how loosely home schooling is. Now, I'm not saying that every home schooling situation is the same or bad or abusive, but if parents are going to take it upon themselves to school their children themselves, there should be *some* kind of minimal regulations to a.)Ensure that parents are capable of doing it themselves and have appropriate reasons for doing it (i.e. not using it to avoid having to parent and sending their kids to school) and b.)Children are actually completing some kind of reasonable educational curriculum and, well, learning the basics.
