The old adage that if you want something done right do it yourself appears to be right on target with homeschooling..
It is also illustrating many of the deficiencies of public schools.
There are pretty impressive results. If you want a better scoring child by up to 30% higher than a publicly educated one, keep them at home.
Also if you want them to go to college, your hopes would be confirmed by them having almost a 20% higher chance overall of graduating from a 4 year school, with an advanced degree.
Why is it the government is dissatisfied with homeschooling? It costs the government almost nothing for a productive, better adjusted, citizen?
excerpt:
Not only was there a higher college graduation rate, but compared to public, private and Catholic schooling, those who were homeschooled were found to have the highest GPA and also outperformed in college preparedness tests for reading, science and English.(2)

In the last 10 years discoveries are showing that epigentics is a major component of cancer. We also know the stem cells from cancer, or cancer stem cells are resistant to radiation and chemotherapy, making this approach less desirable for curing the condition. The toxicity of our environment and food chain is part of this problem, by causing dys-regulation of various body processes.
excerpt:
“Virtually, all dietary compounds have the ability to act at the epigenetic level in cancer cells thus influencing the epigenome in a positive or negative way. Particularly, plant derived compounds, such as polyphenols, have the capacity to reverse adverse epigenetic mutations in cancer cells, to inhibit tumorigenesis progression, to prevent the metastatic process or to sensitize cancer cells to chemo and radiotherapy (Vanden Berghe, 2012).

of American history.
Remembering the ‘media-sanitized’
massacre that took place in
