I don't think the social aspect is really the issue it used to be,
though it depends on the area. In places where home-schooling carries a
broader acceptance, it's no longer little Johnny at home by himself all
day with mommy. Instead, it's starting to approach a traditional education
class structure, with home-school co-ops forming, and different parents
teaching different sections.

I've seen a little bit of the teaching materials, and for the most part, it
seems reasonable, although there is still a pretty heavy emphasis on putting
God and Bible references all over. The last one I picked up, I think, was
something similar to "God and Phonics."
