Education in Britain - Homeschooling

non governmental schooling is getting popular and as in 1977 only 1000 families are homeschooling in 1995 there was more than 20000, home schooling is getting popular in UK and around the world.
some of the advantages of home schooling is that the kids are under parents watch and can be taught the values of the house, the disadvantage is that the kids do not have practical experience by socialising with other kids in the public schools.
homeschooling does not mean that the level of education is less in fact there are some studies shows in some cases students are more productive at home than in school especially with the problems that we have in schools these days

History of Halloween

the celtic Irish tribes believed that there is a day in the year where the season of life meets the season of death and that day was the end of summer 31st of Oct., the priests where customs to scare the evil spirits and make bonfire as well.
The Pob in his attempt in the eight century to get red of this tradition announced that a day to red all the evil spirit is the 1st of November and called it All Hallow day. people added to it and called it All hallow eve and the name started to be Halloween sense then.
During the potato famine in 19th century when most Irish farmers immigrated to USA the Halloween started to be popular.
people believe that by giving candy and sweets to people they will prey to them so they do not have bad souls and spirits.

Symmetrical Families

The family in UK is different than the traditional family in my country because it is typical difference in the Western culture and the Eastern culture which affects the marriage.
now a days more and more traditional families are having both parents work so the traditional role of men and women are changing because both work now.
this means that the house hold job is being divided between the two.
some times it is hard to understand the Eastern culture because only recently jobs are available for both men and women.
