I don't see any reason for a shortage of teachers other than the lack of appreciation. Parents have been so arrogant and self righteous that they all start homeschooling. They don't think the education system works anymore. I think they are making a mistake if they really are into this only because it's a fad. I see no reason to homeschool other than the lack of good school in your area.
