Homeschool is a system of schooling which gives the child a lot of space and freedom. The child can get more comfort because he doesn’t have to go to an alien place and feel strange and uncomfotable . If he wants some water to drink, he can go to kitchen and get it from his mother. He will have a mentality that he is in a protected zone and that nobody can harm him. If they need more explanation for learning certain things, they have the opportunity to get it. This makes the child an introvert and a dreamer without many friends. As a result child will gradually become a loner and have problems in socializing with people.

 

A child with homeschooling has very little interaction with the outside world. Such a child would have great difficulties when he tries to gel with the outer world. For complete development a child should be aware of the positive and negative aspects of the world. This wisdom would help child face challenges later on in the life. But homeschooling hinders in the normal development of child.

 

Homeschooling is very time consuming. One of the child’s parents should stay at home. It is not easy to teach a kid right from the age three to fifteen. Parents must be very much organized and determined to make him/her a good student. They should keep track of his/her test results and should give h opportunities to show his/her extracurricular activities. All these activities are very time consuming and nowadays, people have no time to finish even their own work. So it can be a real problem if you decide to make your kid take homeschooling.
