RE: A Dash of Sult N Papper 08/17/20> Thoughts and advice on schools starting back for the 2020- 2021 school year.

If the system has worked well enough, then the populous should be just dumb enough to ignore the evidence and contradictions right in front of them and get behind a ban on homeschooling when the media starts reporting how dangerous it is and how it's failing children. Sorry, I just went all cynical there...

It is kind of funny how in order to push through one goal, they inadvertently undermine another goal.

Sort:  

That populous in general is dumb enough and it most likely won't be long before before before the media gets behind a ban homeschooling. Right now though their orders are to get us thru this sham pandemic / election cycle with all eyes focused on those.

Once the numbers are compiled on how many children this year alone have been opt out of the government education system it will surface on the radar screen and the attacks will begin. Up until now the home school folks never represented a big problem because in the majority of two parent households both parents worked outside the home and couldn't possibly home school.

This pandemic has changed that too, more companies are realizing that they don't need massive office space and people in those cubicles to get the work done. More people working their jobs from home means school no longer has to serve as "child care" with education provided. Parents can do both now and do it very well.

I look for late '21 and '22 for the home school attacks to ramp up across the media and legislation banning home school to be introduced.

I hope I'm wrong on those predictions of course.

Thanks for taking the time to read and comment, both are very much appreciated.
