The notorious "wonderful school years" are still remembered by many with horror: an endless pile of homework, a backpack that breaks your back, indifferent teachers, bullying, and boredom. Is there an alternative? Yes, if you know that the responsibility for children's education lies not with the school, but with the family, and the standard eleven years at a desk is far from the only possible path.
In the book "A Call for Parents," journalist and psychologist Kristina Sandalova explains how schools are adapting to the 21st century, shares her own and others' experiences of educating children, presents experts' opinions, and provides all the details about homeschooling: how to find good teachers, organize a schedule that works for everyone, take exams, and avoid unnecessary stress.
This book is for parents who are ready to choose how and what to teach their children so that they not only gain knowledge but also grow up happy.
