[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What’s your point OP? This thread demonstrates that a wide variety of people choose homeschooling.  It’s like asking why wealthy people send their kids to public school...[/quote]

This is OP. You clearly have reading comprehension issues because you did not understand my question. I asked why uneducated Americans homeschool. I know there educated people out there who homeschool but it's not what I wanted to discuss. [/quote]

Ahhh...so you just wanted to begin a thread for the purpose of bashing a certain group of people without hearing positive comments about homeschooling parents. [/quote]

OP clearly has underlying issues and I’m beginning to think troll.[/quote]

Disagree completely. It’s a valid, perplexing question. I guess the answer just is that stupid people make stupid decisions. 
[/quote]

Exactly. It’s not trolling when most of the thread is on the same page. [/quote]

Most of the thread is on the same page: spouting misconceptions, generalities and misinformation as if they are facts. Most of you don't know any or enough homeschoolers to even speak on the subject. The reality is that there are as many reasons for homeschooling as there are homeschoolers.

Do you think that homeschooling parents, especially the educated ones, judge parents who send their kids to traditional schools? [/quote]

Why are you chiming in?  This is about *uneducated* homeschool parents.  You can't argue that there aren't states where communities of nutjobs have sprung up to unschool their kids where basically nothing structured is happening.  Child abuse.[/quote]

Child abuse is typically considered to be physical and or sexual abuse or neglect. Not providing structure isn't child abuse. You are using your values to judge someone.

America is a great country in which its citizens are guaranteed many rights and freedoms set forth in our Constitution. Each American has to be tolerant of differences, because (I'm certain) each of us has values, beliefs and practices which definitely offend someone else. Would you like your rights to be taken away, for example, for being a judgemental twit?[/quote]

Preventing a child from receiving a decent K-12 education is abuse.

I guess the majority of U.S. parents are abusers, because they can't afford good privates![/quote]
