Further left than me?! LOL. Actually I don't think I'm that far to the left, only in comparison to some of our pals here <g>.

Re reasons for home schooling, I guess I put it a little too strongly. A little. Here is a site I just googled:

http://nces.ed.gov/pubs2006/homeschool/parentsreasons.asp

Parents provided a broad range of reasons for homeschooling their children, which were coded into 16 different categories. In 1999, three reasons for homeschooling were the most frequently cited: 49 percent of homeschooled students had parents who cited the ability to give their child a better education, 38 percent had parents who cited religious reasons, and 26 percent had parents who cited a poor learning environment at school (Bielick, Chandler, & Broughman 2001).
