[Mike Lorrey]

Why would you say that?

David Lubkin has commented on his experience homeschooling his daughter
on this list in the past. From all of my friends who homeschool their
kids, it doesn't seem that hard. Nor do you have to be educated
yourself. Many folks recruit friends with expertise to help out,
particularly if they have their own business. The kids intern with the
business, and the business owner gets free or low cost labor.

It is the argument of tyrants; it is the creed of slaves."
