Yet another advantage in home schooling is that the scheduling flexibility opens up employment opportunities that are generally unavailable to public school students. The laws of supply and demand being what they are, public school students face significant employment disadvantages since their availability is limited to times when there is a huge oversupply of other public school students also available for work in a local market (after school, weekends, over breaks). Home school students seeking work have the schedule flexibility to provide needed services at times when the supply of available labor is much smaller.
