Most homeschooling parents want to develop the full personality of their children that is intellectually, emotionally, social, physical and ethical.
Intellectually parents can choose the curriculum which suits the child's learning style and interest. In the homeschool environment the pace of learning can also be adjusted.
Emotionally a child feels secure within the relationship with their parent and as the parent knows the child they will be able to guide their emotional development and IQ.
Children need to be parented into socially acceptable behaviour. Good manners and ethics are being taught at home. Parents include their children in their day to day living which means they come into contact with people of all walks of life. They can also help their children in making good choices with regards to friendships.
Parents can choose the sport and physical activities which suit the child and is needed for their development especially at specific developmental stages. The homeschool environment is also safe and a child can develop without the threat of bullying.
Parents can choose the curriculum which aligns with their values, informally transferring ethical values while learning.
