Of course there are situations in which the parents are unable to homeschool. This does not make them any worse a parent. Even if you do homeschool, it's not uncommon to take some external classes as you get into the higher grades. I'm also not saying the that the parents need to write the math books they use, nor do they need to grow all food. But they certainly should feed their children with the food bought at the store. School is used to much as a day care and catch all. If it was more of a couple hours hours a week learning only math at school and at home parents actually took the time to teach virtue and discipline it would better.
