I am going to get it out of the way and say I don’t like homeschooling. I thinks it is almost impossible to do correctly on social and educational development. This is coming from someone that went to a shitty public school.
So my sister was talking about homeschooling her kid, she said her and her husband will teach her. My sister and her husband are not the brightest people, much more physically labor people than understanding math.
I tried to ask if that was a good idea but she basically said how hard could it be. So I started quizzing her and these were not hard question. For examples I asked what a verb was, name the planets, and a simple math problem ( literally asked her to do division).
She could only name a few planets and she gave the definition for an adjective not a verb. Also just completely wrong with the math. It was kinda sad.
I told her the right answer and asked if she can’t do it how will she teach the kid to read or any math. She called me a jerk and left to cry.
Her husband is on my ass but my mom thinks it a blessing. AITA?? I’m questioning myself
