And most of that fighting goes away when parents assume the responsibility of teaching their own children. This particular responsibility is presently only available to those who build their lives around the idea of a nuclear family and home schooling. I used to think that one had to achieve some middle/upper class financial status to make this viable (and having money does make this easier), but I've seen poor families manage home schooling quite well. This requires community (a church with others who are home schooling, a home school co-op) because the kiddos will age out of your ability to teach rather quickly (10-12 and suddenly they're doing math you haven't touched in 2 decades, or more involved history or literature that the average parent may not be equipped to teach well, or electives that fall outside the experience of the parents).
