家庭教育的利弊

家庭教育的利弊

Parents are, in most cases, extremely concerned about the growth of their children. When conventional teaching fails some parents, some of them prefer to educate their children at home. People have been ponder ing, for many years, whether or not home schooling is superior to traditional teaching without reaching any definite consensus. As I see it, as for those home learners, what will be lost is greater than what will be gained.

Some parents believe that it is more feasible to let their children receive domestic education because they believe this mode of education enables children to grow better both academically and mentally. One of the most glaring merits of family education is that students with diverse abilities can receive the custom-tailored education, which fits for them. After all, parents are most familiar with their children and willing to devote all their hearts to children’s character-training and moral education. Another benefit coming from parenting is that it is a good way to strengthen the family tie. The more time parents spend cultivating their children，the better parent-children relationship will be.

Home education, however, might trigger some disadvantages to some extent. Virtually, on no account can we ignore its potential drawbacks. On the downsides, those home learners tend to be socially inadequate due to the lack of group experience. Even worse，one might become introverted or eccentric when he or she is confined to home schooling for a long time. By contrast, traditional classroom education can help youngsters to learn to how to communicate and associate with their peers. Another demerit might be that in comparison with parents, teachers are professionally well-trained, know the common sense of education and can summarize the core of knowledge. In this sense, those who receive traditional education are liable to excel academically.

In closing，my stand is that although home education might have some advantages in some facets, it is not universally suitable for most people. For one thing, educators outshine parents in terms of disseminating knowledge. For another, those who receive home education are more likely to be emotionally underdeveloped in their relations with their peers.
