I think it's the handful of parents who put barely any effort in educating (or even parenting) that gives the rest of the homeschoolers a bad name. It's so much easier to blame homeschooling for a socially awkward and undisciplined child than it is to blame the parents.

Would you change the truancy guidelines that most schools now have? I'm not going to go to some parenting class or participate in mandatory community service just because my child was sick for over 3 days but not sick enough to warrant a doctor's visit.
