A: | I think we should home school our children when we decide to have kids. |
| |
B: | What? Why? |
| |
A: | Well, our public schools here are not very good and private school are just too expensive. I have been reading up on home schooling and it has a lot of advantages. |
| |
B: | Like what? I think that by doing something like that we would be isolating our children from social interaction. |
| |
A: | Well, first of all, I would be able to teach them everything they learn in school in a more relaxed and fun way. I also think that having a one-on-one class is much better since you can focus more on his or her strengths or weaknesses. |
| |
B: | I think neither your parents or mine would agree to such an idea. |
| |
A: | I will bring it up over Sunday brunch. |
| |
B: | Good luck with that! |
