I remember when the idea to home school erupted in the 90's - I knew many families that chose that route, although many had to enroll their children into public high school (something about the requirements from the state to graduate - I don't remember the details).
Garland's DOJ became very involved at the district level in the education system. The practices that became federally required are still in use.
It is a very very snarled mess - and there is no easy answer.
Thank you for the kind words. In actuality - you are a far better model for civil discourse.
