--if I have 5 kids then I (in essence) have to pay $35,000 per year to educate them.
That is a lot of money.
State schooling is EXTREMELY expensive...and those parents who send thier children to state schools because it is "free" need to have thier heads examined.
Mr. "answerman" does more then speak truth when he say's "homeschooling does not have to cost anything"
Note: I live in a state that is supposedly ranked the 48th state in school funding...so my $7000 per year per child example is way low for most of you.
