You also won't have to worry about trips to the locker or rushing to class when you've been held up in another by another teacher. One on One teaching. CONS: You won't get to interact with other kids your age as much. <br><b>References : </b><br> PROS: You won’t have to worry about distractions from other students nor worry about teachers taking up precious work time with longwinded lectures.

For example, I have heard people answer that the house doesn't get cleaned as often, but that wasn't the case in our house or many of the homeschooled families I know. People assume stupid things like you don't know how to socialize, you'll hate your family for being so protective, and you'll have trouble later on in life. Some people do, but in general most don't. Pros: You can learn at your own pace, you can choose a curriculum that suits your learning style (not the teacher's teaching style and the districts agenda), you can take college classes while still in high school, you will have more time to socialize with friends, you can go on field trips to places that schools would never go, you can take charge of your education and be proud of what you accomplish.<br><b>References : </b><br>Homeschooled K-12 Cons: There really are not that many and the few out there are not general cons.

The socialization a home schooler gets has more to do with the real world vs the pretend world that public school students live in. In public school kids are forced in a class with 20-30 people their age and zip code. I home school kids are dealing with people young and old and from all over. <br><b>References : </b><br> Pros:
-work at your own pace
-time to study what interests you
-time for REAL socialization in the REAL world
-Better education potential
-A true education not spoon fed facts
-time with the ones you love most
