To many parents are completely unaware of what their kids are learning, and need to, to become sucessful in lifes everchanging environment.
Also, back in JHS when we graded each others papers, we learned an element of other's conceptual approaches, qualification of judgment, and the concept of someday being an adult teaching something was quite a needed shock.
If I had the time or inclination to home school my kids, I would do it.

I do not need the public schools to launch their social engineering program in MY family. Truth is, the public schools have demonstrated marginal competence at teaching. I am not ready to let them bring the same degree of expertise into my home family dynamics.
