The people who home school their children are the biggest self-loathers....NOT!

You're on to something here. A lot of people who say that Americans are ignorant because of bad education are overlooking something really important. It's that American education is better because so much education in the US is privately run. Our current president got a superior education from an American private university. To say that Harvard is a world class university would be an insult to Harvard.

At the moment my kids and in Panama with me but they're enrolled in a US run home schooling program. No other country in the world has anything that can begin to compare with American home schooling but the America bashers will never admit it.

Everyone -- you included-- knows that when we want say, a top notch Doctor to do brain surgery on a family member that we'd want one with a medical degree from John Hopkins and not one from Botswana U.

Yes. Botswana U. exists in a melieu with was not immersed in traditions of free inquiry. Harvard was formed in such a melieu. More's the pity that it seems to teach nihilism which treats the melieu which generated its own self as an object of loathing.

But until recently, America did have homeschooling on any significant level at all compared to its present state. For that you have to credit our government education system for so signally failing to meet the expectations of parents who were themselves satisfied with their own government-school education - and found that the same educational quality was no longer on offer in the government schools available to their children.
When your children return to the U.S., will they be satisfied to return to government school regimentation or will they attempt to stay with the homeschool curriculum they have become accustomed to?
