Should homeschooling be banned?

[Rin-chan]

I'm going to say no, even though I find a lot of homeschooled kids creepy and I wouldn't homeschool my children myself. 

My roommate's nephew is currently being homeschooled.  The elementary school in Bethlehem, PA that her nephew would've been going to has a 30% literacy rate.  They can't afford to move and want their child to get a better education.  So, they've enrolled him in an online charter school thing.  It comes with a computer and computer programs and every so often her nephew goes to meetings with other kids in his online classes. 

Considering that 70% of the elementary school he would've been going to can't read, this is a much better alternative.

I don't approve when parents themselves without teaching degrees teach the children.  I do approve, however, in the case of my roommate's nephew.
