> The statistics about home-schooled children don't support the idea that they have horribly inaccurate models of the world guided mostly by religious thinking. I'd be surprised if any such statistics exist. I've seen studies about the reasons parents choose to homeschool, and various outcomes of homeschooled kids versus public school kids, but none about what particular beliefs homeschooled kids have regarding, say, the age of the Earth. | |||||||||||||||||

Homeschoolers tend to outperform their regular school peers. But I think parental involvement is a significant differential and is probably contributing to the outcomes. | |||||||||||||||||
