Religious reasons for homeschooling

Homeschooling is a choice for some families, this choice can sometimes stem from religion.

Many parents choose to homeschool their children because of their religion.^[31] Even though many parents homeschool for religious reasons, recent sociological work suggests that an increasing number of parents are choosing homeschooling for purely pragmatic reasons: because the academic quality of the local schools leaves something to be desired, or because of bullying or health problems.^[31] Many parents today continue to homeschool for religious reasons, and a religious homeschool curriculum when homeschooling is becoming very common. Some parents have objections to the secular nature of public schools, and homeschool in order to give their children a religious education.
