If people want to teach their kids in their own way, it's their business, not a government's. We homeschooled our first child for a bit, then he decided he wanted to go to regular schools. But we've come close to yanking them out a couple of times, and still might if we run into actual problems.
Religion is only one reason to do it. My problem with a lot of current education is that it seems to focus a lot less on the basics and adds more and more stuff that I just don't see as relevant to school.
