Ask HN: How should I afford my children?
I wholeheartedly believe you are doing your children a disservice and setting them up for failure by homeschooling them. I&#x27;m sure you have your reasons and I&#x27;m sure you think they are good ones but I honestly can&#x27;t believe it&#x27;s what&#x27;s best for them. If you want to work from home work from home there are a number of online resources&#x2F;job boards to do this (WeWorkRemotely comes to mind) but don&#x27;t homeschool. I honestly can&#x27;t think of anything worse than being cooped up all day with a single parent and then not being able to go out because dad has to work in the hours he isn&#x27;t teaching. Homeschooling is bad enough on it&#x27;s own but further removing the ONLY parent from society? Dear god... I can count on 1 finger the homeschooled adults I know that are capable of non-awkward social interactions, don&#x27;t do that to your kids. To be perfectly honest if I was a judge your spouse would have to be a real piece of work to give a stay-at-home homeschooling father with no current job custody.<p>Sorry to be so blunt but if you go forward with your stated plan I think you are making a huge mistake. I understand how parts of this comes off &quot;Who the fuck is this guy to be telling me how to raise my children?&quot; but I think if you were to poll people (on HN or elsewhere) you would get a similar response re: homeschooling.
