Hahah yea sounds crazy when you say it out loud. I get the question a lot from my parents “why are you so adement about homeschooling?”
Where do you start explaining?
Discussion
I normally start by explaining how I don’t believe outsourcing the raising of our children to the state is natural if you look at history and talk about how there isn’t anyone better to prepare them than my wife and I.
The normal rebuttal is time and money and then I talk about how we view that time with our children as investments in their future.
That’s a nice way to explain it. People are very convinced the kids learn social skills. While in the same conversation they’ll mention 22 year old kids don’t even dare to have a phone call.
Unfortunately homeschooling is illegal here so we would need to move countries before they grow up.
