I think school is socially a great thing. Obviously it's much easier for kids to meet piers at school than if they are home schooled. Not to mention, it's not like EVERYTHING school are teaching is bullshit. 1+1=2 no matter how you look at it, so it's not like classes like science or math are brainwashing your kids. If you do want to educate your kid yourself, they can still go to school and you can still pass on the messages you want them to learn. I had a great time in high school, I would have never wanted to be home schooled, that would have sucked. At the end of the day, being able to socialize is a huge part of life, more so than advanced math or science or most of the shit you learn in school. You can do all this stuff you're talking about even if your kid is in school. Why wouldn't they be able to read one book a week if they were in school? It's not like they are in they're last year of med school and have 20 hours of homework a week, it's the American education system for christ sakes, how hard could it be?
How old are you?
