Geeee. I wonder why? Could it be related to the niggers? The low standards? The Liberal/Gender insanity brainwashing? No.. I could not possibly be any of those things....

From the post:

>Whether called homeschooling or DIY education, family-directed learning has been growing in popularity for years in the U.S. alongside disappointment in the rigidity, politicization, and flat-out poor results of traditional public schools. That growth was supercharged during the COVID-19 pandemic when extended closures and bumbled remote learning drove many families to experiment with teaching their own kids. The big question was whether the end of public health controls would also curtail interest in homeschooling. We know now that it didn't. Americans' taste for DIY education is on the rise.

A very common occurrence that I hear from people who homeschool their kids is that the actual school work amounts to 2-3 hours per day, and the rest of the time is spent developing actual life skills. I know of a couple of families who went all in and their kids were done high school by the time they were 10-12 years old, but those are the ones who didn't have an easy time getting along with every day people because they were terribly insulated from human interactions. The ones who only do 2-3 hours of school work per day seem like the best off because they meet up with other home schooled kids and play with them, so they basically grow up like how we used to, just some school and the rest is life lessons, but they have way more time to do things like learn how to build or start a trade from a much earlier age.

With how pathetic the modern "Public school" system has gotten you can easily teach what they teach in a WEEK in a couple of hours in a few days. You are taking out the toil and allowing for more room for self-learning/curiosity and hobbies. As you said, also time to socialize with other homeschool kids as well.

Hell, when I was in public school way back it was a fucking joke and that was decades ago. I can only imagine how bad it is now. I spent nearly zero effort and got "good enough" grades (I really didn't give a damn and thought it was stupid, I spent most of my time self-learning, reading, etc). To be able to graduate with the amount of effort I put in should have been impossible.

I did the same. The school systems were undergoing a transformation to dumb everyone down, and it worked on most. If I hated a teacher, I would do nothing in class, only do projects if they counted for a good chunk of the grade, and just do well on exams. If I liked the teacher, I would speak in class, get the teachers talking and going off on tangents so often that they would run out of time and not be able to assign us homework because they didn't get to finish the lesson. If I REALLY liked the teacher (and this was only 5 of them in total that accepted this deal) I would tell them that I didn't want to do the work, and they probably didn't want to grade the work either, so made them a deal: Give me my grade based 100% on the final exam and I'll accept it whatever it was. That worked out nice for me.

My family moved around a lot (from K-12 I was in 8 different schools, the longest was 4 years in any one place) I got to see a bunch of different ways of doing thins. Nothing was more infuriating than going to a new school, a grade higher and then being given work that I did 1-3 years before then. Having to waste my time because that area was raising retards and more advanced in the liberal dumbing down of kids. Sometimes I wish I could have been homeschooled, but at least I have some close friends that have been in my life for almost 40 years now.

My wife has some similar stories about moving to a new place where the schools were just complete trash. Like, sleep through the classes and get an A and where she came from you would be lucky to get a B- busting your ass every single day no matter how hard you tried.
