Homeschool debate

I found an interesting website: debate.org


Check out the Homeschooling page here.

The page lists pro's and con's to homeschooling and then allows there "members" to comment or even "challenge to a debate" on a comment.

I spent some time today checking it out.  Here's one of my favorite quotes:

Comment: State funded public schools are the only way to really ensure that required curriculum is actually being taught to students and that no ideological spin is being put on it.


I'm half tempted to challenge Jingram994 to a debate.

I am inclined to agree with the argument. I don't agree with the assumption that a "required" curriculum is desirable or necessary.

I agree with you. I don't want the government to be requiring certain topics be taught in certain ways.
