About one-third of students who start university drop out. Difficulty staying there isn't a homeschooling problem. And every university grapples with students unprepared for college, almost all of whom graduated from public schools. No one needs to learn Latin grammar to get into university today, or to succeed in a professional career -- strange example to pick. The bar is actually quite low, have a look at the state exams for granting a high school diploma. We unschooled our kids (no curriculum) and just taught the basics -- reading, writing, arithmetic -- then let them choose what interested them and made those things available. They all passed the state diploma requirements exam on the first try, and scored in the higher percentiles. Homeschooling doesn't mean re-creating the classroom environment and following the school curriculum at home. And it doesn't doom your kids to low-end careers.
