For Professors' Children, the Case for Home Schooling
Pannapacker, W. A.
Chronicle of Higher Education, v52 n17 pB14-B15 Dec 2005
The number of families who home school their children is growing between five and 15% per year and it is believed that home schoolers outperform their public-educated peers, though critics believe that home schooling is a form of religious fanaticism and a means of avoiding diversity. A professor explains how he and his wife, home school their three daughters, thus outlining the advantages of doing the same.
