who the hell thought it would be a good idea to shove a bunch of kids of the same age into a room for most of the day and let them figure out social interactions from *other kids their age*?? For like, *all* of childhood and teenage years? What the fuck are we doing

Not all of us are unplugged enough to accept this structure. Some of us sacrifice the second paycheck and homeschool, bc adulting is important.

Yeah, homeschooling is totally impractical for a lot of people. My parents sacrificed a lot to make it work, though - penny pinching, no family vacations, second hand clothes, few new toys, borderline food scarcity sometimes.
