Some parents are starting to home school because of stupid zero-tolerance policies. They realize that they have normal, healthy kids and they don't want their lives screwed up by some idiotic school administrator. Too many stupid people have too much power to destroy too many lives.

One mother (who was a teacher) was interviewed a couple of years ago on why she homeschooled and she said something to the effect that she had a normally rebellious kid and no way was she putting him into a Florida public school.

She was smart. She probably saved her kid and herself a lot of grief.
