Do you wish you were homeschooled? Are you homeschooling your kids now? Do you plan to homeschool in the future?

    I think homeschooling is the wrong answer to a real problem. Most schools are broken by design, they’re conceived to teach obedience and form docile workers, not to develop personality. But homeschooling can cut you from the realities of socializing with other kids… i’ve certainly met a few individuals who were homeschooled and had trouble adapting to social life.

    But why would a school have to be that bad? Can’t we have liberatory schools where children are treated as persons not objects?
