DIVING INTO THE MINDSET OF HOMESCHOOLING PARENTS A DESCRIPTIVE STUDY IN UNDERSTANDING THE CHOICES MADE BY PARENTS OF HOMESCHOOLERS/UNSCHOOLERS

Abstract

To study the mindset of parents who are homeschoolers about Homeschooling by conducting detailed interview with these parents. The concept of Homeschooling is discussed and the perceptions and mindset of homeschooling parents is taken into consideration. The parents involved are homeschoolers, Deschoolers and Unschoolers; each of the term is discussed thoroughly. The questions asked to these parents covers their philosophical, psychological, personal, social, and educational ideologies to choose homeschooling and what it meant to them and their children. The questions asked have been categorised in the same order. Six set of parents have been interviewed by the researcher for the purpose of the study. The conclusion drawn out of the interview and observation is the reasons of choosing homeschooling of all the parents have been more or less the same, namely undue pressure on restricted curriculum, unhealthy competition between peers and encouraged by their parents, bullying, inculcation of certain unacceptable behaviours from the surroundings, cultural and social bias, etc. The biggest reason cited is the focus on “One-size-fits-all” curriculum which may not be everyone’s cup of tea.
