Modern Day Child Sacrifice

To be blunt…you need to know this so you don’t inadvertently murder your own children, by listening to, and following people who either are ignorant themselves or who don’t have the courage to stand up to the globalists.  In the end, you and your children become the “road kill” and bear the “risk” for decisions made on the basis of greed, power, and  the worship of mammon and Baal.  Don’t become a casualty  or collateral damage in a war by ignorance.

The Pros And Cons Of Homeschooling

Homeschooling, sometimes called elective homeschooling, is a form of education that allows children to pursue an interest that may not have been considered in the traditional schools. In this way, homeschooling has given people the opportunity to have fun and learn with their kids while having their children attend a learning center. While homeschooling can be a great idea, it can also be challenging.

Homeschooling is not for everybody, but there are those parents who want to do it and there are others who are skeptical about the methods of homeschooling. This article will give you some answers to your questions about homeschooling, whether you want to start homeschooling for the first time or if you are already a homeschooler.

One of the biggest concerns of those who have children and wish to home school them is the idea of being a single parent. If you are already a single mom or dad, then homeschooling may or may not be right for you.   You will have to figure out how to both home school and maintain a work schedule.  If you are not a single parent it may be easier for you to decide whether or not to homeschool if there is another wage-earner in the home.

Another concern about homeschooling is that many parents have worries that homeschooled children may have low self esteem. For a start, most homeschooled children are very intelligent. This means that they are probably more likely to become successful at other subjects as well.   They are not held back by a class that caters to the slowest children.  They can move ahead and learn more than usual.  This means that you don’t need to worry about homeschooled kids becoming failures; there are many who have gone on to great success.

Another important consideration about homeschooling is the social aspect. Homeschoolers are usually a bit more independent than their classmates who get regular education. This means that they have more independence and are also more likely to do something exciting with their spare time. They do not feel like they are in a classroom all day and they don’t feel pressured to do things that are not interesting. They are free to explore and learn about different subjects and their curiosity could lead them to discovering more. than what they were able to learn in a conventional class.  As for meeting other children, often there are home schooling associations that offer group activities for children where children can interact with others.

Another consideration is that homeschooled children tend to be happier. It has been proven that homeschooled kids tend to be happier and healthier than children who have regular school education.  There is less anxiety from their peers and this is something that should be very positive for children as well. Children who are more relaxed and are not nervous to do something new are also less likely to get depressed. Thus, homeschoolers are usually more cheerful and outgoing than their classmates.

Homeschooling and College

Homeschooled students tend to excel, both in content and the eagerness and ability to learn. So, they will often want to enter one of those excellent schools in their mid to late teens. But applying to college, difficult for anyone, can be especially tough for those who acquired an education in a non-traditional setting.

The absence of state, or even licensed private school, transcripts is the first hurdle for most homeschooled individuals. But that barrier has been overcome by thousands, perhaps millions, of homeschooled students. Universities, even the most (and sometimes particularly the most) prestigious accept homeschooled students. Here, too, such students frequently excel.

One common method for tackling ‘the transcript problem’ is to generate one as the child matures. Many homeschooled programs are structured, making it easier to keep records and assign grades much as is done in public schools. Such records are taken seriously by many colleges. It’s best to start earlier than usual to explore which ones might be targeted for admission.

Select a half-dozen possible colleges or universities and ask the admissions department officials what they look for in terms of transcripts. More and more are becoming used to answering the question from parents of homeschooled teens. Over 2 million kids per year are now homeschooled – many of them choose to go to a traditional four-year college.

There are other forms, in some ways even more important, for admissions officials to judge fitness. Decisions for admission, at least the ‘first cut’ of applications, are made based on standardized tests such as the SAT and the ACT. Homeschooled students are free to take these like their public or private school peers. On average, homeschooled students do much better on these tests, giving them a leg up for college admission.

Have your high schooler take a number of CLEP tests.  Passing a CLEP test proves knowledge of a particular subject.

After gathering these objective data, other criteria come into play. Many colleges have their own admissions tests. Even apart from administered tests, college applications very often have a section requiring students to write some sort of essay. Those sections provide students with an opportunity not only to express intelligent views of the world, but to give admissions officers insight into individual tastes and ability.

Individual essays are often used to ferret out unusual personal interests, aptitude and other unique attributes that make the applicant stand out. That’s an area in which homeschoolers, with their non-traditional education, can easily excel.

A mixture of Advanced Placement courses, many of which can be taken in an independent study mode not requiring attendance in a traditional classroom, is also a good idea. Those help flesh out the ‘transcript’ provided to admissions officers. Some of them can be taken as part of an accelerated learning program, in which the student studies material in advance of the common age of his or her peers.

Those courses help show decision makers that the student is fully prepared.   They can demonstrate the common fact that homeschooled students are typically more than ready to tackle the demands of college.
