DJPOTSIE said exactly what I was going to say! This cartoon is simply an example of the artist’s misunderstanding of homeschooling and modern day education. The fish in school are trapped in a large tank with little to no freedom, forced to follow directions and respond to the sound of a bell multiple times a day (Pavlov anyone?). They can only swim as instructed and when allowed. The homeschooled fish is free in the ocean, learning from his environment and various other kinds of fish and sea creatures. It’s sad how few adults can even see how captive the institutionalized fish truly are.
