<p>haha if I had children I’d homeschool them so I never imagined that question 
(that TCS website has scary examples of children caving into peer pressure). But I suppose so as long as I had adequate amounts of money.
[also pure homeschooling might not be ideal - there are more open-ended liberal types of schools - Will Wright went to one of them]</p>
