　　Is Homeschooling Advisable?

　　Today, a growing number of children in China are staying at home, not because they are giving up education but because their parents think they will actually receive a better education at home. They are being homeschooled at every level kindergarten, primary, junior middle and even senior middle school.

　　Peoples opinions vary on homeschooling. Some people support it, saying Chinas current education mode puts heavy study pressure on students and many of them suffer from depression and even commit suicide. Some oppose it, maintaining that students need interaction with classmates, so that they can fit into society. Still, there are people who insist that homeschooling is a game for rich people only, which cannot be expanded to the whole of society.

　　Personally, I think homeschooling is advisable as long as the family can afford it. As peoples personalities differ, so education should be diversified. Whats more, we do have successful examples of homeschooling. For example, Zheng Yuanjie, a famous Chinese writer of childrens stories had his son study at home after his son finished primary school study. Today, his son has grown up to be a successful person.
