There is an increasing trend that many parents tend to educate their children at home rather than send them to school. Do you think the advantages of this trend outweigh its disadvantages?

Instead

of sending

children

to traditional schools, homeschooling tends to be a more popular option among parents.

This

modern trend brings benefits and causes problems to the

education

system and personal well-being as well. From my perspective, it has more disadvantages than advantages for individuals and society. First off, homeschooling will diminish

children

’s social development, since

children

are confined at home most of the time

hence

they would miss out on opportunities to interact with peers or cultivate relationships with teachers

because they do not attend school physically. Even worse is that

children

are unable to fit into a wider society in the future.

Additionally

, the curriculum may not be customized for students on different academic levels since most parents usually are not equipped with comprehensive and professional

education

backgrounds so

education

quality cannot be ensured.

Accordingly

, as they are not all-round talent, if their teaching method is not accepted or has effective impacts on their

children

,

this

will pose some new challenges to the guardians, mentally and physically.

Finally

, most families lack teaching facilities and space, which can be provided commonly in traditional schools, but if purchasing them individually, usually it’s unaffordable and difficult to maintain. It is true that the upside of homeschooling should not be neglected.

in school, which can stimulate their potential to study.

Furthermore

, studying at home will not cause pressure on being bullied or social anxiety in school, the learning atmosphere will be purer. For parents, they can offer sufficient companionship to their

system and schools,

will reduce their financial pressure and alleviate the disparity of educational resources.

However

, the advantage cannot trade off its disadvantages. Since it is still illegal in most parts of the world, governments and authorities should establish a sound

education

system with supervision. When weighing in pros and cons, I still reaffirm my view that the demerits outnumber its demerits.

This

is primarily because the mode is still unmatured and its benefits cannot outweigh its disadvantages.
