    Pros - Control over your own education, if you don't like a book you are studying you can pick another one, work at your own pace, study anywhere even outside, travel & vacations count as school because it's a field trip

    Cons - I can't think of any at all. I have no complaints about my homeschool years

    Source(s): homeschooled all my life, currently in college

    There is no teacher to assign you silly lessons to teach you to dislike homeschooling.

    Pros - I don't have to sit in a desk for 8hrs a day because I can do my school work anywhere I want, I don't have to wake up very early and rush out the door, I can learn in my pjs if I want, I don't worry about what all the other kids are wearing and if they will bully me, I don't worry about school shootings, I can study any subject I want and don't have to wait till I get to certain grade, I can learn how I want such as watch movies or documentaries for history, I earn money working during the morning & day then do some school work at night, I can graduate early by continuing to do school during the summer so I have to wait till after supper to hang out

    Cons - It's annoying sometimes learning a subject with my younger brothers, I don't like some of the teachers at co op lessons, some field trips at co op are boring, I don't like getting up early for some volunteer work and some friends can't hang out because they go to private school and have too much homework after being at school all day
