Public schooling without audits is just as likely, if not more so, to result in child abuse as well.

  In which country are public schools allowed to operate without any audit nor oversight?

    I didn’t say any countries like that existed? Though it wouldn’t shock me. OP said that “homeschooling without audits is child abuse”, and I was pointing out that that is disingenuous since a theoretical public school without audits would be even worse for children. I agree that unaudited homeschooling can result in abuse, but the solution is not to ban homeschooling. It is to create a structure that supports an individual’s right to care for their children. That makes sure the child reaches certain age-dependent markers while giving the parent (and thus, the child) the freedom to explore the world how best suits them.

      Your comment read a lot more like you were making a factual comparison rather than a theoretical argument…but I do agree that if schools were to theoretically not be audited then that would be bad. I do find the second half of your post a lot more compelling though. That’s what you should have lead with in your earlier comment. :)
