Parents always want to give the best for their children. Best clothes, best toys and most especially the best education one can offer. When it comes to education, some parents search for the most prestigious private school which offers the best educational system in town, although this may prove to be pretty expensive. But there are also parents who do not want to leave their children in the care of other people and want to be part of their children’s education. Some parents with liberal minds want their children to have a broader perspective on education. They do not want their children to be contained within rigid and set standards of education that usually happens when one is attending a school. Other parents do not approve of their children to be attending schools because of crowded classrooms and lack of individualized attention.
There are a lot of advantages that draw these parents to prefer home school programs than attending school. Children who are under a homeschool curriculum do not have to strictly abide with school hours and could start with the lessons at a time that is preferable for your child. No learning will be absorbed if the child’s mind is not ready nor conditioned to learn. So in school it is pretty useless to teach students who are not likely fully alert to learn. Also home school programs provide the chance for lessons to be adjusted as the parent or tutor see fit. Supposing that the child is already adept at Math, will you still spend hours teaching him something he is already good at? You could have used the hours to teach him those subjects he finds difficulty in like Science, History etc. Homeschooling also provides family the quality time they need for vacation trips or just plain family bonding time. Also you can give your children an interactive and individualized learning which you can’t find in school. Examples are educational trips. You do not have to be hindered by permission letters or whatever necessary steps needed for the school to allow you those field trips. It also provides more opportunity for the children to explore and socialize without restrictions. They do not have to limit their socialization to kids there age. They can also learn a variety of things from tours to libraries, museums and other historical sites all in your own time.
It is no wonder why a lot of families nowadays prefer homeschooling than letting their children enroll to a public or private school. Furthermore, parents need not worry about kids bullying their children or their kids being troubled by peer pressures. These would only affect and hinder their children’s studies. And parents also would no longer have to worry whether the school that their kids are attending is of low academic standards for they personally take care of that.

How much of a child’s education should be done with online homeschooling? Obviously the amount of time spent teaching kids online has grown drastically in the last 20 years. I’m curious how much of your time is spent on the computer vs. more traditional methods?
