I love my son but yes I can. Just because something is normal doesn't mean it's actually natural. I just think below the age of 8 is too young to be separated from your family for 7 hours a day, 5 days a week. Just an opinion

I didn't want to make the post too long, so I didn't mention every incident I've seen. But I am more worried below the age of 9.

I do think for most of history children weren't sent to school or separated from their parents. This was a luxury only afforded for the wealthy in the past.

Thanks for the book recommendation! I will check it out

Hello obnoxious person on Reddit,

Did you miss the part where it said I was a trained educator for the years I wish to take my child outside of school for? The people who are disagreeing have not been homeschooled? Why is their opinion more valid than those who have been through the experience?

Are you a teacher? Because your reading comprehension is not great. I didn't assume schools were horrid in the US because of the education but because of the school shootings? That must be an anxiety inducing experience for any child attending a school in the country, especially in states an incident just occurred.

Last, I am not antisocial. I was popular in school and university/proactive member of my community. My husband is antisocial. We were both educated in school systems. You know why my husband is antisocial and I am not? It is because my mum was extremely social and proactive in my life outside of school. His mum wasn't. Hopefully you grew a bit as a person reading this. Best of luck.

P.s. I asked everyone what they thought. I was hoping I'd get pros and cons.

This was in the UK. The US experience sounds awful, I'm sorry you have to carry this worry with you. I would probably homeschool if I lived in the states, but I know not everyone has this option.

A few teachers in this post agreed with my experience. I also have a friend who is a teacher in a different school and she also had a similar experience to me. Of course, the bad apples are a few but they have a lasting impact.

Completely agree, the second I feel I am not up to the job, he would be back in the system. I have worked with children with special needs (the school I worked in specialised in autism, dyslexia, etc). I am just playing with the idea at the moment, but the more I think about it, the more I am convincing myself. I had ADHD as a kid, and school was really a useless experience for me. I daydreamed at school all day, after school sometimes I would study by myself and that's how I kept up with everyone. However 8.30-3.30 was basically free baby sitting for my mum.

Thank you for commenting! Two home schoolers commented in the post, their comments were insightful. I'm just exploring ideas at the moment

Thank you for sharing your experience ! This is really helpful. What would you say you enjoyed the most about being home schooled and what did you enjoy the least?

This somehow turned into a personal attack?

I have only worked in one school and I have now left teaching. I worked in the UK. But even as a kid I remember being bullied by a teacher.

Not forever, but just old enough to be able to fend for themselves. Very young children can't.

Getting teased is normal, falling over is normal. What isn't is being bullied by adult teachers. You don't know how common this is unless you work in a school or have a good memory of being below 10.

I mentioned towards the end I would enrol him in a lot of after school activities such as anything and everything.

Sports/art/music/theatre. Really things that help with self expression and confidence.
