Pros: decentralized, individualized, all the cool punk buzzwords.

Cons: drastic educational inequality (rich parents have lots more money to homeschool), bad/abusive parents, lack of accountability, lack of social cohesion.

Thoughts?

    I think there could be some middle ground with smaller classes, less rigid schedules and more non-professional teachers. Probably also more online or digital edutainment stuff to replace frontal classes held by full time teachers.

    Regular home-schooling like we have now seems more often like a kind of child abuse in very religious households, but of course other better examples exist as well and I am under no illusion about the child abuse that regular school often is.
