Communist Core math

I always have to laugh at the people that like to ignorantly say that home schooled kids aren't socialized. The public schools push that propaganda because they LOSE MONEY when kids are home schooled. It's not about socialization, it is about money.

I always like to respond with this question: What is the socialization curriculum at public school? Oh...there isn't one? How is that? It just happens randomly while they sit next to someone in a class room or on the play ground? Dumbest crap ever spewed by fairly intelligent people. Socialization reflects the parents.

Give me an example of a home schooled kid with socialization issues, and I can give you an unlimited # of kids in public school with socialization issues.

In my experience, home schooled kids are some of the most articulate and respectful kids I have ever met.

Also, home schoolers will only have to adjust their curriculum if it is part of a public charter AND if it does not meet the minimum requirements. We aren't adjusting anything for common core. Common core is a minimum standard. The confusion is understanding what meets that standard, so many schools just adopt the common core standards.

And as far as the math, my kids learned math with a program called Math-U-See, which has some similarities to what is in common core. I watched what my kids did, and I thought "That's cheating!" LOL. Believe it or not, they do make improvements in teaching some of this stuff. Some of us learned some old school stuff, and walked up hill to school, both ways, in the snow, and without shoes. And we were grateful!!! LOL

Isn't this the socialized school system at work.................I'm just a simple man, but the way I see it there's not much discipline in schools anymore.
