[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Many have realized they can provide a better education than their local public schools. Many elite universities look favorably upon homeschoolers (provided they’ve had a rigorous education, which can be done in many formats these days).[/quote]

Every single home schooling family I know did it for the above reason, not for religion, and for the cases I know about the students ended up very well educated indeed with admits to Cambridge (UK), UVa Nursing, VT Engineering, and T20 US universities.[/quote]

Why send your kids to college?  Why not continue to homeschool?

My own traditionally-schooled kid may skip college because of multiple tech job offers with some of the hottest AI companies (including arguably the hottest right now).[/quote]

Be careful with that. When there's an inevitable downturn, jobs will start asking for degrees, just because there will be too many candidates for the same post. I've seen this happen at every generation. This might happen when your child is 30, or 40, ie: an age where going back to school is less of an option (with a family to support). Just FYI.[/quote]
