1. Homeschooling is putting the Faith before worldly learning. Education quality is poor. The main -- if not only -- advantage of traditional Catholic homeschooling is the benefit to one's Faith.
I would disagree in most cases with this statement. I was homeschooled for 90% of my education and I know quite a lot of homeschoolers who did very well for themselves. They managed well to become doctors, engineers, jounalists, teachers, etc...
Homeschoolers here in Australia have a good reputation for doing well academically. I personally know quite a few big 8-10 child families who homeschooled all their children successfully.
Like everything there has to be a balance so that children are not too isolated and sheltered and I believe this is the reason a lot of people are against it due to their bad experiences.
I believe the parents are the first and foremost educators of their children and it is up to them to educate themselves in the Faith so that they know what is good for their children.
If the parents are capable and willing to homeschool their children then I congratulate them as I know it takes a lot of work.
I think the schools 200 years ago that were run by teaching orders such as the Dominicans would have been far better than even Traditional schools today as SSPX is a Priestly society that was not originally formed primarily for the education of the young.
There are many problems with even Traditional Schools and I believe on of the main problems is that parents do not take their responsiblity of forming their children themselves seriously and so they send them to Traditional schools with the attitude that the school will do all the education for them including discipline and teaching them the Faith. Before the parents realise the children have lost the Faith and no longer go to Mass because the Parents have neglected their primary responsibilties of raising the children in the Faith.
