850,000 children were being homeschooled. Some educational experts say that the realnumber is double this estimate, and the ranks of homeschooled children seem to begrowing at the average rate of about eleven percent every year. At one time, there was atheory accounting for homeschooling: it was traditionally used for students who couldnot attend school because of behavioral or learning difficulties. Today, however, moreparents are taking on the responsibility of educating their own children at home due totheir dissatisfaction with the educational system. Many parents are unhappy about classsize, as well as problems inside the classroom. Teacher shortages and lack of fundingmean that, in many schools, one teacher is responsible for thirty or forty students. Thechildren are, therefore, deprived of the attention they need. Escalating classroomviolence has also motivated some parents to remove their children from school. Although there have been a lot of arguments for and against it, homeschooling inthe U.S. has become a multimillion dollar industry, and it is growing bigger and bigger.There are now plenty of websites, support groups, and conventions that help parentsprotect their rights and enable them to learn more about educating their children.Though once it was the only choice for troubled children, homeschooling today is anaccepted alternative to an educational system that many believe is failing.
