The author quotes Elizabeth Bartholet, a prof at Harvard Law School, who thinks that parents should have very limited rights in trying to homeschool their children. She thinks that children must go to public schools in order to learn tolerance. Her own arrogance, bigotry and intolerance against Christian parents is evident.

My experience teaching college — home schooled student are best. They have confidence, knowledge well beyond their peers, and can write well.

Asians are next behind homeschooled.

This lockdown has opened some eyes. Many parents are discovering just how much their primary kids DON’T know.

I know of two families who are NOT sending their kids back, as they have taught them more at home these past two months than the system has done in a few years.

Admittedly, they have not been bullied, read to by a drag queen, or ridiculed for clothing, but you can’t have it all.

My two boys who did a couple of years in the K12 online
home school program are on their college Deans List.

The point is the teachers unions fear change that would
make them compete for students.

They object to charter schools too, and home schooling
is a job security and pay issue.

I note, they can’t indoctrinate home schoolers. This is
why so many Christians home school.

What could this woman possibly be going on about for twenty paragraphs?

In my religion, education of kids is the parents’ responsibility. That’s just common sense. Carting them off to get brainwashed by the communists in the public school system is just neglect and abuse

Who cares what Elizabeth Bartholet thinks? Only other people like her.

I have 2 virtual home schooled grandchildren The eldest who was a high schooler had to fight to catch up to the curriculum. She has become someone who reads everything.. The youngest is in the first grade. When she gets together with kids in her age group they would follow her in battle. She is charismatic.

For the past 5-10 years, every time they announced a spelling bee competition, the winner was home schooled. What a Surprise! Not.

...surveys of homeschoolers show that a majority of such families (by some estimates, up to 90 percent) are driven by conservative Christian beliefs...

If these folks held JEWISH beliefs; the uproar of NAZI!!! would be heard across the land!

She’s sounding pretty desperate, worried that the WuFlu lockdown might lead to more home schooling. The lying leftist zealots who sold the extreme hype got what they wanted, i.e., to destroy Trump and the economy he brought. The unintended consequence might be that the teachers unions and public school head counts might be negatively impacted. So ha ha, Erin; you lose.
