Compulsory Education

[Perndog]

So in a perfect world parents would have to submit an application to homeschool their kids and someone of at least basic intelligence would review them and keep the idiots from fucking up their offspring. In the real world, the kids with shitty parents probably don't have much hope whether they learn at home or in school, so there's not much that can be done short of taking the kids away entirely (and that's not an education issue).
