Then the parents will just home school and the kids will grow up with the same views and not learn critical thinking. Better to keep them in the system I think.

Although anecdotal, I studied in the public system and I would say that most of my classmates did not really learn critical thinking, neither from school or a different source.

I guess it depends on the education system in question, as some of them, like mine, are more focused on memorizing facts instead of questioning them.

Home schooling is not legal in Germany.
