RE: A typical homeschool lesson, with Bob Dylan
From what i know of your son, and how intelligent he is, you are a perfect example of why you dont need to send your kids to school! His mind is totally open and awake, not at all dumbed down by 'the system'
Hearty congrats on being brave and ignoring the rhetoric!
Exactly!
Next try Paul Simon Rhythm of the Saints for social studies.
Thanks @eco-alex . Yes, my oldest has developed remarkable understanding and abilities with computers and the internet, which is something he probably wouldn't have learned in school. In many ways , the school system is outdated and ill equipped to prepare children for the reality of the fast changing world they are growing up into.
Saying that, I think me and you learned quite a lot in school - particularly in practicing ways to beat the system - and also made some lifelong friendships, so it's not all bad.
