@GPM and @Kak are really fired up today... rants galore. Tell us how you really feel boys, don't hold back!
On a more serious note...
@Kak I am not sure what ticked you off on home schooling vs private. But I'll put it out there that for my kid, it's all private schooling. We know the owner of our chain daycare here (she is a very successful entrepreneur elevating daycare to a new level) and are applying for another private school soon (age wise it's time for the next level up). It's harder to get in than Harward! And it's not focused on getting your kid to be the most academically successful person to get into some fancy university later. It is focused on letting the kid develop into excellence in whatever is their thing - arts or math, no difference to me.
Most parents are influential people (business people, doctors etc.). Some became my friends already. One friend is a founder of Vega (Vega | Plant-based Nutrition), another is the largest whole sale LED lights distributor in Canada etc. I am always confused when successful people like you post the way you do about "home schooling". It feels kind of backwards to me. You have the means to go private school, why not? I could maybe understand it if you were poor and didn't have options.
Additionally, your post implies that nurture is more important than nature. Whereas I don't know that for a fact and think my kid will become whatever the DNA + my influence + society influence will determine. I wasn't home schooled. And didn't even go to any private schools either. I'd like to think we are smart enough to carve our own path. Regardless of what you do, your son will be his own man.
Lastly, I do believe socialization for a kiddo is important. Interacting with other kids and people is human nature. We are social animals. Why do you insist of depriving your son of this?
Let me turn this around on you - if you are so unhappy with the schooling that's available to you where you live, is this an opportunity to create something? Could you take your passionate disdain for current system as a fuel to create something new and great? Make it into a business?
Lol! I was talking about private school… Government school has never even been the slightest consideration.
Seeing some straw that I’m not going to leave alone… I’ll send my actual rebuttal to this in a bit.
