Becky keeps saying she’s going to home school Hannah and I honestly cannot think of anything worse. Being a teacher involves expertise. People go to school to learn how to be teachers. Home schooling is a ton of work. Kids don’t just magically learn how to read and there are development windows that can/will be missed if the home schooling parent isn’t extremely diligent. Becky is not capable of that even a little bit and neither are any of the cucks.
I would argue that the bigger barrier to successfully homeschooling Hannah would be Becky’s inability to self-regulate. She goes all screechy and flappy handed NOW when Hannah experiences the discomfort of teething. She WON’T be able to stay patient when she encounters resistance from Hannah on starting her day’s work or practicing her letters one more time or whatever. She doesn’t take Hannah anywhere even now so the (somewhat outdated) stereotype of the “weird homeschooler kid” will definitely apply.
Teaching and managing a classroom of 30 unconnected children at differing levels of ability with differing home lives and differing potential requires expertise, true. Implementing curriculum for your own child at home is way easier. It’s not the curriculum part that’s hard. The academic standards by grade are published for every state and one simply has to compare a prospective curriculum against those when choosing something suitable. It only has to work for one child, who you happen to know extremely well, so tailoring the learning experience is much easier.
Things that don’t require student loans to learn that Becky will still never manage, thus failing her child academically:
1. Don’t slug around in your bathrobe all day even though you’re working in the home. As the saying goes, “Early to bed, early to rise, makes a man healthy, wealthy, and wise.” Get up, get dressed, get going, and teach your children to do the same.
2. Don’t skip days. It’s much easier to keep momentum than it is to restore momentum. A child used to accomplishing their daily schoolwork won’t complain about it as much. Especially in the lower grades, you are working to developing the fine motor skills involved in grasping a writing utensil and using it for writing. Building that stamina requires consistency. Develop your schedule and stick to it. This works much better if you have already been consistent in your parenting.
3. Don’t stay home all the time. The onus will be on you to provide enrichment opportunities for your child. They don’t need the “socialization” of fighting off violent iPad kids at recess to grow and thrive but they do need input. Extracurriculars are good, recurring activities like church are better because you want them able to establish and retain friendships that didn’t originate from some groomer discord. (Working alongside you at times is great too, either in a household setting or if your family has a trade that allows the kids to ride along and hand you or Dad tools occasionally. Family pride is an effective motivator if wielded well.)
4. Kids have a harder time learning in a shithole than they would in a tidy home. Classrooms are organized and tidied each day, so too should your home be organized and tidied. I’m not talking about “Aspirational Influencer Decor,” just basic household management to minimize stress and distractions. They should know where their school materials are kept and have a clear, clean space in which to do their work.
Since Becky is a slovenly, heavily medicated and drugged loon she won’t be able to accomplish any of the above and Hannah will end up a brick-headed AND empty-headed girl. I can definitely see Becky touting the retarded “unschooling” fad, children being free little spirits that learn just by existing probably appealing to her own sloth, and Hannah ending up one of those unfortunate kids that still can’t read at 12.
I could be wrong, but I don't think Nymphomachy has a job (or he has trouble keeping one due to anger issues / misanthropy), so he's probably trying to stay quiet to keep a roof over his head. IIRC, he was on the verge of homelessness before Becky took him in.
