    Homeschooling should be a way for caring parents to help young people escape from the horrid institution that is school.

    As usual, right wing lunatics ruin everything.

      caring parents

      …implying families too poor to afford to live on a single income so one parent can stay home and homeschool the children do not care.

        I would argue that the statement “parents who homeschool are often caring parents” does not equal or even imply that “parents who are unable to homeschool due to work do not care about their kids.”

        We do have to be careful with our words but in this case, I think it’s a bit of a stretch to reach the implication you brought up.
