Someone from my work fell down the rabbit hole of homeschooling - her spelling and grammar was poor and she was (is) into 'alternative' therapies etc.
Each to their own but I do feel that children need to be around their peers and learning a set curriculum. By taking her 12 year old out of school, she has removed many career roles from him and limited his future (she'd argue that she's freed him, no doubt).
By all means home school but there should be a basic set of facts taught - not that antibacterial oils kill viruses (for example - a real home work she set)

- wink 4y agoI had a teacher one year in elementary school whose use of my native language was kinda bad, my mom was kinda furious that people were taken for these positions (I guess math would've been fine, but not the native language). So not sure your point holds, except for homeschooled kids if the parents can't spell they're stuck with those teachers for longer than a year. FWIW, I don't have a bone to pick with the public school system in general, although I didn't enjoy it very much in the last few years. The thing is that I doubt homeschooling (if it was allowed here) would have improved a lot.
