If a student has a particular strength in math for instance, and his/her parents are homeschooling, then should they focus on math? Should they spend extra time on math, and fully develop that strength? Should they instead try to focus on the weakest areas? What if the strength is in something for which career opportunities are less certain, like painting, or dance, or music? Should every subject be given equal time, regardless of the student's strengths, allowing their abilities to dictate their progress? Should the core subjects be covered, and after that the student decides how to spend extra time, thus making learning more enjoyable?
I'm not sure how to balance specialization, well-roundedness, and learning enjoyment.
