No, it should not be. There is the socialization issue, there is exposure to other ways of thinking, problem solving, and exposure to different people who have expertise in a particular field.

Charter schools should also not be legal.

I think it inhibits the growth of a child, frankly. I've known two instances where people home schooled, and it was very much about filtering out the outside world. Children need that exposure, especially now in the digital age. I mean, if you're so poor a parent that you cannot even send your kids to school for fear of. . . something, maybe you shouldn't be a parent!

There are hundreds (if not thousands) of reasons someone may choose to be homeschooled.  Thankfully we're free here (at least on this subject) and don't need a "reason" to do it.

That's a terrible argument. A non-argument, actually. "I'm free to discriminate," I guess.
