> and you ask people of theirs.

In my experience, when dealing with someone who works from an intersectional framework, this isn't something they tend to do. Maybe I've just talked to the wrong people, though. Perhaps I ought to broaden my horizons some!

That would be wonderful. I am hoping that many people realize the wonders of homeschooling during the stay-at-home stuff.

> In my experience

Yeah, IME too, most people don't do this, and to be charitable, it's because they haven't realized it's a thing to do. I promote it, because at this time I really believe in this theory and method, and would very much like more people to use it.

> That would be wonderful.

I'm hearing you say "I am supportive of this" but not "I support this". For example, is this an issue that informs your voting, and what other issues take precedence (aka, are more important)?

  • > is this an issue that informs your voting

    My views pretty much depart from the mainstream, so if you mean that is discourages me greatly when I vote, then yes.

    • Okay. Asking a different way.

      Do you take any actions to support other people becoming more capable of homeschooling?
