This was the perfect opportunity to close the schools permenantly and pay the teachers to stay at home where they can never harm another child, but instead the republicucks are fighting over the minutiae of their operation.

I kind of understand, a lot of households no longer have stay-at-home moms and they have no option. But yea, homeschool if you can afford it. It would heal so many problems in todays society.

Federal government gives schools money per student.

Maybe they should be giving US money to hire private tutors in the home.

Those households, while unfortunate to not have that option, can speak to a neighbor who does have that option and is willing to bear the load of a second child to educate, in such a no-school system. Maybe toss the stay-at-home a couple bucks for their trouble.

If some are notably competent stay-at-home exists, maybe they can take on four or five. Get a small building put aside for it, if it won't be large enough in their house.

Since it is home schooling, we can call it a school-house. This stay-at-home paid to teach the half-dozen kids can then do so for even a handful more.

If this sounds like the existing system... You're wrong. First, I said "notably competent" and the current system does NOT prioritize that. And second, it's all elective and privately run, with each parent choosing exactly which teacher teaches their children.

They have the option. It would mean sacrificing their lifestyle. People used to live in houses 1/3 the current average size, own a single car.

Yep. Should have been pushing school voucher/choice programs this past year.

Seems more like the perfect opportunity for home schooling...until the swamp is worried kids won't get indoctrinated as much and they start regulating it out of existence.
