A lot of the non-parents saying "I'll home school because the schools are just daycare" have an incredibly inflated notion of their own ability to teach. Major Dunning-Krueger effect. A few manage it and manage it well, but in my experience the more common outcome doesn't even qualify as daycare. I suggest that anyone repeating that talking point actually try to teach anyone anything before they assume they'll be the next Maria Montessori.
