Many states have laws against that. A parent can teach a child but they aren’t allowed to have someone else teach their child. For example here in ND that is the law. They finally changed the law and you can have a music teacher teach music but it cannot be the entire day of school.
It was pretty simple. You just found like-minded parents in the community, and you hired a teacher that fit your needs. It's a great system. No wonder so many states outlawed it. I bet there are loopholes for homeschoolers though.
Admittedly, if we close the public schools, then kids won't be fed propaganda by the state. Worth it...?
Back in the day, parents would get together and hire a teacher for their children. The teachers were directly employed by the parents.
You know that isn't a bad idea

Interesting. "Land of the Free." Not for a long, long time now. We just haven't noticed for some reason.
Definitely a "By the people, for the people" mentality. I very much like the sound of that! It does require a people with like-thinking minds however.
