    Discussion Questions
    ” About Homeschooled”.
    Everything has advantages and disadvantages. Personally, I am not the favor of homeschooling. But if the circumstances of a family have no other option but to adopt this system, then it’s fine.
    Homeschooling can cause socialization difficulties; Children use to get into the habit of loneliness. It’s not an easy task. This system requires a lot of planning and discipline.
