They were in public school and the mother didn't want to homeschool.

Or did I read it differently than everyone else.

They had been homeschooled for a period of time and the mother wanted to send them to public school. The father was opposed to it.

Swanson and her husband had argued last week about Swanson’s decision to enroll the two children in school in Augusta — Gene Swanson wanted his wife to continue to home school the kids on the ranch while she wanted them to attend public school. The children attended their first classes at school in Augusta last week

she enrolled them in public school, not wanting to homeschool any further and he, apparently, disagreed with the choice.

Nope read it the same as you. Like I said, she was a ps mother at the time of the shooting and didn't sound like she had the desire to continue homeschooling. The father was sleeping elsewhere so this sounds more to me like thier were some big marital problems, homeschooling AT ONE TIME was the least of thier problems. I could see this being related to her homeschooling if she had continued against her wishes, but apparently she won the argument since they were attending ps. So why did she shoot them? Apparently not because she lost the argument and had to homeschool them against what she actually wanted to do.
