I certainly don't hate home schooling. Knock yourself out.

Growing up I knew two kids who were homeschooled and both were ignorant weirdos with legitimately stupid mothers.
I'm almost positive they are both in prison at best and working at a gas station at worst.
I'm sure there are a lot of intelligent, competent parents homeschooling their well adjusted kids but I doubt that is the norm, and it certainly isn't the rule.

My nieces and nephews were all home schooled.
With the exception of the weird ass religious indoctrination they received (that didn't take very well it seems as none of them attend church as adults), they got a very good education.
The oldest owns his own company that develops and maintains some kind of program for encrypting RF communication and just finished closing a contract with Canada for their first responders and already has quite a few contracts to do the same with large US cities. BTW, he played soccer on his local HS team (he sucked though).
Youngest is still in HS (she was a very late in life surprise for my sister) and she plays on the local HS basketball team.
They all seem to be quite well adjusted, except for the oldest but he would have been a hopeless geek even if he went to public school. Doesn't seem to hurt him much, he makes a shit ton of money.

I'd love to home school my daughter but I have to, you know, WORK so I can buy her shit like food and clothes and toys.

I had a dream. It was an incredible dream. When I awoke, I had a huge mess to clean up.

Its a good idea and one that will grow. I have news for you home school haters, it is a trend that will grow large enough to become the norm, not the exception.
No way in hell. For that to happen would mean the reversal of a whole assload of trends that simply won't be reversed. You actually think we will be returning to the days where a family of 3-5 can get by on one parent's income, allowing the other to stay home and home school?

Michigan has a couple experimental school districts that are entirely home schooled via net based educational programming.
The savings is enormous and will eventually become a model for a nation wide system. The teachers unions will prolly arm themselves and start suicide bombings soon.

My sister worked for many years that they home schooled, as did her husband.
She was actually a school teacher (sorta ironic or at least weird for a home schooler) and worked from 7-3 weekdays, and he drove a truck and worked nights. The kids had "classes" with both of them, some in the morning and some in the evening till they got older (12 or so)...then they had "mentors" that they would study and work with during the day, and did their book studying in the early evenings.

I could see it working out if the parents had different work schedules like this, but this is the exception not the norm.
