To put it simply, yes. Home education is wrong.
We all know that education is compulsory, but going to school isn't, that is why so many careless and lazy parents decide to home educate their unfortunate children.
Why might a parent decide to home educate you ask? Surely it's less hassle to just send him or her to school and get them off your hands for the day? No it isn't and before I explain why, lets take a look at some of the reasons a parent may choose to home educate.
- Lazyness. Yes unfortunately lazyness runs through society and the simple fact of the matter is that many parents just cannot be bothered to wake up and send their child to school, they would rather just forget about it all.
- Single parents. In most cases it is the single mother mother who chooses to home educate. As we all know single mothers were the type of people who had a bad childhood and so feel the need to 'get revenge' and so they do this by home educating their child (ie: not educating them at all.) There has actually been a lot of research into this.
- Attention Seeking. Like lazyness, attention seeking unfortunately runs throught society. Some people feel the need to home educate - just to be different.
Everything associated with home education is negative. You can not gain a quality education from home, you must go to school. Parents must realise this. There are several campaigns running that are anti home education.
The bottom line is, children need quality education as they are the next generation. There is no way a child can get a decent education from learning at home.
The statistics show;
-That 1 in 3 children who were home educated will earn less than 22,000 per year
-1 in 3 parents who decide to home educate their children had a troubled childhood.
-87.3% of children who were home educated wish they had gone to school
-Over 70% of children who are being home educated weren't given the choice.
