A better way to phrase the question might be “when are you going to personally supervise the education of your children”.

People are bought into the myth because:

a) they want their child to be in the organized activities; bands and sports teams, the musical, etc. Wear the uniform, get the accolades, be popular. Everyone is a legend in their own mind.

b) they want their child to be in the social scene and be “cool”. a) and b) come down to living vicariously through your kid. Making up for what you think you didn’t get quite right.

c) there’s the internal fear of the child being branded as an idiot by colleges because the child “skipped” school, when, in truth, forcing them to stay in the public school ensures that they will have an idiot’s education.

d) then the parent thinks about themselves having to be “teacher” for all those high school classes (i.e., go through the class again and have to actually know the answers). This is the deal breaker - no way, parents say. Isn’t that nice: because the parent is lazy, they’d let new world order be their child’s “teacher”. Of course, they can’t get it through their own head that they’d have the teacher guide for the materials. And they don’t have to “do” the learning - the child does that. Parents today think they have to work hand in hand with their child on every assignment. Instead of whipping the child into shape intellectually and ambition-wise, which would give them the ability to survive on their own, they baby the child, which makes the child dependent, helpless, unable to think for themselves and with no ambition or characteristic of responding to a challenge by throwing themselves into the struggle and making it on their own.

What gets me is all the countless hours I wasted in school in activities that had nothing to do with learning and served as an enormous distraction. My K-12 learning was perhaps 1% of my potential. All the accolades mean nothing to me now; they meant nothing the day after graduation. It was all a complete farce. I dropped those activities and never picked them up again. And, I was hopelessly ill-prepared for college and completely sick of school by the time I graduated, which caused immediate failure in college. It took me many wasted years to get on a good career path.

We have an idiotic mindset in this country - since the 1970’s - that one must go right from high school to a 4-year college, go full time, and finish in 4 years. Regardless of who pays or borrows to make it happen - and regardless of whether or not the child’s aptitude is well-suited to it. It’s one of the biggest scams of the century. Can’t figure out why the media is biased ? Why we have a Federal Reserve ? Why corporate America backs immorality and socialism ? Why your local Church backs leftism ? Why so-called Republicans don’t stand up for Biblically-compatible law and government ? This education scam is a key part of new world order strategy which results in all those things.
