As of 2003, 2.2% of U.S. children were homeschooled. Roughly 54%
of those homeschooled children were in two-parent households in which
only one parent was in the labor force. The top reason for
homeschooling, cited in 85.4% of cases, was due to concern about the
school environment; this included concerns about safety, drugs, and
negative peer pressure.
