Just because they have a higher acceptance rate doesn't not mean that you are being courted. It merely means that your kind are accepted more.

But, having been homeschooled all the way through elementary, I will say there are some reeeaall wackos out there who do it (mostly for religious reasons). Then there are the parents who do it because they think they can do better than the public school systems (mine fall into this category).
And how do you know your parents aren't crazy? I'm sure plenty of the children of religious whacko homeschoolers think their parents are sane.
