With regard to children education, most parents choose to have their children educated with other kids in public and private schools to receive traditional education while some other parents may prefer to homeschool their own kids. Which kind of education is more preferable? The following article is about this issue. Read it carefully and write an article of NO LESS THAN 300 words, in which you should:
1. summarize briefly the article, and then
2. give your comment
When considering the options for educating their children, parents have few choices. They can opt to send their child to public schools, which are operated with federal and state money and thus teach federal and state-approved curricula: private schools, which are privately owned and have varying standards for teachers, curricula, etc.: or they can choose to homeschool, the practice of which is governed by different laws depending on where they live. While the educational standards are fairly consistent with public and private schools, homeschooling can be done in any number of ways, ranging from traditional curricula to unlearning, and everything in-between.
Much like the ongoing debate regarding government-run healthcare versus private insurance, there are benefits to each of these educational choices. Backbiters of government-run insurance accuse programs of offering one-size-fits-all coverage with participants often having to wait for important procedures and more impersonal relationship with doctors, whereas private health insurance allows the insured to choose their doctors and tailor their healthcare to their personal needs. Similarly, opponents of public education fear that their child will be shuffled into a classroom and given an education that does not take into account the child’s unique learning styles and individual needs.
On the flip side of this coin, however, is what some perceive to be a lack of oversight and consistency. Backbiters of homeschooling worry that the laws governing parents are too lax, and that there is no guarantee that children will receive a quality education. Requirements for homeschoolers vary by state: some states insist on annual testing to ensure that homeschooled children are keeping up with their counterparts: other states only require that these students be tested if and when they decide to enter the public school system. There is no set curriculum for homeschooling parents and students. Homeschooling parents argue that, since their primary concern is that their child’s education surpasses what they would have otherwise received, such worries are unnecessary, but this does little to relieve the worries of well-meaning educators and citizens.
Another concern for homeschooled children is that they are not being taught necessary socialization skills. Those who present this argument worry that, by being taught in their home, these students are ill-equipped to integrate themselves into society upon graduation, and are not as prepared as their contemporaries for college or the workplace. However, homeschooling has gained in popularity over the years and there are more opportunities available to parents and students, including opportunities for physical education "classes" at participating gyms and various extracurricular activities.
Conversely, homeschoolers argue that public school offers too much socialization, and not enough focus on what is important, namely receiving a quality education. These parents argue that a typical classroom setting is not conducive to learning, as it provides too many distractions, and that socialization is not, and should never be a reason for sending your child to a public school.

Better to Educate Children Together In the article, the author mainly weighs the advantages and disadvantages of homeschooling vs. traditional education. In terms of disadvantages of homeschooling, the author presents two major aspects, namely, a lack of oversight and consistency and no enough socialization skills teaching. While for advantages, homeschooling is more apt to enable students to obtain a quality education. Though it may be true that children can be given special treatment when they are home-schooled, I still think it is more beneficial to educate children together in traditional classroom settings. In the first place, children from different family can share with and learn from one another when they are educated together. As is known to all, every person is unique. Ghildren of various abilities and interests being educated together get more opportunities to learn about themselves and other childrea When they understand themselves and others better and are more aware of their own defects and merits, they may try to eliminate the defects and strengthen the merits by learning from peers. Undoubtedly, this helps children to grow. In addition, by learning together, children can become more cooperative and learn to get along well with others. When different children work together to face a challenge or handle a problem, they invariably treat the issue from different viewpoints, and in the process learn to express themselves and to understand others’ different opinions. They also stand a chance to learn to negotiate, to compromise and to reach an agreement These are all useful communicative skills for their future life. To sum up, I think it better to teach children together in traditional schools. It helps the children to understand each other’s strengths and shortcomings and to develop their social skills. Even though homeschooling may be more efficient in addressing each individual’s strengths, its risk of possibly depriving the child of his other potentials is severe so it is just not advisable.
