> too secular and were teaching "sinful" sciences like evolution
Kids shielded from this kind of actual reality tend, IMHO, are never really then equipped for going out into society of the workplace, where teaching evolution is small change compared to the kind of "sinning" going on all about.
Admittedly some public school systems are just a mess, and private schools are out of the budget for most folks, so home schooling becomes the default. However, unless there's a social education alongside lots of other kids, this is just kicking problems down the road.
