Last I read...about 4% of school-age children were home schooled. It might be 5 or more by now.

To many ears, this sounds like a small number. But this is an enormous cultural revolution. This number represents 1-in-20 children, and half the number of children in private schools.
At this rate, the number of homeschoolers will equal the number of children in private schools within ten years. Together, they will represent 1-in-5 children.
And it’s possibe that the number of homeschooled children will grow exponentially, rather than linearly.
