Truth: I used to be an advocate of homeschooling. The homeschoolers drove me to stop doing it. I'm not kidding about that--people like Weatherman. When it used to come up in the teacher's lounge and stuff, I used to defend homeschooling, and I'm not just saying that.

Why shouldn't they? Let me have one to two students and I can put every one of them into Harvard. Their academic success should be expected. The problem with most of them is they turn into assholes like you.
