It's not a workaround. A workaround wouldn't solve the original problem: getting an education. Homeschooling does that.
"It's not a solution, it's a workaround" is used when one does not wish to allow solutions that reject the current system, in this case education by the state.
- randomtyler 15y agoThat's a solution for you, but the education system would remain broken for everyone else. That is bad for the country as a whole. Thus, home-schooling your child is a work-around to the bad state of education, but the solution for all children is to fix education.
- thetrendycyborg 15y agoYou assume that education for most must be done by the state. Yes, what I stated is a solution, and it does work around the state education problem. I admit the possibility that the state education system can be fixed, but I also admit the probability that it won't be in my lifetime. If you have a problem, and you can use a different infrastructure to avoid it at an acceptable cost, it makes sense to use it.
