Yup. Though, I'd venture to say that the kids who are homeschooled (for the most part) would excel in pretty much any environment. There's no substitute for interested parents, and 90% of learning happens at home, anyway. But, it *is* the difference between "Junior is a bright kid" and "Lets see how high this bar can go", to be sure.

The one argument that really stung was with my mother-in-law. She's a former teacher, 30+ years. Lots of ugliness and tears shed between my wife and her.

My personal dislike of her aside, what kind of a grandparent DOESN'T want the very best for their grandkid? I've never even heard of such a thing.
