Homeschooled kids score way better on standardized tests than those who had public education. Public schools are instructed by people with graduate degrees in education, homeschool is instruced by a former Hooters waitress that got knocked up by accident.

They wear stockings underneath the shorts at Hooters. She made decent money while not having to whore herself out on OF or strip.

I have a mathematical explanation why this is true.
Stastistically, people are retarded. Most parents don't care about their children, so the only education they get is school, and since they usually lack motivation, it will be lackluster.
Then you have an entire class averaged out by unmotivated retards. This forces the teacher to even out the learning program, which means he can teach less and teach worse.

A homeschooled kid does not share the class with brainlets, which means this part of the statistics falls off.
Second part is, that since the kid is homeschooled, it implies that his parents actually try to teach him. Which separates him already from the ones where the parents don't teach.
This raises the bar.

not sure about where you are but most states have pretty strict standards for homeschooling which require specific curriculum and specific testing. You can't just teach them flat earth and alchemy and pig latin, that's quite literally unlawful negligence. An underperforming homeschool student sticks out a lot more on county statistics than a rowhouse student in uniform at an already-underperforming public school would.

Sure, but think about how socially weird homeschool kids are. Instead of being around adult family members and patterning their behaviors on them, they should go off to a building with 1500 other kids who are minimally supervised by disinterested adults. Now that's how you develop social skills needed for success in life!

>> No.15278085

For the children, homeschooling is a much more efficient use of their time. Travel time to and from school, changing classes, roll calls, getting settled down, the teacher going slow to keep at the speed of the least intelligent kids, instruction stopping due to behavioral issues, the teacher stopping to assist one student who just doesn't understand something repeated multiple times, etc.
For the homeschool kid, if they don't understand something, the parent can take extra time to help them truly understand it, which gives them a base to build upon for further knowledge. And for things the kid understands quickly, the parent can move on to the next lesson instead of requiring a bunch of busy work that in public school would be required for "objectivity". A reasonably intelligent kid can finish each grade level in half a school year if allowed.
For society, homeschooling is very inefficient because if everyone did it, it would increase the number of adults who are involved in teaching the nation's children by an order of magnitude. All of those workers who could be increasing GDP by having jobs outside of the home, would instead be at home teaching children. Not much is more important in western society than maximizing GDP.

What are you talking about? By definition homeschool has to be done by someone staying at home, not a poor wagie that has to work every day just to put food on the table.

Also, one teacher with 30 students for an hour per day compared to one teacher with 1-3 students for 8 hours every day. It's a lot easier to tailor the education to their individual needs and capabilities.

Passing a government test is no measure, either. That's midwit thinking at best. Passing a test just proves you can pass a test. I could have passed everything but the math portion of a college level probably in the 4th grade.

Schools aren't designed for development of intelligence or acquiring of knowledge. They are designed for discipline, workforce and grading of children for determining their value. No public school will prioritize psychological health and intellectual development of a child over the efficiency of processing them for the specific state of the society and labour market at the particular time.

This is a good point. The West is penny wise, pound foolish, and the rest of the world is following suit.

What's the point of
>breaking up the family unit, have both parents slave away in garbage jobs that wear them out physically and mentally
>leaving them unable to pick up the inevitable slack that poorly budgeted public schools with over 2 dozen kids a class will leave in their children's education
>along with the assortment of emotional and psychological problems caused by exposure to the dysgenic proles of the unfortunate lower classes who have no alternative and no interest anyway
>creating a generation of broken, uneducated and intellectually crippled people who will further replicate their dysfuntion

in the long run, HOW can all of this damage not negate, or even go past any short-term, essentially virtual benefit of raising the GDP?

The most important thing for children to become highly intelligent is for them to continuously interact in a 1:1 basis with intelligent, mature adults who treat them with respect while guiding their development. While homeschooling doesn't always mean you're 1:1 with an intelligent, mature adult, neither does government schooling. The difference is that the child at least gets 1:1 time with an average adult instead of fighting for attention with 20-30 or even up to 40 other kids.

The reality is that most hard subjects aren't that hard. Calculus is braindead easy. So is chemistry and even organic chemistry at an introductory level. Language skills and in general liberal arts do require some critical thinking to really engage with, and the kind of problem solving required in engineering and masters/PhD level sciences is really very difficult for most people. But there's zero excuse for a child to get through high school and not understand at least basic differentiation and integration. It happens because teachers who barely understand calculus themselves are just throwing quotes at bored children and wondering why the test scores are so low.

In an ideal universe, your child should be going to college with an extremely solid grasp of all the basic sciences, mathematics, and english analysis so that when he's actually in college what he's learning is problem solving and analysis, not how to do a double integral.

Best home schooling is through associations where groups of home schooled children regularly meet for lessons from other parents and private tutors. They get the social interaction and exposure to different teaching materials and methods. The parents learn from this too. It pools resources and strengthen community ties.

Home school families who meet state educational requirements should receive tax rebates equal to which they would have paid to send their children to state schools. Since this would likely collapse the entire state school system within a single generation ( as many, if not most, white and Asian parents would immediately opt for home schooling ) its very unlikely to happen.

No you're right and science backs it up. There's extensive evidence that basically all traditional stereotypes which actually exist (and aren't just made up by victim groups as a cause of oppression) are actually based on empirically provable factual statements about reality, and tend to be true.

Most people (specifically, Americans) believe stereotypes are false because they were told in school that stereotypes are false. In fact, if you ask many American zoomers/millenials what a stereotype is, the definition they give you is basically "A harmful false statement about a group of people" which is not correct. A stereotype is an easily reproducible model of something, which is why it can refer both to people and, specifically, the art style in which cast plates are used to reproduce the same image repeatedly. That image can be true or false, and in general it tends to model the population.

So, blacks are on average more violent and less intelligent than whites. Individual blacks may not be, but as a whole they are. So, the stereotypical image of a black man is an unusually violent and stupid individual.
