Let's take a look at a few of them. For some parents, they have religious   reasons for home-schooling. The public school system does not have religious teachings, so these parents want to put religion into the children's daily school activities. This might include teaching religion-based courses rather than coursework that is taught in public schools. For some parents, they do not feel that their local school system offers their children the best learning opportunities. So they want to take matters into their own hands. This may be because the local school has low educational standards   or for some other reason the parents think it necessary to take their children out of the system.
