An easy yes. Teachers go to school to learn how best to educate. Parents have no such training. Teachers are professionals who went into the profession for the purpose of teaching children. Parents have done no such thing and may not be qualified to educate any child. Abandoning public education because you want to teach your child is irresponsible.

Although I am a public school person, I share the belief that homeschooling is better. First, there is no need for timetables. You set your own way, and you have more free time because there is no "homework". Second, you can learn whatever you want. In public school we have to go through 4 years of grueling and boring English. At home, there is no requirement. Last, homeschooling means you teach yourself (or parents teach you) in the style that you choose. There’s no possibility for dumb teachers who give you tests but don’t teach the material.

Yes, it is. Public schools are better than homeschooling because at public schools the kids have the opportunity to meet great people. But if they go to homeschooling then they won’t be able to meet new people and they would be with the same people every day. Plus the teachers at public schools know how to grade papers and they went to school for all of that.

Public schools are more relevant to future life. Children grow up and have to get jobs and careers. Public schools teach children how to handle the schedules of work. Public schools require you to be at the school for a certain time, just like workplaces. That’s going to be a rough period of adjustment when someone who’s used to sleeping whenever and however long they want suddenly has to be up at 7:00 and at the office by 9:00 every morning.
Public schools also teach students what it’s like to be working for a full day. Suddenly having to do an eight hour work day will be rough for someone who’s used to doing one or two hours of work before taking a break.
Public schools also force you to be around many different people and personality types. I imagine that since homeschooling relies on clubs and voluntary activities for socialization, that means if you can’t get along with someone, you just move to a different club or activity instead of learning how to tolerate people you don’t like. Once again, when you get into a workplace, you’ll have to know how to work productively with people you can’t stand. Quitting a job because you can’t get along with a co-worker is not a valid solution.
Tom (Switzerland)
Even though you have more freedom in homeschooling, public schools give students different learning. I would enjoy being homeschooled for maybe a year or two. But after that, I would want to go back to public schools. In public schools, you can meet so many kinds of people and that gets you more comfortable in places other than home. Also, in public schools, students develop better organizational skills and a stronger sense of responsibility.

Is the Public School Better Than Homeschooling? Nowadays, many parents choose homeschooling as a new way to teach their children rather than send them to public schools. Advocates think homeschooling offers a flexible timetable and curriculum plus a suitable learning style for kids. Opponents argue public schools not only teach children knowledge through qualified teachers but also guide them to their future career with discipline learned from tight schedule and fixed working hours. Besides, at school, kids are more likely to meet and learn to get along with people of different personalities. Finally, in public schools, students develop better organizational skills and a stronger sense of responsibility. Once dubbed as the remedial teaching aimed at kids with troublesome problems, homeschooling now has become a new fad especially among parents with much leisure time. Dissatisfied with the current education system, be it the escalating class size and dwindling teachers responsible for each class, or the rampant problems inside classrooms, or the rigid curriculum, parents insist that their children learn better in a more loving and natural environment. Most importantly, with the full focus on their children which rarely happens in schools, parents can easily adjust what, when and where to teach to meet children’s own learning needs. However, critics of homeschooling argue that living in a smaller circle with fewer peers to interact with, the homeschooled children may miss out a chance to pick social skills. Still others doubt the qualification of the teaching parents since the majority of them are not competent educators of all subjects. In my opinion, schools should take measures to draw these disgruntled parents back. Or at least, they should offer part-time activities to help those who insist on homeschooling. After all, for the sake of the benefits of our children, we should join together to provide whatever is necessary for their education.
