Lemme just question how home schooling is at all possible without one parent (statically more likely to be a woman) staying home to supervise the learning. I don’t think we’re talking about remote ranch situations where you either do online school or have to send them to boarding school.

So I’m genuinely wondering if there’s a corresponding exit from the workplace or other demographic trends allowing/pushing this boom in home schooling to happen?

Yes, it (effectively) requires a parent to stay home, at least 90% of the time.

But that has happened for a long time, at a rate high enough that you wouldn't need to see resignations to increase homeschooling.
