Home education in Japan and the US are not comparable because Japanese parents are so different from ours. The term “intense” about education comes to mind.
Do you wonder if that will change in the US? I mean, parents home with their children, monitoring the lessons, seeing firsthand whether their child is bored, struggling, fast, slow in grasping concepts, etc., quality of education, variety of education, opportunity for parental input in real time...?
Sea Change coming. Maybe not from the 20% apathetic, druggie, drunkie, abusive, dontcare parents, but from the other 80%.
