you going in this flawed system then? I don't have a good answer to this question
I reckon it’s because homeschooling — like Bitcoin — indicates a desire of the individual to take charge of his own destiny. That’s why the strong feelings in approval of it.
I think you mentioned a golden rule of parenting. We may invest our heart and soul but ultimately our children don’t belong to us, so their success or failure can only be partially attributed to our efforts. They are their own person.
Do you have kids, Sir?
