In some countries, there has been an increase in the number of parents who educate their children themselves at home instead of sending them to school. Do you think the advantages of this overweight the disadvantages?

In contrast

to the number of children who attend a traditional

school

, there is an increasing count of children being schooled at

home

by their parents. Despite that

this

offers some benefits, there seems to be more drawbacks of being taught at

home

by the

child

's parents rather than at

school

, and I agree. Analysing the benefit of parental care when taught at

home

, and the lack of socialising as drawback of not attending a formal

school

, will establish the idea.

To begin

with, children who are educated at

home

are usually well-supervised by their parents.

For example

, a recent study concluded that 80 percent of homeschooled children, are better behaved in public as compared only 50 percent of students from conventional

school

, which are usually too active outside their homes.

This

is because children who learn at

home

are trained more on attitude and morals by

their

Suggestion

Their

parents, which makes them to apply themselves with good manners anywhere they find themselves. Overall, the main benefit of schooling at

home

would perhaps be to gain good character through parental guidance.

On the other hand

, there is a significant disadvantage of being gaining education solely at

home

, which is evident in the minor's social life.

For instance

, most children make more friends at

school

, which the socialize with for an extended period of time than having only friends in their neighbourhood. Because of

this

,

such

child

will have exposure to more aspects of life than if

such

child

schooled at

home

. Evidently, children who go to

school

will undoubtedly learn more about adapting in the society as a whole better than a stereotypical approach of

home

schooling. In conclusion,

although

there is an argument that when a

child

is educated by their parents at

home

, they tend to be well-behaved in the public, the drawback of not having to socialise and make more friends by going to

school

to learn by far outweighs

such

minor benefit because

such

child

will be better prepared generally for the future. It seems advisable that parents should encourage their children to attend

school

outside their

home

.
