Why do you have "way to stupid" in quotation marks? That's not what i wrote.
Most people are too stupid to teach children. I knew that I was too stupid to teach my own child every subject and he would have suffered as a result. It's not an insult. It's just the truth. Most people are not proficient enough to teach. I'm great at many subjects, horrible at others. However, in a pandemic, I would certainly step up and find a way for my child to have the best possible education. Extraordinary circumstances call for extraordinary measures.
The vast majority of parents can teach their K-8 children a standard curriculum. High School students are capable of taking classes on line. What topic would you have a problem teaching if you reviewed the text book? For me, it would be Spanish, maybe.
I never heard of the term crayon curriculum. I just googled it and guess what? google hasn't either, at least not on the first pages. Is that what they teach you in home school? No wonder I never heard of it.
I wouldn't know. I wasn't homeschooled, other than being a voracious reader and an autodidact. I learned the term when I was at university, studying in the STEM departments.

I never learned that term, nor have I ever heard it. So I googled it. You are the expert on that term it seems.
There doesn't need to be a "study" when democrat mayors are publicly stating their cities' schools won't open in the fall.
I googled it like you suggested and the first article was about NYC schools being opened. I'm not buying your study. I'd link to it but it was a Washington post article behind a fire wall.
As a radical liberal, I have zero issues with homeschooling as long as it follows established guidelines and doesn't become an uber-religious indoctrination (teaching idiotic things like young earth creationism)
And who would. Really.
