So at least my perspective in the UK is rough: endless burnt-out teachers resorting to escalating punitive measures to control kids being raised on landlordism, misogyny, etc. that makes me fear the kind of environment id be exposing a future kid to.

Of course, homeschooling and alternative education is stigmatised across the political sphere, whether it's for legitimate reasons or otherwise. As socialists you also get exposed to a lot of critiques of so-called traditional school systems.

Do any parents here (or otherwise) have experience with homeschooling, or stuff like montessori, democratic schools, etc?
