For this special Streetmail survey, we asked the same question across the country. You have an extra week to vote if you haven't already. Next week we'll have response from our neck of the woods and around the country. In the meantime, here's some local feedback. Life is not hunkering down in your home.

I agree that something is very wrong with our public schools, but I don't believe that home-schooling is the answer. I've been swirling this question round my taste buds like a fine wine lately, and I'm of the same mind as Ms. Prouty. I can see the beauty of an ideal home-school situation in a happy, open country village somewhere. But most people don't live in such wonderful spots. The premise that a home-schooled child is withdrawn from society is bogus.
