Home schooling is an extension of the misguided notion that "anyone can teach." That notion is simply wrong.

Clearly, this man has not met my sister in-law's. My brothers wife and my husbands sister are both teachers and they are both idiots.

My brothers wife is a flaming (oh how I wish literally!) liberal who tried to go up to and pet a buffalo in Custer State Park, South Dakota. According to her, "They are used to people!" and she pouted for hours after my brother told her get back in the $*!@&^# car before she got gored.

My husbands sister is just unbelievable. Here are some of her finer moments:

-She only recently discovered starfish are real creatures, she thought they were made up
-She was confused by a bread machine she got for a gift because, "how do I know I will like the bread it makes?" like there is a wizard inside who conjures the bread. She didn't realize she had to put ingredients in
-Only recently discovered people actually surf. Direct quote, "I thought people only did that in the movies!!"

She's done more stupid things, but those are just off the top of my head.

Everytime I have a conversation with either of these two I know that my future children will either be homeschooled or private schooled.

Sometimes it is the hardest lessons from which we learn the most. Unfortunately, your sister-in-law was denied an education.
