I believe the focus in Susan Garland’s paper “The ABCs of Homeschooling,” is directed more to the pro side, leading you to believe that you get more out of homeschooling than regular school. She argues that the popularity of homeschooling has grown along with the availability of online material to accommodate those looking to get an education outside of the classroom. Garland argues that homeschooling has its con sides such as: More likely to get into trouble due to less monitoring, eventually get on each other’s nerves, become socially inexperienced, and the need for proof with any and all of your studies. However, even with all the cons homeschooling presents Garland has shown how it is effective and a great benefit for those who may need…

When it comes down to choosing the best childcare option for your child, the first factor that most parents look at is: what that particular child needs. Now, there is nothing wrong with that, but there are a number of factors that needs to be considered prior to making that final choice.

It has been said that, "Sacrificing your happiness for the happiness of the one you love is by far, the truest type of love.” However, walking away from everything that makes you happy in life, in order for another to be happy should not be required of love. Relationships should be built on mutual respect and consideration for one another. Although compromise in a relationship is a necessary component for its success, denying the core of who you are is not. Speaking from experience, in the end, there will be nothing but resentment and identity-conflict. “A Wagner Matinee” by Willa Cather relates to my life in many ways as it exposes the results of sacrificing one’s true self and the disturbing consequences of physical hardship, emotional distress, and regret.…
As a child, I always used to wonder why can't my parents be friendly with me? Why can't they try to see where I'm coming from? All I wanted was them to spend some time together as a family and not having felt as I was in school 24x7. Was it because they were under the cultural influence which was directing them to maintain parental gap? The answer is yes; they were just practicing their cultural norms.

As a result, I kept all my thoughts, my views and peer problems to myself. From being a brilliant kid, I became a person with passive personality: always scared, nervous and feared socializing because I…

“We learn more by looking for the answer to a question and not finding it than we do from learning the answer itself.” People go through their whole lives trying to figure out who they are, look for a sense of purpose or belonging, or attempt to discover the right path for them-self. The lucky ones have somehow found what ever it is they were looking for throughout their journey. They try to teach the people who are still looking how to find their way but often fail because it is not up to them where or how someone else should live their life. It is up to the individual himself to find fulfillment.…
