Ah yes, the horror of setting your own schedule, of knowing what your child is being taught, of not having to participate in an endless lineup of fundraisers, of having the freedom to take a trip anytime, anywhere without playing mother-may-I with school officials who think they have the authority to tell you you may not, of being able to tailor your child's curriculum to suit their individual learning style, of not having to hold your child back from learning something because "the rest of the class isn't going that fast and we have to accommodate the majority", of not hearing the school guidance counselor say, "yes, I know he is reading at a tenth grade level and doing math at a seventh grade level, but don't worry, the rest of the kids will catch up to him by third grade" like that was a good thing, of always knowing your child is not there should the local school go into lockdown.
The horror, I say.
"Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it." ~ Proverbs 22:6
