Video clip of Naval talking about how homeschooling kids is significantly better than having to send kids to school

I don't have kids, curious what parents think about this? Hadn't really considered homeschooling for when I have kids

Well, it’s time we finally had this discussion 

To homeschool or not to homeschool

Assorted thoughts: 
• Wife & I both went to public school. Debated home/school *hard*, ultimately choosing public. 
• We live in an excellent district and yet have hs’d 2/3 boys for 7th grade. 
• We have many hs friends & it’s highly dependent on the system & community you choose (I wanted a classical co-op; still do tbh). Some of those friends struggle with lack of schedule or energy; others flourish in the freedom.
• Those friends say we’re the most homeschooly public school family they know: we try to shape with the best of both worlds. 
• Be clear on why you’re doing it either way. Circumstances— or the why — might change over the years. Re-evaluate yearly if it’s doing what it should.
