With homeschooling on the rise, will the responsibility largely fall on women?

Of course, it is a big yes. First, I would like to explain what is homeschooling. Homeschooling is a progressive movement widely around the country as well as worldwide, in which the parents educate their children at their home instead of sending them to traditional public or private schools. Most of the families choose homeschooling because of the dissatisfied educational progress in the traditional schools, different religions and many more but in the brief, the children do not pursue education in the traditional schools.
In this method, the children should pick any of their desired time to study either in the morning as in traditional schools or in the evening. Most the requirements for this homeschooling varied from place to place. This does not require the parents to be educated in the traditional schools. In most of the families, women are the one who stays in the home with the children. If her children`s progresses were not good, she will be cornered for that. Since, her spouse, the father comes home everyday in evening spend time with the children. But wife is the one who is blamed for everything.
Definitely the homeschooling method will put all the responsibilities over the mother, until and unless the husband quit the job and take care of all the household chores. This homeschooling creates social isolation among the children. If they grew up and remain isolated, this will also pressure the woman in home, that she had not spent enough time with her children.

At last, I end up by saying that, the homeschooling method will pressure the women in home. This can be reduced, if and only if the father shares equal responsibility in the everything about their children.
