The choice to homeschool should be there. I think the way that MW had to go about doing it (meeting with teachers, ensuring that her children were learning and where they should be) is the way to go.
It concerns me that nearly anyone who wants to homeschool, can. There is nothing stopping someone who is illiterate or has no concept of basic skills from teaching their kids (and passing on the lack-of-knowledge).
There is also nothing mandating socialization. Yes, there are a lot of options available, but nothing that requires kids to be around other kids. How are they going to learn basic skills like playing with others, problem solving with their peers, sharing, stuff like that. How are these kids going to function in the real world?
