In addition to providing better supervision and overall direction,
school-homing has become popular among mothers and fathers who just want
to be less involved in the day-to-day lives of their children.

child-rearing track work,” Miller said. “Whether it’s over-relying on
after-school programs and extracurricular activities, or simply gross
neglect, school-homing is becoming a widely accepted method of bringing
children up.” —The Onion
