The iPad advanced math had just as been available a year ago. Maybe a few kids/parents are now discovering this style works for them. Alternatively, I can see parents realizing what a loss lack of school is for small humans. Real work of growing up is socialization, not skills.

FWIW: Nothing I've seen frm public schooled peers indicates it provides socialization in a better way. A lot of the community you need for socialization via homeschooling might already be in place, depending on geo (town of 80k, homeschool group had 100 participating families).

The cohort/village/social learning part is correct. But it’s not clear that the average (or even above average) traditional K-12 school is optimal in providing that. Think about homeschool 2.0 as a loosely organized co-ops of parents interested in finding & providing the optimal.

That's a second job! You're assuming one parent has that job instead of whatever job they have now. The claim here might be that we will go back to breadwinner/homemaker family structure. Dunno, if I had to guess, I'd guess both parents will want out of the house post-COVID.

Homeschooling is one way to make sure your kid is weird. And no, not genius kinda weird.

Please explain your reasoning and define "weird."

socialization doesn't have to occur at school. Who says children need a cohort, village? Many have been home schooled and have gone on to do well.

Most children I knew needed to stay away from village learning. What makes you think children in general need village learning? Village learning is the root of most evils! "The village" in most China-infiltrated locations is full of thieves and evil. Super urban evil.
