I am concerned about a friend home educating her children. I think home education is better than school if it is done. My df does not seem to be doing anything of the sort. The children are infant school age and cannot read, write or do basic maths to any extent. The reason for this is because 'that is what school does', she doesn't want to teach them anything as then it would be like school. She has said that is she just leaves them to it eventually they will just know how to do all that stuff. The children have no interest in anything other than watching the tv and she is more than happy to let them do that. I was wondering if anyone could suggest what to do in this situation, or if I should just leave her to it.
