If there are 3x as many special needs children being homeschooled vs in public school, maybe the homeschoolers should get a "thank you" tax rebate. And maybe pigs will fly.

Also, the homeschooled special needs child doesn't have to deal with bullying etc., state-sanctioned or otherwise.

Exactly why we homeschooled. By the time my autistic son was in 2nd grade, when I picked the kids up in the afternoon, I could tell that the other boys were messing with his head. I was the smallest boy in my class, shy & a bit naive and I wasn't going to let him go through worse than I did.

If “special needs” includes to keep the little tykes away from CRT, critical theory, trannies, queers, puberty blocking drugs, “secret room” to change clothes, and pedophile teachers, then 100% of parents should be home schooling.

In my opinion, “special learning need” also includes a child who is advanced in a subject. During the 2020/2021 school year, if a parent did not pull their child out of public school for homeschooling or a private school, that child no doubt lost learning opportunities while their school was distance learning. The testing scores nationwide show this. 2020/2021 was mostly a throwaway year educationally for most children in the public school if the school did the distance learning. Especially if there was not a highly involved parent on the scene. However, if the child was homeschooled or in a private school they were generally able to carry on. Placing them back in public school would mean that the students who remained in public school would need to cover material (especially in math) that they never attained proficiency in during the lost year. Children who had received that instruction already would be required to go over it again, being held back from progressing to remain with their fellow classmates in their grade. So, keeping a child in homeschooling or private school would be beneficial to the “special need” for students who did not lose out on learning during the pandemic.

Parents start home schooling...
Kids start to actually learn...
Gee, I wonder what conclusions parents are coming to.

Maybe schools should go back to teaching the basics like English, math, actual science and history, etc. and not dick chopping and faggotry.
