People with bad takes like that give homeschooling a terrible name, and make it easier for those regularly trying to dismantle it. It's an excellent tool for responsible parents, and a horrible weapon in the hands of zealots.

Destroy "optimize for engagement" social media, which harms everyone, and stop pretending like this is some problem that only harms children.
