Subject: RE: BS: Home Education UK
peace, kids wouldn't have recess or playtime, if they were not in school. they would be able to play with the kids that live near them yes, but is that enough?

folk festivals over here are a prime example of what intergration can do.
we would not have met the wonderful people we have if we stayed close to home. not that i am knocking the locals round here.

would home schooling encourage kids to explore further afield, if they did not have to travel to see their friends?

would they see different ways of family life if they did not go to each others houses?

school is definately not just for education, it is about finding out who you are around others.
