Homeschooling seems to be regaining its popularity nowadays. Can anyone tell me what's with it that makes it worth while? What are the pros and cons?

Homeschooling tend to be more on one-on-one teaching so the child gets a lot of focus and attention. That's one advantage. Another is that it can be tailor-made according to the needs of a child. One benefit would be the thought of teaching your child the value of knowledge instead of mere grades. Of course, cons would be regarding a child's social skills. It can be an added task for parents as well.
