Good article on home schooling.
While reading "Memoirs of a Superfluous Man" today, I wondered if Albert Jay Nock might not have put his finger on one objection some have to home education.
Mr. Nock wrote (1943):
"Coercive collectivism was on its way throughout the Western world, and logically the first thing for the coercive collectivist State to do... would be to shut down firmly on all instruction which did not bear intensively on conditioning its children and young people to an unquestioning _ex animo_ acceptance of the State's will; and this would of course do away with even the sleaziest sort of education." [as opposed to what Nock called "training"]
