home-
schooled
. Some educational experts say that the real number is double this estimate, and the ranks of
home-schooled children seem to be growing at the average rate of about eleven percent every year.
At one time, there was a theory
accounting for
home-schooling: it was traditionally used for
students who could not attend school because of behavioral or learning difficulties. Today, however, more
parents are taking on the responsibility of educating their own children at home due to their
dissatisfaction
with the educational system. Many parents are unhappy about class size, as well as
problems inside the classroom. Teacher shortages and lack of funding mean that, in many schools, one
teacher is responsible for thirty or forty students. The children are, therefore, deprived of the attention
they need. Escalating classroom violence has also motivated some parents to remove their children from
school.
Although there have been a lot of
arguments
for and against it, home-schooling in the U.S. has
become a multi-million dollar industry, and it is growing bigger and bigger. There are now plenty of
websites, support groups, and conventions that help parents protect their rights and enable them to learn
more about educating their children. Though once it was the only choice for troubled children, home-
schooling today is an accepted alternative to an educational system that many believe is failing.

ones - a loss of more resources and more energy. For example, if a customer buys a high-quality
appliance that can be easily repaired, the manufacturer receives an important message. In the same way, if
a customer chooses a product with less packaging, that customer sends an important message to the
manufacturers. To reduce garbage, the throw-away must stop.
The second step is to reuse. It is better to buy juices and soft drinks in returnable bottles. After
customers empty the bottles, they return them to the stores. The manufacturers of the drinks collect
bottles, wash them, and then fill them again. The energy that is necessary to make new bottles is saved. In
some parts of the world, returning bottles for money is a common
practice
. In those places, the garbage
dumps have relatively little glass and plastic from throw-away bottles.
The third step being environmentally sensitive is to recycle. Spent motor oil can be cleaned and used
again. Aluminum cans are expensive to make. It takes the same amount of energy to make one aluminum
can as it does to run a color TV set for three hours. When people collect and recycle aluminum (for new
cans), they help save one of the world's precious resources.
