    Some public schools absolutely are shit. And we’ve got a wealth of propaganda invested in selling “education as a luxury service” rather than a public utility.

    The marketing strategy of homeschool sellers is to convince people that working with your PTA is a waste of time and only you know how to adequately teach your kids.

    I’ve worked hard to overcome being homeschooled and actively try to educate myself

    Ideally, education isn’t some singular struggle, but a group effort. I’ve learned more and faster in small groups with a talented TA and enthusiastic professor than in any independent study.
