Reviews - What do customers think about But What About Socialization? Answering the Perpetual Home Schooling Question: A Review of the Literature?
 | Very encouraging Jul 14, 2005 |
Have friends or family members been bothering you about the socialization question? this book is a quick and easy read. no grandparent who has time to complain about your decision to homeschool will have any excuse not to read through this book. buy several copies and hand them out.
Also if you find yourself questioning your own decision to homeschool because of other people's attacks regarding socialization then this book will help to remind you that you are doing the right thing. Ultimately it will be your comfort and confidence that will convince people to stop attacking your decisions. if you are wavering on the issue then people will sense that and swoop in for the kill. If you are confident however then people will sense that too and they will begin to question their own ignorant ideas about socialization. Another good socialization book is "the socialization trap" by Rick Boyer which deals more with the negative aspects of socializing kids in the age segregated environments so common in modern institutional school settings.
As a homeschooling mom of two I say stop letting people get away with ignorant remarks about how your child will be socially deprived if they are homeschooled. Do the research and be ready to point out that in fact your children will be BETTER off socially than their institutionally schooled counterparts.

| I'm a home schooling mom and I found this book to be a great help in several ways. It was an encouragement to me, and something tangible that I could give to friends, neighbors and family to show them that there are lots of us out there and that we're doing an excellent job in raising and teaching our kids! I highly recommend this research book. | | | Write your own review about But What About Socialization? Answering the Perpetual Home Schooling Question: A Review of the Literature
