MrZ asked: I think there are several reasons. I know there are several possible answers to this question. I think most will revolve around: (1) religion, (2) that public schools do not do a good job of teaching; (3) that parents are scared of the influence of other students; (4) that parents are trying to protect their kids from anything negative (ie: overprotecting their kids). I taught public school for 30 years, and am a strong proponent of public education. I know many pro’s and con’s of public schools, but I think many parents are perhaps misinformed or misguided or led by media reports to think that public schools are somehow very bad. I think they are very good, and offer many opportunities not available to the homeschooled kids. I do not care if you agree or disagree, I just would like to hear some truthful reasons from home-schooling parents. Others may also join in. I will make no judgement of you, I just want to know the answer to this question.
Terri, I did not ask you to defend yourself, or make fun of my question. I asked a very sincere question, and all you do is defend yourself and mock me, but you never answered! So I reported you, and I hope they take your question off. I’m also surprised so few people would choose not to answer this question, and instead react so defensively. I’m not judging you at all, I made that clear. Stop judging me. Give me the truth, please.
Terri, I meant take your ANSWER off, not question.
