I'll clarify: I was homeschooled. My parents always had a set schedule and curriculum. Within that defined structure, I mostly taught myself.
A parent is perfectly capable of evaluating and deciding on a wide variety of curriculum even if they may not be knowledgeable enough to write a Chemistry book.
- jiggy2011 14y agoThere's a distinction between A parent and all parents. Disproportionately more parents in low income areas (where kids have worse prospects already) will have very poor education themselves (possibly struggling with basic reading skills) and also possibly additional problems with drug/alcohol abuse etc. Not the sort of people who will be skilled at choosing curriculum and enforcing study.
