American homeschooling movement

The American homeschooling movement gained momentum in the late 20th century as families sought alternatives to traditional public and private schools. Advocates often emphasize personalized education, allowing children to learn at their own pace, explore interests deeply, and integrate family values. Legal frameworks vary by state, with some providing significant support and others imposing strict regulations. The movement is influenced by diverse factors, including religious beliefs, educational philosophies, and dissatisfaction with school systems. Today, homeschooling incorporates various approaches, often supported by online resources and communities, making it a viable educational option for many families across the U.S.
