[19:19:08] aloo_shu heh I was in the irish home schooling association for a short time

[19:19:28] aloo_shu mainly for the quarterly? mag

[19:20:24] aloo_shu constitutional right to homeschool up to the age of 14 IIRC, in thr irish republic

[19:20:38] aloo_shu at which point, there is a test

[19:21:00] aloo_shu bullyshit

[19:21:16] aloo_shu also 'real', what

[19:22:49] aloo_shu on avg, homeschooled kids outperform reg school ones, but the problem that dysfunctional families are trying to hide behind homeschooling rights, exists

[19:27:02] aloo_shu apart from being able to support talent w/o being held back by a currculum, the main good argument for homeschooling is learning everything in ones own time, with less friction and more efficiency - exactly when the motivation is there. The typical tale from the home schooling mag was like parents who were about to lose faith when their son couldn't write at age 11, then he's

[19:27:02] aloo_shu making friends who are playing WoW, and blam, learns it in 6 minths, because now he wants to

[19:27:33] aloo_shu months*

[19:32:36] aloo_shu the boy I had been working with, had been kicked out of schools, even project schools, and was about to get put in an institution and medicated. After appx 3/4 of a year of home schooling, he fit into regular class, and in time made his exams and went to uni

[19:33:11] aloo_shu he just needed to find out that learninng was -fun, not traumatic, and -an experience he owned

[19:53:06] aloo_shu <%dramo> how do you even "hide behind homeschooling" ?

[19:53:08] aloo_shu kid from dysfunctional family is getting oldenough to go to school, teachers notice and report grave behaviour problems, social worker shows up at family home, parents go "school brings trubble" and retire kid from school,"it's muh right" (in countries where it is, e.g. UK, IRL)

[19:53:29] aloo_shu that's how

[19:56:34] aloo_shu 'you sound like someone who's copying propaganda' is a strong and convincing argument
