On the contrary, homeschooling has been widely embraced by the fringe religious sects. Raising kids in a bubble in order to better indoctrinate them into religious extremism is their tactic. Few others embrace homeschooling like that. Sure, other people could. But they don't.The results are kids who enter the adult world never having been exposed to secular thinking (the view of most people) and often end up as sexual bigots, against gays and women alike.
You've already made these assertions. And I've already challenged you provide evidence to support it. Do you have any? Just repeating the assertions doesn't make them true.
The same kids are often woefully ignorant of science and medicine.
Again, according to what evidence? Cpwill's link shows that homeschooled kids score significantly better in math and science on average.
But the main thing they do not learn growing up is how to function around people with different opinions. That's what happens when you're raised in a bubble surrounded only by people who all agree with each other.
What evidence do you have that home-schooling parents aren't deliberately exposing their children to a variety of opinions?
All I see here is a lot of assumptions and stereotyping with no hard evidence to support it.
