I don't know a lot about homeschooling but keep in mind that a lot of them are not diploma programs so your kid will end up having to take the GED which doesn't look as good on a resume as a high school diploma. Maybe check out schools with a correspondent course. Good luck to you.
I don’t know any homeschooler who had to take the GED. Homeschool is a legitimate school option. You don’t need a specific program at all. We randomly pulled together many different curriculums plus read books from the library as our education. This DIY method is more useful for real life than institutionalized school, from all I’ve seen.
Just follow local state laws on homeschooling and you’re good. I was homeschooled under a cover school: my parents filled out a transcript template on what I did, we ordered a diploma that the cover school signed, I took the ACT, got into a local college with a merit scholarship, graduated with honors in an engineering discipline and half way though college started my career at a well-known defense company.
Homeschooling is the best path. There’s no luck about it.
My information is based on things my homeschooled spouse has told me. State laws do make a difference as you said.
As an employer, college degrees mean almost nothing to me anymore. Their only value is that it shows someone started and finished something and didn't just fuck around for years, but I would feel the same about them if they had a good work history and were able to talk about skills they learned on the job. For example, one person might say, I worked at walmart stocking shelves. Another might say, I started at walmart stocking shelves, then they trained me as a cashier, then I worked for a month unloading trucks, then I worked in the gun department, then I was a night shift manager. It's not where someone worked, it's what they did while at work that matters.
I've literally met people with associate degrees who can't read or write, college diplomas are expensive toilet paper. High school diplomas are free toilet paper.
lol, I started in a university and realized I'd made a terrible mistake with my major. Went to community college, got my AA, and realized that I hated being in school, so just went out and got a job. Years later, I make a good living and have no student loans.
Once you find a path doing something you enjoy doing, many times there aren't any limits on how far you can travel down that path while the Internet and books exist. For example, let's say you want to be a chemist but you can't get a job anywhere as a chemist because they require you to be a jew debt slave. Start your own chemistry business. If people only realized how much time they would have if they didn't play video games, jerk off to porn, smoke weed, watch the electric jew or shitpost on anonymous message boards.
A GED won't matter at all. When your kids are say around 5, you start taking them to volunteer at food banks etc for a couple of hours a week. By the time they're 16 (usually the age that is old enough to be hired in most places) they will have 11 years of volunteer experience (some great referrals from those places too) which will pretty much land them any job they want. After they get their GED, they will have 2 years of work experience plus over a decade of volunteering. They will stand out in a great way.
Another great one to start when they are young, is put them through the red cross swimming levels 1-10, then bronze star, bronze medallion, bronze cross. They will be qualified to take life saving courses when they're 16 and can become a lifeguard. A lifeguard starting pay is $18 an hour where I am. Pretty good for a teenager. They can also become lifeguard instructors next. By the time they get that GED, they will have leadership experience. That is worth more than any high school diploma.
Nobody puts on their resume their high school education
Are there states where employers are allowed to treat a GED differently than a diploma?
