My sister has been a firm believer in home schooling and I guess the situation she has my niece in right now is not really home schooling since it's done at a daycare facility with a single person. It's almost like a private tutor but with someone other than the parent. She has convinced my brother to do the same with my other niece and pulled her out of public school. I am still not convinced that was the best thing to do but she has seemed to show more interest in learning and going to "school" since the change.
I would also guess that the lack of socializing or interaction with other children may be a problem later down the line? Would those who are home schooled still be able to apply for scholorships like those in public schools? Guess I'm just trying to get some feedback from those who may have personal experience so that I can be at ease over the education of my nieces. I would hate for them to miss out on opportunities they may get through public school.
Opinions?
