Home schooling's rise from fringe to fastest-growing form of education

SO you want parents to give their kids a worse education in the hope it will help other kids? As a father (and a single parent home educator) not bloody likely.

Also, my kids would not have done as well at school - they would have been a lot more like the the other kids, so would not have improved all that much.

Not in the US, but some things are the same here in the UK, and in Sri Lanka where we lived for much of my kid's lives.

Yes, your argument shows my point very well, thank you.

(Consider that public schools wouldn’t be a “worse education” if resources weren’t funneled away by private schools and home schooling.)
