Ive always found the idea of homeschooling utterly bizzare

I knew some kids who were homeschooled.

They were smarter than most of the kids in my public school class.

Not saying that’s the case everywhere, but the modern public school system is mostly made for indoctrination and funneling taxpayer money to publishers.

The distribution of home schoolers is super bi-modal, either: "we don't want them learning that sinful science and actual history" or "we don't think public education will do a good job for our kids, so we're doing it ourselves"
