Going to a school is where you learn how crazy the world is. You interact with kids that are good, bad, friends, enemies, jocks, dorks, geeks, chicks, tomboys, bitches, bullies, honest, liars, druggies, straight edge, spoiled, poor, genius, idiots, boys, men, girls, women. You have teachers that are caring, could care less, inspiring, dead wood, fair, unfair. You interact with individuals, dozens, and sometimes hundreds of people at a time. Computer labs, machine shops, wood shops, sports equipment, art supplies, and these days even 3D printers. All that interaction in the hallways, homeroom, classrooms, gym, music, art, cafeteria. It's all so overwhelming and scary, but that's all part of it too.
Trying to pack this into the home version is quite an undertaking.
My wife and I were scared, well more nervous, about my kids going to school, and thought about homeschooling. I convinced my wife, who would have be the stay-at-home teacher, that it would be too much, and decided I really wanted my kids to go to school. She kept pushing, but I pointed out how hard it was just taking care of the crazy kids and how hard it would be adding in all the above too. Eventually, she gave up on the idea.

Just because you can do something doesn't mean you should do it or promote it.

"Check me out! I'm dancin! I'm dancin!"
I still quote those occasionally and my family thinks I'm weird.
Yes, but some of us think child abuse is so disturbing that even this word play is not funny.
I'm sure you wouldn't say that joke to the abused child's parents.
How about to some random parents?
Some parents you know?
Your own parents?
Your close friends?
Your spouse?
Yourself?
I draw the line at myself, and even still feel wrong thinking it.
We've got freedom of speech but that doesn't mean you have to say everything that comes to mind. Define a filter for yourself.

My 15 years of professional employment at 4 companies has been much different than yours.
just answer the questions like you're talking to another human, because you are.
You're too elitist if you think someone's question is stupid. Not all people are geniuses, and most employees aren't trained in interviewing.
Plus the question might be weird on purpose to see how you react. Don't be an ass.
