>The State's Education Monopoly Increases Prices and Destroys Choice - Ron Paul  - Charleston Voice - 
"Home schooling is a fad"

It appears that you have no concept of what home schooling is or how long it’s been taking place let alone the quality of instruction these children get. In historical terms state run schools are the fad. Parents have been home schooling kids since the first child was born. In the context of modern schooling, this has been taking place as long as there have been state run schools. Fad, I think not.

This statement "Whilst some parents do the best job they can and may be successful for primary age children the idea fails badly when you start talking about technical subjects in secondary schooling............unless mum or dad is a highly educated person in their own right. Average people are not capable of negotiating technical subjects which they themselves failed at whilst at school." is all I need to know that you invested no time discovering what’s included in home schooling or even bothered to looked into what it involves. Every home schooled child MUST meet the educational standards set by state, they are required to pass all of the same exams. Every subject taught in a state school MUST be taught in a home school environment. Parents have access to all of the resources teachers use. Now following your train of thought "unless mum or dad is a highly educated person in their own right" a large proportion of home schooled kids would not have the ability to pass the required exam's. Facts simply blow this assumption away. A parent does not have to be skilled or educated to teach a technical subject just as many teachers themselves are not trained in most of the subjects they teach. When a student moves on to college then having staff with advanced training, degrees, in things such as chemistry is important but at any level below college the material available is sufficient for parents to school their kids. If you have any doubts about what I just said talk to some teachers, many will tell you of times they were required to teach subjects such as the various sciences when they themselves had little understanding of what they were teaching. This is in fact common as the state will fund the educational system with only enough to keep the students educated to a certain level, enough to be put to work flipping burgers or pounding nails, but still dumbed down enough so that they can be manipulated, brought into debt slavery.

I could spend a lot or time outlining what amounts to total crap that our kids are taught in schools and we would more than likely disagree on which are important but I believe we can agree that nowhere near enough time is spent on all things economic. But here’s an important item to contemplate, home schooled kids tend to be less likely to get into serious debt than their state educated counterparts. I believe it’s because while teaching the minimum required by the state home schooled kids benefit from their parents real world experiences which is added, mixed, into the required curriculum. Parents have this leeway, teachers do not, they are heavily restricted in the material they use and any deviation results in punishment. Think back, which teachers did you find the most interesting and learn the most from? Were they the ones who read from the course books or were they the ones who added some real world experience that made things fun? Yet whenever you read about a teacher being punished it’s the ones who dare to teach their students more than what the books contain. This is state control, we can't have free thinkers out there making logical decisions can we?

The state needs to stay the hell out of schools. Until they are no longer allowed to meddle with educational systems our kids will continue to come out of state schools walking talking clones of what politicians envision as the perfect citizen. They want predictable and easily manipulated masses that they can control. The concept of the people controlling the politicians is one of the most frightening things any politician has night mares about. Until the masses are able to think for themselves and understand the politicians work for us we will continue down this road being robbed and manipulated.

Début de l'article : This selection is taken from Chapter 5 of Ron Paul's new book The School Revolution: A New Answer for Our Broken Education System. The free-market principle of open entry is challenged by governmental restrictions on access to consumer markets. There are many official justifications for these restrictions, but the main one is this: “Customers do not know what is good for them.” They do not know what products to buy, what prices to pay, or...
