I don't get it and I feel like their education will be very lacking.

I think Colin was homeschooled and he's quite bright so it's definitely possible to get a good education but I think overall it's going to be lacking in many ways and areas as well as not providing kids with the socializing they need. School is where kids learn to work and play with other kids and where they meet people unlike themselves.

Also where else will they learn about swirlies? -- nm - Baronnywise Sep 6, 05:57
Yes, the education isn't the weak spot. It's the interaction. -- nm* - volnelk Sep 6, 05:57 3
- There are a lot of co-ops and groups around here so the kids get social interaction. -- nm - kelly Sep 6, 06:03 2
  - I'm curious how that compares to them working together and being together for a whole school day. -- (edited) - Krusty Sep 6, 06:19
