What kind of students?  College students?  Non-traditional students?  Students working for a GED?  Specifics, please.

Most of the people I work with at the school don't talk about students much after school is out.  Other than going home and telling their spouses how their day was or discussing a rare situation with a co-worker, the students don't come up much.  Most of us work around the students all day long and when the day is over we want to focus on having a good time and enjoying our family, not dwelling on our students.  Most of the talk about students actually takes place at the lunch table or immediately after the last class is dismissed.  Once we leave work, that's exactly what we want to do, we don't want to drag our work home with us anymore than anyone else.

Too me yes and no. When i was in Middle school i was looking forward to high school as a new start. I thought it was going to be great! That's when all the teachers came in and started stating that high school is so hard and that people don't care about you there and its just one big place with a bunch of bad people doing bad things. These where the teachers that were suppose to be supporting me! So i was so worried going to high school and when i got there i noticed it was great! it was just like middle school but there was a whole lot of more people and you get a bit more Independence homework and school wise. So i guess high school is different in some ways but its a whole lot better then middle school. There are a lot more people that you get to know and you classes will have different people in them but it just opens the door to new friends.

Here's how I benefited from going to an out-of-state school:\n1. Gained more independence\n2. Became more responsible\n3. Grew up faster because I had to make more decisions on my own, cook for myself, couldn't always run to my parents to solve my problems\n4. Appreciated my parents more because I was away from them\n5. Made new friends because I wasn't always hanging out with the old ones\n6. Experienced new things and places because of a new surrounding\n7. Broadened my horizon to be in a different place with different groups of people

Definitely. Less of a chance for children to "forget" what they learn. They will still have the same amount of days off, just spread throughout the year.

The benefits....growing together as a family and FREEDOM!  Those are the biggest benefits for me and my family.  The freedom to learn as we see fit, the freedom to learn and explore what we FEEL like learning and exploring, the freedom to spend all day at the beach regardless of whether or not we are some type of schoolish "vacation".  \n\nWho needs recess when you can go outside all day, swim in your pool, walk, run, go to the park, etc. for much longer than at school?  \n\nAs far as friends, home educated children make them in their neighborhoods, extra curricular activities, and groups.  \n\nAs far as team effort...um, a family  IS a team and how silly for anyone to try and say that school is the only place where "team" work happens, what a crock.   When siblings work on something together or a child works with their parent on something that IS team work, and when home educated children get with their friends and do projects or are on a sports team...that IS teamwork.\n\nSocially?  I love the socializing that happens via home education and that is another awesome benefit of home schooling.  You are not stuck in an artificial setting with 30 peers 5 days a week, ONLY in school settings does that happen.  Outside of school people of all ages intermingle and socialize and converse with one another, share their knowledge, etc.  Even in a stuffy ole office building you more than likely will not find people of all the same age working together.  You can meet interesting people in your community, at the library, stores, at the Bus Stop, volunteering, etc...so awesome.  The world is so much bigger than the classroom, and how many people do you "meet" in school anyway?  Unless there is a new child or you are a new student you've already made a decision as to who you are going to hang with.  That is why many home schoolers are seen as odd, it really isn't an issue, so they aren't used to the situation and it is new and uncomfortable, so what?  Most fit in after awhile, same as a small town boy/girl making the move to the big city...some only take a bit of time to adjust, some may take longer but eventually you begin to feel comfortable and fit in.  \n\nSetbacks?  They may not know how to raise their hand to ask how to go potty...oh, but that doesn't happen outside of school, except perhaps in the military.  Standing in line?  Nope, they do just fine, as many are accustomed to standing in line at the store, bank, movies, etc. with their parents.  Taking instructions from other adults?  Most home educated children I know do something outside of the home that requires taking directions from other adults so no, they are fine there too.\n\nIgnorant people making bias and rash judgements on a group of people who are different than them...that is the biggest setback.  Having to defend your reasons for home educating to a bunch of ignorant people making generalizations based on opinions only or perhaps a couple of bad run ins.\n\nSometimes we get under each others skin, but that is normal for most families.  Sometimes it is hard to think of new and fun things to do and be creative.    However, I certainly wouldn't call those setbacks.

It is easier to put them back in at the start of the school year. There are pretty intense placement tests they go through, but if you've done a good job it will be no problem. If your child is young for their grade and they want to move him back, try to be open minded. It can make a huge difference in socialization. The only time I knew of someone having a problem was into high school. There were issues with graduating and receiving a diploma because of required credits.

I was home schooled, as were several of my brothers and we all agree that it's more detrimental than beneficial most of the time.  It took me quite a while to overcome the deficiencies I had in social education.  My interaction with others was so limited and on such a strange level that I was socially backward for most of the time I was in the public education system after my time at home.  I also feel that my educational experience suffered.  I'm not saying don't, but I do suggest that you think carefully about the reasons you're doing it.

*you can choose to start school very early in the morning or 1pm\n*no paper, so you have to copy all the worksheet, that the teach wrote on the board before class,down on your notebook.\n*the free food, if any, are like a couple of crackers and some juice, on the good days, its pasta or soup.\n*the actual class courses are much harder than here  on america.\n*foreign language is very weak.(english, the only one)\n*private school students dont care about their studies, at all.\n*one day these gangs started fighting in the middle of our lunch break and they lit a bunch of fireworks(brazilian style haha) in the cafeteria..\n*we actually learn how to play sports in p.e.\n*ill add more as i remember..

well depending on wether you go to a private or not the consequences will very. Usually in private schools it is very harsh. eg failure etc but in public schools u usually just have to sit the test again. it's not worth it.

hmmm i beleive it can have both negative and positive effects...on one hand your children are home and you know they are safe...on the other hand kids dont like to be controlled, if theyre going to do drugs or have sex or whatever the curfews try to prevent , if they want to do whatever it is theyre going to it regardless hmm maybe there will be more kids skipping school to do what they want during the day when theyre parents are gone who knows i think it should left up to parents to decide when theyre children should be home does the government raise our children...i dont think so maybe old people should have to be in some cant drive as it is haha

There are documents that you can use to show them.  Those I have seen listed are financial documents, family documents, and work documents.\n\nIf you have a substantial bank account, that is a good reason to return.  If you are going as a student and then expect to work at a certain job upon your return, ask that workplace to write a letter stating when they expect you back and that work you will be expected to do.  If you have strong ties to your family, it will also be expected that you will come back to be with your family; especially if you are leaving wife and children behind.\n\nGood luck!

Our actions can have effects that travel and/ or we may be unaware of how things affect those around us. As a teacher, I wonder at how i'm affecting these kids lives. Many really like me and i wonder if they'll remember me for a long time (like i remember some of my teachers) and how much do i shape them.
