This crisis has exacerbated many of the problems that already existed in the school system: increased spread of disease, poor social engagement (bullying/racism), non-inclusive approach to history and politics and failure to teach things to form their own framework of values and think critically (or involve their parents in that process). None of these problems are new, it's just becoming more socially acceptable to homeschool. Good for you for making the right choice for your children. Having your spouse at home with them will be ideal.

Can't say I particularly agree with you. Things like an "[inclusive] approach to history and politics", and everything that implies, are a large part of why we pulled our kids out of public schools.

I fully respect other adults' right to hold their own opinions. I am not a fan of high-jacking education of children as a way to push those views, which has unfortunately become common place from both ends of the political spectrum.
