It is said that about 18,000 Chinese children are educated at home. With more parents and education teachers didn’t like the school teaching, do you support home schooling for your child?

Bailey (US)

My son has been home schooled for the past four years. He was going to public school but was bullied and one day didn’t want to go. That became a problem but home schooling came into my mind. Experience showed that home schooling can be just as good if all learning areas are covered. I teach my son exactly the same as a school would. My son likes it very much.

Shari (Australia)

Different kinds of education fit different families. For some, home schooling is the answer. Peer pressure and competition are all part of a typical school day. This can be a problem for girls.

Most home schooled students have the choice to study and learn what they want, when they want, for as long as they want. Home schooled children can finish in a few hours what takes a typical classroom a week or more to cover. 

Fernolz (UK)

Learning outside a school environment can save a lot of time for mom or dad. But home school needs them to stay with their children. And I think the biggest disadvantage is a lack of interaction with others.
