> gifted kids or the ones from religious zealots will all live in their bubbles
If you’ve read this thread, then you know most homeschoolers dispute that they live in a bubble.
> Sure, let's make homeschooling the norm, problematic kids will be the only ones who fill the ranks of public schools
I don’t see anyone in this thread advocating that. But I did see several arguing that homeschooling should be illegal. And homeschooling is illegal in countries like Germany, Sweden, and the Netherlands. Part of homeschoolers’ outspokenness against the usual tired stereotypes is because there’s real risk of governments prohibiting home education even in situations when it would be superior to the local public schools.
