      Homeschooling, not just for religious nuts anymore.
      Let's face it, public schools suck. I think most of us are familiar with the why's and how's they suck, as well as the reasons they aren't really getting better. Homeschooling is all about how hard (and smart) the parents are willing to work. A clear advantage if you have a parent that can stay home to work with the kids. Most of us don't have that opportunity though. We have to work to make ends meet. Private schools are somewhere in the middle. More money than public schools, comes from the parents pockets.
      To me the clear solution is to not have kids in the first place. Of course, birth control ain't 100% effective, so it's a risk. Trust me on this ... and don't point this thread out to my kids...
