We homeschool in Canada and have done so long before the pandemic. Technically, what we do is distance education, as my kid has teachers, a proper curriculum, assignments, etc. She's absolutely thrived with this, where rural public schools were a nightmare of bullying and neglect.

But here there are rules and real requirements. Based on Oliver's video, homeschooling in the US is an utter shitshow. The anti-intellectualism in the US is incredibly bad.
