1. The lack of socialization thing is bullshit and a myth. Show me an isolated homeschooled child and I'll show you twice as many isolated public school kids.

2. Did you know that some kids can't read until age 10? It just doesn't click in their brain -- the same way math didn't click in my brain until I was 20. If a kid who couldn't read at that age was in school he would be labeled retarded and held back. At home, that kid could put reading aside and focus on other things they're good at, like math or music or woodworking or chemistry or fuck, I don't know, sheep stacking. (Where you stack sheep.) No labels, no pressure, no treatment as inadequate. The "strict control" you're talking about would get the kid forcefully taken out of an environment that let them learn at their own pace.

3. The first amendment gives people the right to teach their children about religion. That was illegal in the country where my parents were born. I was given a religious education, one that told me to question, interrogate, observe and come to my own conclusions about my faith. Religious people probably don't have the same views as you; that doesn't mean they're wrong or that you're wrong. All children grow up eventually and can make decisions for themselves. Until then, if they come from a loving home and aren't running around committing hate crimes, who are we to say what their parents should teach them about faith?

Dude, most religious people who homseschool their kids for religion are the kind of bigots who indoctrinate and have a cult-like mentality. They don't teach to question, interrogate and observe--just be obedient and hate people Not Like Them.
