My mom has 10 grandkids. All of them from ages 1 to teens. They talk and dress respectfully. They don’t hav access to too much TV or internet. The older ones are home schooled. Family values still survive in rural America.

EDIT: the city is a different story.

Fact: Put two families in a room. One home schooled kids. The other, not. Guaranteed every time, the home schooled kids will be obviously brighter, kinder and exhibit a higher moral standard. Anyone can see the difference. The government doesn't like home schooling. It creates children with more potential. Your Mom deserves to be very proud.

As someone who had friends that were home schooled but was not homeschooled myself, homeschooling is something you really want to avoid. Multiple families we knew that homeschooled, only one of these families had kids brighter than the norm, the other families kids were significantly/noticeably less intelligent. ALL homeschooled kids were fucked in the head socially, even the "advanced" ones. You aren't doing your kids any favors by home schooling them, you really aren't. They're going to have to learn to sort the truth from the BS on their own one day anyway (you think you can hold their hand forever?) regular schooling is perfect for that. Just teach your kids to be respectful and think for themselves.

My sister home schools. I wish I could convince my wife to Yelp me make it happen for our boys.
