Most of the comment was spent explaining the counter-arguments to your own accusations.

Homeschool helicopter-parents have thought that public schools are a dumpster fire for as long as they have existed. Parents absolutely do not have the skills alone to give their children a well-rounded education, period. That some people can even think this could ever be different is a testament to the low quality of education and media in the US.

That's why you don't do it alone. You get involved with co-ops, sign them up for classes, use established curricula, and more.

Exactly - they weren't home-schooled.
