Preferred term

Homeschooling and the Home School Legal Defense Association  

Definition

  • For most of human history in most societies, most of a child's education has taken place in the home, imparted by parents, siblings, relatives, or tutors. Since the late 1960s, however, there has emerged in the United States and elsewhere a selfconsciously political movement recommending this practice as an alternative to formal education in schools.
