People often lump all homeschooling together to create one stereotypical mess of uber-religious, unsocialized children. I myself was homeschooled officially for two years of my life. Throughout my experience, I found that my home environment was a much better institution of learning than any traditional school.
A few weeks back, a friend of mine, a fellow Muslim, described Islam as "not liberal" enough to allow complete gender equality. In my experience at Brandeis, I have found among Muslims and non-Muslims the ideology that the religion of Islam promotes a constrictive form of life, especially for women.
