I think there's a move towards home-schooling, at least here in Texas, partly due to the broken-ness of the public school system.
Sure, there's some great teachers, but there's also a large number who garner poor results year after year and are never fired. The problems of offensive parents and unruly medicated children are obviously pervasive.
The article doesn't even touch on why, with huge unemployment, and massively expensive college costs, children might as well give up hope of using education to attain the standard of living their parents were able to attain.
