As a homeschooler who's not that and has a group of other not thats, you're right that many homeschoolers do it to restrict or provide incorrect education but you can't generalize that to all.
Your sentence is proof you shouldn't be teaching your kids how to write.
Lemmy threads aren’t formal writing, they’re textualized speech. Of course you’ll find non-standard phrasing. Note that the punctuation and spelling are correct.
What you call formal writing is what many people would call writing that is most easily understood.
Nice.
