Most families can't afford to homeschool because they need two incomes. Of the remainder, most moms are incapable of homeschooling. If you want to homeschool your kids, marry the right woman after getting a university degree in a high-paying career field.

My grandlings are home-schooled. The formal courses are laid out on the 'puter so the kid goes through each learning step. The computer program grades the kid. Mommas have no real work to do at all.
For reality's sake, I see home-schooling as the wave of the future. Oh, and my grandlings are acing it, and do not have to put up with groid battles in the classroom, nor do they have to go miles each way every day in buses or on foot in any weather, or be delivered and picked up every day by... mom.
Just like the Naughty Driver's Post-Ticket Remedial Computer Course you gotta take when you get nailed for speeding, there is no fargin way to fake or beat the computer system. The tests are timed.
Oh. Both my son and my DIL work. And their two homeschooling kids are doing exceptionally well.
Bottom line: It is CHEAPER for a family to have homeschooled kids. Think: School clothes, ferrying them back and forth, yada.
Hope this helps.

I haveta put an oar in (at least for Floriduh) to clear up the above. I'll just do it with a cut and paste.Most families can't afford to homeschool because they need two incomes.

House Bill 1, a major expansion of Florida's Family Empowerment Scholarship is law:
It removes income restrictions and enrollment limits, allowing essentially any Florida household with a student in elementary, middle or high school to receive a school voucher containing the amount that their local public school would have received if they had attended.
Folks who have their kids homeschooled NO LONGER PAY PUBLIC SCHOOL TAX. They pay the same amount to the homeschooling program.

CHAPTER TWO:
"Well now, i don't see how willingly poisoning the mind and voluntarily submitting to slavery would be beneficial."
Getting a degree (I will use mine in Electronic Engineering) is not "willingly poisoning the mind and voluntarily submitting to slavery"
If, after getting your mind "willingly poisoned" with a shitload of every-day useful knowledge about how the universe (and your fucking computer) works is "submitting to slavery"... How would you maintain your ability to post here?
Some poisoned slave (me) helped create something called "micro-channel". As you read this, my old poisoned mind happily tells you:
"You're welcome -- to be able to read this and respond to it if you wish -- due to the fact that some people learned shit in college so they could expand on what they learned... and then added more to make your life better."
These things that were never before seen by the human race (eg: microchips and beyond) got to be seen and used (by you) ONLY because some fool went to college to learn the esoteric shit you have never seen.
If it helps, there is a plethora of courses taken by many so that they can say they "have a degree". Even if it is just in "Fashion Design", "Art History", "Ethnic Studies"<-- All TINS degrees.
Do you think that the rockets landing in reverse back on the launch pad were designed by slaves with poisoned minds? If your mind is not poisoned, can you please tell me if you could design a way around back EMF in simple electric motors?
Just askin'...
