      I don't know how to say this It's not a radical position to homeschool your children The idea that public school is *must be the* solution is as far as I can tell a new, like, hyper-liberal position that is just incoherent when facing the reality of the pandemic...

      I think you're misunderstanding or misrepresenting the argument. I haven't seen meaningful examples of liberals "against homeschool." I do see many liberals being against "the rich will have home school and private tutors while the poor suffer/die in schools we refuse to fix."

      with the level of castigation that i’ve seen it’s hard not to take it as being against. would be less negative if the question was “” how do we use this to help more or all children”, the prevailing attitude is *only the public system will/should work* which seems very hard

      I don't think most people can conceive of a way homeschooling is going "to help all children." If you have an answer to that question I'd be happy to hear it, but it seems too far removed from the actual problem to be raised in a serious way.

      homeschooling lessons seem pretty relevant to a zoom based classroom

      I can see why these people are castigating you. There are parents who need to work, and who can't feed their kids. Suggesting they homeschool is "let them eat cake." It's "move to the summer home." They're probably thinking "eat the rich."

      "Zoom is challenging so we should do more homeschooling" isn't an answer to a working-class (American) parent thinking "my 6 year old can't be left alone at home and if I send him to school I might die, but if I don't go to work I can't pay rent and he loses health insurance."

      it’s a coherent political position to support: taxes public school the right to home school the right to private school universal basic income masks a vastly better public health response rent relief knowledge that public school in person is a vector the right to #microschool

      it’s not a coherent position to support: public school is the only way forward, either we’ll suffer the epidemic losses or we’ll in an uncoordinated way make school (which frankly was not good for many) as a monolithic entity, good over the internet also nobody can microschool

      I can't speak for Canada. In the US, school is compulsory, public schools remain dangerous, and the politicians requiring schools to reopen will homeschool to keep their families safe. Homeschooling isn't illegal, but for a policy maker to talk about it is to dodge responsibility

          Not just the president. People like Rick Scott pushing Florida schools to reopen, but who's grandkids will be able to do distance learning. I found tweets you must be referring to. I don't think exploring options is a bad thing, but I can also very much understand the criticism.

          e.g. he says "most families can afford to spend $12-24/day." A big part of what slowed school-closures in NYC was that kids got lunch at school, and many parents couldn't afford a child's lunch. This thinking certainly feels out of touch with the root of the problem families face
