arguments from article - >Pro-homeschooling: At school, you’re in danger of physical, emotional, and sexual abuse.

>Anti-homeschooling: Statistically, you’re in greater danger of all those things at home.

Sure, but the parents choosing to homeschool are either the ones abusing or not (obviously they could have an abusive uncle but the parents tend not to think of this) if Not, then its not a counter-argument because they know it's not and they do not know about the school. If abusing the know it and they might prefer to homeschool for that reason.

>Pro-homeschooling: Kids learn faster one-on-one; Bloom’s 2-sigma problem is undefeated.

>Anti-homeschooling: Kids with learning disabilities and neurodivergence can fall through the cracks without professional involvement.

many kids with learning disabilities and neurodivergence need more 1 on 1, and will also be more likely to get all the other negative school interactions that are arguments against schools.

I heard Elon Musk homeschooled his kids, anyway if you have the money, it's a status symbol.

Also about lousy school environment anecdotes going around here - I went to high school in Utah, where I heard a teacher tell the class that A.D meant After Noah, and B.C meant Before Christ. I WIN! Oh wait...
