There are a variety of reasons to homeschool. In years past, most parents chose homeschool because they wanted to provide their children with a religious education. Today, however, many parents chose homeschool because they want to provide their children with a better education. The cookie-cutter, one-size-fits-all instruction that they schools provide allows for zero individuality or creativity!
I found this article written by a gentleman with a Ph. D. in education. Although I don't have the level of experience or education that he does, I relate to him. I have a masters degree in education and experience teaching in a public school. People like us don't fit the description of typical homeschool parents. I must not here that there isn't really a "typical" homeschool parent anymore. I do believe that you will see more and more teachers choosing homeschool for their own children because they know far too well the inner workings of a school...and it isn't pretty.
Here is Dr. Sherman's article, including his 10 reasons to homeschool. I couldn't have written it better myself!
