I don't know if I would put Homeschooling on the level of religious schooling, but that homeschooling missed out on some of the benefits of public/private schools.

For parents you don't have to teach the kids on the same level as public. I've seen cases in which homeschooled children are generally a few levels smarter than what they teach at private/public schools due to how much they've learned at home and at the pace the parents teach. Plus, not every teenager who leaves school actually gets anything from it. You often get those teenagers who didn't learn anything and spend all their time on Facebook or wasting their life.

I'm personally against religious home/public/private teaching to be in general. But if the parents take care of what the education is at home and teach them actual facts then I don't see it as much as a problem. For every con of homeschooling there is also a pro. A con being no social interaction but a pro is not being bullied. I can't really fault a parent/carer who is willing to personally give what's best for their kid(as long as it's not religious, sure).
You most likely know more about this subject than I do anyway.
