"Well, you know I'm convinced not all parents are cut out for homeschooling. But this guy goes way too far to the other extreme."
You're exactly right! Not all parents are, in fact, cut out for homeschooling. Parents who care more about the perks that come with the second income than the best interest of their child(ren) are definitely not "cut out" for homeschooling.

It's simply bogus to imply that two income families aren't looking out for their child's best interest.
The FACT is that some parents don't have the knowledge, skills and abilities to homeschool not to mention the temperment. That has nothing to do with second incomes.
Snarky comments like yours turn people off to homeschooling. If you want to be an advocate for homeschooling, you should talk about the benefits, not berate those who choose a different path.
