The problem with home schooling is that the student is limited to the abilities of the parent(s) providing the instruction.
Not a bad deal at all if the parents are fairly intelligent, but consider... would you just pull any adult off the street and ask them to teach your child, even if there was a fairy tale world where there was zero chance they would abuse that child?
I sure as hell wouldn't, people are idiots.
Then why are you sending your kids to public schools? If you're a university graduate the odds are fairly good that you're more intelligent, and thus more likely to have a better intuitive grasp of how education works for your child and also have a more refined bullshit detector, than your kids teachers, for education majors are usually drawn from the lowest performing tiers on the SAT. Girls who go to university to major in Dance score higher than Education majors. Education majors (1442) are equidistant between construction workers (1274) and Liberal Arts students (1613).
