    Explanation & Answer

    This is your answer buddy. I really wish I had more time for research. I have had to rush through the thing and work to the best of my abilities. Feel free to ask for changes.










    Parents are dissatisfied with public education
    Not possible for everyone to afford private
    schooling or even private tutors
    Homeschooling is witnessing a new-found
    acceptance
    No longer a peripheral and rare concept
    Becoming an increasingly legitimate education
    option

    Thesis: homeschooling is good because it can let
    a parent choose curriculum, include religion and
    values, promote community group involvement
    and present the student with an opportunity for
    individualization.









    85000 students were homeschooled in 1999
    2003, the number had grown to 1.1 million
    2007, the number was 1.5 million
    Today -2.3 million home-educated students
    in the United States (NCES. Issue Brief. 2008)
    George Washington, Theodore Roosevelt
    ,Abraham Lincoln , Thomas Edison, and
    Albert Einstein were homeschooled (Clark,
    C.S. 1994)









    Helps the parents in
    monitoring their child's
    learning as well as overall
    development
    Helps in positive social
    opportunities for children
    and prevents them from
    being stigmatized
    Homeschooling can help
    in achieving academic
    success irrespective of
    financial condition,
    religion, race or ethnicity
    Homeschooling helps the
    parents to choose a
    curriculum





    Homeschooled
    children are more
    tolerant
    They have more
    secure personalities





    Drugs, peer pressure and overall negative
    environment
    Homeschooled adults
    ◦ Participate more in local community service
    ◦ Vote and attend public meetings
    ◦ Internalize the values and beliefs of their parents at
    a very high rate as adults (ray, B.D. 2016)
