"Without allowing their children to mingle, trade ideas and thoughts with others, these parents are creating social misfits."

What a sick joke.

Send your kids to public school and they WILL be misfits.

A rather ex cathedra statement if you ask me. My daughter attended public school for 12 years and is now halfway through her first year at the Air Force Academy. She's hardly a misfit.

At 42, I STILL carry emotional scars from my years in public school. What a WONDERFUL social experieince that was...NOT!

these parents are creating social misfits
This is only ONE of the most laughable parts of this "editorial".!!
My children go to a private, Christian school. Of my daughters friends in our neighborhood, only one of the public school children will I even allow here to socialize with at all - and then only when I an outside too.
I suppose to not be "social misfits" todays public school children learn how vandalize property( painting stop signs, public road ways, the sides of garages, etc. with their "art"), have social sex with anyone who happens to be around, be a smart alec to adults, etc.
On second thought, maybe home schooled children are social misfits since they seem to be self disciplined, comfortable around adults, respectful of other people and their property, good citizens, intelligent, independent thinkers, etc. They don't fit in with the society that the teachers union has created.
