Sure, there are people in situations where very hard choices would have to be made in order to homeschool. I guess it’s a matter of priorities.

There are some, though, that use “circumstances” as an excuse because they are afraid to try or simply don’t want to make the sacrifices necessary to do so,

and you know that’s the truth.

I was a professor and eventual departmnet chair at the Savannah College of Art and Design in the 90’s. Even then you could pick out the home schooled students without asking. They ere universally focused, prepared and mature in their approach to learning at a time when we had to reorganize our curriculum to make remedial courses in writing and communication to fill the gaps left in the shortcomings of those publicly educated students. From this perspective alone I am a huge fan of home schooling.

It is ALWAYS a matter of priorities. Nearly anyone can homeschool if they're willing to make the sacrifices that are necessary to do so, and anyone can send their children to public school if they're willing to make THOSE sacrifices.
