Slight disagreement, but staying on topic i'm not sure I agree with home schooling.

If you come to a kuffar country or born there, you should look at giving your children the ability to face their kuffar neighbours. If children are home schooled how will they know how to deal with certain situations they might come up against when in a kuffar country.

Obviously i don't know the full situation the sister is in, nor the country but I talk of home schooling generally, especially for muslim children in the west. Conventional school not only teaches subject matter but about things like teamwork which are practical skills which are needed when e.g. the child goes on to university.

I believe as long as the parents give the child "unconditional love", the child will never do anything that they know will hurt their parents. I know people who kept off ciggarates/drugs not because if their parents find out they will get beaten black and blue but because if they find out the mother will probably not eat for a week out of sadness and cry herself silly.

These are common points brought up against homeschooling but none of them are valid. Go and have a look at these schools and universities and see how many of these kids actually know 'teamwork' and you'll see very few. Hence the reason employers are constantly complaining that school/university leavers barely have the skills for the jobs they apply for

On the other hand, numerous studies have shown that homeschooled children achieve better grades, are more likely to do volunteer work (which requires teamwork- and if you're not good at team work, you'll never volunteer for these charities and stuff like these homeschooled kids do), they are more confident than their public/private schooled counterparts, less likely to commit crime, etc. And on a religious level, they won't be subjected to kufr propaganda on a daily basis but when they go out into the real world for employment and so forth, they will already have the intelligence and confidence to deal adequately with anything thrown at them by the kuffar

However, their public/private school counterparts may not be so fortunate

Homeschool your kids people
