Tbh, I always thought that homeschooling was for those who couldn't go to school for whatever reason (too remote area, disability, etc) or for super religious people who disagreeded with the curriculum, but nowadays I see more and more middle class people around me getting interested in homeschooling their kids to avoid sending them to schools which are supposedly crushing their spirits and not teaching them them anything but test preparation and what not. I assume this last group is giving their children fairly good education, but I still don't particularily support it when it comes to society as a whole? When fairly well-off people start leaving the public school system, it suggests that something is not working, but if the system is faulty, the solution is fixing it not fleeing from it. I understand it on a personal level, I really do, but on a social scale, growing popularity of homeschooling is not really a good thing. It will always create inequality, because some parents will never be able to homeschool their children for financial, educational or other reasons. And those who need good education the most will be again left with less attention and care.

/sorry for the tangent, OP..?

I saw both types. Homeschoolers that were the crazy religious types and the crunchy granola types. Honestly, I suspect one crunchy granola mom just didn't like getting up early. Another seemed to think that her special snowflake kid was too special and precious for the school to manage to know how to educate. I find myself wondering how they will ever manage in college or in...a job where the work is boring and routine.

Same. I don't care what people choose to do here on an individual level. I think the best option for educating a child is very situation-dependent. People have their reasons for what they choose and I don't know them and it's not my business. On a societal level, however, I want people to aggressively support public schools because it's the only viable option most people have and it's in everyone's best interest that most kids get a good education and grow into competent adults. It's impossible to educate a bunch of people en masse while perfectly tailoring everything to each student's individual needs all the time, but we could be better at meeting the needs of the majority, at least.
