this is a very interesting debate and i'm sure there's thousands of people here on Steemit, all homeschooling with a thousand different ideas on what home schooling should consist of. My kids go to school but i'm fascinated with the many ways my friends homeschool their kids. i have one friend who taught none of her four children anything unless they specificaly asked to be taught. They all decided at sixteen to go to college and find out about formal education for themselves. Only one of them found it too challenging to finish.
