She was a sad case though. Pushed to extremes by parents who didn't care about her well being - just her results.

There are obviously different reasons for teaching your child at home. You can do it to boost the kids chances of getting into University by the age of 10 or you can do it to ensure a balanced education.

I can only go from stats (lies, lies and dammed lies!) and they show that a greater percentage of kids taught at home achieve high grades.

Obviously the majority of people who teach at home do just want SUCCESS, SUCCESS, SUCCESS by modern material standards, but if you want to be certain that your kids are brought up with a balanced outlook then you can do so easier.

HOWEVER, you will also have to prevent them from playing with other kids until they are 18 years old! My daughters never wanted a Barbie until they went to school. Five minutes interaction with other kids can fuck up anything you've done over the previous 5 years.
