I fail to see the corilation between a parent failing at potty training and home school vs public school.

Did you home school because your kids aren't potty trained? Or did you home school because you felt the lack of potty training in public schools was a problem? I am at a complete loss over your reasoning. How does a pair of unpotty trained kids figure into your homeschooling choice?

Also this show looks a bit soap mixed with perry maison. We shall see.

Oh, and parents don't fail at potty training.  They just don't even try anymore.  They put them in Pull-ups and wait for them to learn to do it themselves, even if that's age 12.  That's what Robo was talking about up there in the thread.  Schools are getting kids that can't do basic tasks (like going potty and feeding themselves) that should be normal for school age kids.   And if the kids parents have't bothered to teach them how to potty in a restroom by age 7 or 8, how much time do you think they spend on other things, like helping them count or learn their letters?  How much harder do yo uthink this makes the teachers job?

This hurts ALL the kids who attend that school, because the teacher then has to spend more time with the child who can't do the basic tasks, instead of, you know, teaching the subject material. 

So in a nutshell, yes, parents who refuse to potty train their kids contribute to my reasoning for home schooling.  I hope that made sense....at least it was shorterr than my previous post.
