The grandchildren, etc.
Are not all enrolled in the same schools.
We have three whose school is running in-school classes full time. Along with a few others (helps that I am on the board) insisted that classroom lessons be streamed live. Don’t want them returning to that school in the future and find they are not doing things by the method thee school uses/prefers.
Because we have so much space and multiple dwellings in the compound, we don’t suffer issues of music interfering with study. One piano and the electric keyboards is in the studio over the garage building. The other is in our living room in a wing with out bedrooms or study area. We divided my late MIL’s home next door into classrooms, study areas and a lunchroom. we don’t want the kids studying in their bedrooms and claiming they need doors closed/locked for ability to concentrate.

I disagree with your premise about educated/intelligent as opposed to income level. If a highly intelligent poor person has to absent him/herself from the house 12 hours a day in order to put food on the table, keep lights and heat on, etc. The children don’t benefit as much as with a moderately intelligent parent who can afford to be at home and nurture.
MRS. CTL. has been a designer/builder/Realtor for 40 years but always maintained a home office (with a separate entrance for clients from the outdoors). She was always home when our children were home from school. Any appointments at job sites, showings, vendors were made during school hors or at times I could be home. Thus she has a successful career while being a stay at home mother. Could she have made even more over the years working full time in an outside office, yes, but money beyond a certain amount isn’t going to change our life.

B have high schoolers and are looking for acceptable credit courses at reasonable prices that can be started at any time and done at your own pace; I highly recommend you look at the online classes offered for High Schoolers by Brigham Young University. Because the Mormons require outreach journeys across the world of all members, they have devised a top notch fully accredited on line US High School. The credits are accepted all over and on transcripts by the best US colleges and Universities.
