Homeschooling is a potentially “dangerous” practice that gives parents “authoritarian control” over their children, if you choose to believe a particular Harvard Law School professor.
But there are almost always two sides to a story, and a school choice expert has issued a powerful refutation of the professor’s claims.
“The issue is, do we think that parents should have 24/7, essentially authoritarian control over their children from ages zero to 18? I think that’s dangerous,” the professor, Elizabeth Bartholet, told Harvard Magazine for a piece titled, “The Risks of Homeschooling.”
