As a father of a homeschooled child, the "school at home" is nothing like what a normal homeschool day is. All the homeschool resources are closed. All the supplemental resources are closed. No parks, no libraries, no nothing. We would take regular field trips that were related to the coursework. We do all sorts of extra programs at these resources, all not available.
This version of doing school at home was essentially "here's your homework, kid. you can ask me questions if you'd like, I'll try to be available. Just follow the homework given on this website...."
Just saying, I would never call this public version of school at home "homeschooling".
my notion of it was more akin to not going to a building everyday where someone is unable to ask questions cus muh narrative. at least at home, you arent going to tell them which bathroom they can or cant use or which pronouns. or that theres no gender.
it opens their minds up to the idea that an adult is willing to be there for them
as they learn. nothing more nothing less.
getting them used to feeling more empowered as an individual and less a
mindless droning sheep hoping to get 'good dog' petting from the only adult
allowed to indoctrinate them [at school]
