"Home Schooling" is a socially destructive FARCE (force) corroding the USA. It now inches dangerously forward, into a nationwide spigot of "online" Home School crap, being pumped into homes near you. Contributing to production of a strata of (unknowingly) ignorant, vulnerable, ignorant, one-dimensional, mal-adjusted young adults, who have to learn, at age 18, everything all over again. 

They go into the world, unaware that there really isn't an imminent "Rapture"- and that they actually haven't been chosen to survive the Apocalypse--and that the Bible they thought was a literal history/science book is actually well-worn allegory, and was written by goat herders who didn't know what molecules or stars were.

It is based primarily in Christian religious fanaticism and parental insecurity/fear. It plays to the terrified parents, afraid their children might actually have daily contact with people unlike them. Keeping their children away from reality, non-"believers", poor people, Muslims, agnostics, riff-raff, will produce a more pure, better human being. 

They can also, in the "home school" environment, control much of the curriculum--doing things like making sure their precious little Christian cherubs don't read "Harry Potter" demon books, and assuring  they never see any mention of sex, profanity or violence. Heaven forbid. So to speak. 

They can sneak in anthropological gems like the absolute, literal veracity of the "Noah Flood" / rainbow. The can learn about dinosaurs playing with Jesus, God flying back (from the sky, I suppose) on a white horse, resurrecting dead bodies, and they can go on stunning field trips to the Ark Experience in Ohio. Where there are cabins for dinosaurs. But not kangaroos. 

Now available in yet another fake milieu, the "online school" - we are plagued with this horrendous "Home School" nonsense being marketed nationwide, online. A generation of religious stooges, "educated" online, by their high-school graduate, christian fanatic mother, who has never read a real book. At home. Oh Boy.
