what do you know? Conservatives were entirely correct about homeschooling. And here are some receipts.
One key finding was that homeschooled adults exhibited better mental health than their non-homeschooled peers amid the nation’s ongoing mental health crisis affecting teens and young adults.
The report found that long-term homeschoolers had the highest levels of optimism, gratitude, and life satisfaction. They were also the least likely to “feel helpless dealing with life’s problems” or report depression and anxiety symptoms.
… Long-term homeschoolers were also more likely to be married, have more children on average, and had the lowest divorce rates.
… Likely, their decision to take care of their children instead of pursuing a career resulted in better mental health outcomes for themselves and their children. No amount of financial success can substitute for good mental health and a nice family when the “achievers” live in a perpetual state of mental anguish, anxiety, helplessness, and silent desperation.
Parents, decide what you want for your kids and what is the most likely way for that to happen.
