Homeschooling as a right, and a needed practical alternative
I know everyone on HN is big into the whole math, stem, good college thing, but out here in Central Time, all you really need to have a nice life is to not be an ass.<p>Most schools (even some of the good ones) turn kids into asses through the &quot;Lord of the Flies&quot; effect.  Think about it: You have inexperienced little people with underdeveloped judgement spending most of their waking hours for most of the year with other little people who are in the same boat.<p>And people call this socialization!  &quot;I do not think that means what you think it means.&quot;<p>If kids had a little more contact with mature, self-actualized people growing up, they wouldn&#x27;t have as much baggage to work through in adolescent&#x2F;adult life.
