Schools, hospitals and prisons have much in common. A central authority drives the experience, taking away the autonomy that’s the key to health, healing and happiness.

And new online platforms are facilitating the experience. Interesting fact: Homeschooled children score on average about 25 percent above regular school children on standardized tests.
Homeschooling gets more popular with the changing economy
