The issue here is that parents would not be taking their kids out of school to homeschool them if they thought that certified teachers and institutions were doing a better job than they could. A degree in teaching unfortunately does not qualify every person to teach every child in every circumstance, and parents should have the choice of taking their child out of a less-than-optimal environment without having to stop their lives and go get a 4 year teaching degree, just like you and I should not have to get a degree in CPA to do our own taxes.
Parents should have the choice
