Weird soapbox to climb on while schools around the country are closed and millions of American kids have been completely abandoned.

Her descriptions of what homeschoolers do and what homeschoolers advocate for is completely divorced from reality as far as every homeschooler I have ever interacted with.
Here’s what’s happening: progressives see the warming of the American mind to the idea of homeschooling because half of America has been forced into it and lo and behold, it’s actually a lovely way of life for many. They are preemptively starting their assault on homeschooling.
I will have more to say eventually, but for now I am going to a homeschool play date that I have put together with four other families. Our children are the only ones receiving regular instruction and socialization in our entire county.
There are a lot of kids that we should be worried about, but they aren’t the ones in homeschooling families. They are the ones that have been completely abandoned by government schools. They would like you to forget that.
