Why is schooling process necessary for child?

It is not actually the schooling process that is necessary for the child; it is the learning process and the child acquiring needed skills.

What is is a alternative to public and private school?

Homeschooling is an alternative to public and private schooling. It involves educating children at home instead of sending them to a traditional school. It allows for flexibility in curriculum and learning methods.


Why is home schooling conducted?

There are a number of reasons for home-schooling. In fact, it is a style of education that goes back hundreds of years. In the 1600s and 1700s, for example, girls were not encouraged to attend school, so wealthy parents taught them at home. In modern times, home-schooling has been used by some American parents who did not want their children to attend school with students of another race, or by parents who did not believe the public schools in their city were good enough and did not have the money for private school, or by parents who felt their child needed extra attention and a specially-designed curriculum. One group of parents that does a lot of home-schooling are religious Christians; they want their children to only learn a certain set of religious beliefs and study all subjects from their religion's perspective, without any of the influences they believe to be incorrect or incompatible with their faith. And as mentioned above, another frequent supporter of home-schooling are the parents whose children have special needs-- a home-schooling curriculum can be individually tailored and thus very effective. For example, there are kids who are functioning at the near-genius level and are bored with public school, so home-schooling allows the parents to design a challenging curriculum to meet their particular child's interests. Or there are kids who have emotional or behavioral issues and are bullied in public (or private) school; their parents find that home-schooling provides a safe and structured environment where their child can learn without being subjected to verbal abuse by other kids.


What was education like in the 1700s?

In the 1700s, education was primarily for the wealthier classes and focused on classical languages, literature, and philosophy.

Discipline was strict, and teaching methods were rote-based, emphasizing memorization and repetition.
