Answer to Question 1

ANS:
Examples from the textbook include parental satisfaction, individualized attention, and companionship for children.



Answer to Question 2

ANS:
Presumably, one central function of educating children is to prepare them for successful lives as adults. If parents have values and beliefs that lie well outside the mainstream, however, their homeschooled children may be hindered in their ability to function freely and well in the broader society.
