Homeschooling can be challenging. Yes, homeschoolers statistically are smarter and less scholarly adept. But there are many variables, parents, children, family, friends, education levels, drive, children (yes, I said children twice), etc. If you're not choosing out of fear, give it a try. Maybe it works, maybe not.

As computing power increases and gets smaller it allows new applications to be created. Imagine putting on your augmented reality glasses connected to your phone with wireless HD. The camera on the glasses sends video to the phone which does facial recognition on the people and displays info about them. When you're driving the glasses outline vehicles that you might otherwise not see. If the processing power is there; there will be someone who finds a way to use it.
