I understand that in the frontier days homeschooling was necessary but maybe its time we took away parental rights of brainwash the same way we took away parental right to rape.

Homeschooling is amazing.
For your information, homeschooling comes in many formats, one of which is this: as part of the public education system. In other words, the charter homeschool I utilize is part of the local High School district. We have standards to which we must teach, and the same state tests are given. COULD I teach them the Bible? Yes, I would be allowed to do so, as it is an important part of world culture (2 billion Christians worldwide). DO I? No, I do not.
This semester, for example, the 10th grader I homeschool has the following classes:
Geometry
English
World History
Biology
French
PE
Not much different than any other kid, except she has gone from straight Fs when I started teaching her to straight As now. Her test scores, for example, went from "below basic" in English to "Advanced." Go spend a few days as a volunteer in today's public High Schools and then come tell me that you'd put a kid you love in that environment. Parents no longer parent, and the kids show it. Most of them are horrible and care nothing about education and only about drugs, sex and video games. The social environment is putrid.
Do a google search and you'll find that homeschool creates better students who are actually BETTER socialized than their peers. And get used to this fact: today's homeschoolers are tomorrow's leaders. Your traditionally schooled kids will have names for my homeschooled kids: Boss.
