Far-left podcaster Jennifer Welch blasts homeschooling as ‘trickle-down stupidity’ and a ‘fundamental crazy Christian problem’
Co-hosts Jennifer Welch and Angie Sullivan of the far-left “I’ve Had It” podcast condemned homeschooling as “weird as f—” and the “worst” idea during their show on Tuesday.
Their comments were in response to a caller to the show complaining about “morons attempting to homeschool their children” when they “probably shouldn’t have even had children to start with.”
Sullivan quickly seized on the caller’s comments, remarking that she worries about “people in Bible study” homeschooling their kids.
“I just think homeschooling is a bad idea, from soup to nuts,” Sullivan said.
“I don’t care if you’re a nuclear physicist. I think it’s just f—ing weird as f— that you want your kids around you all day, every day and all night. And just the socialization.
“For me personally, it was that I would have gotten up on my hands and knees and strapped them to my back and crawled to get them to school every day just to get them where I wasn’t,” she continued.

“So, I don’t trust somebody that wants to be with their kids 24/7. I think a lot of dumb people do it because it’s just easier. And that’s a concern.”
Welch accused parents who choose to homeschool of attempting to “project a script onto their kids” and claimed they were incapable of critical thinking.
“This is trickle-down stupidity. This is MAGA on steroids. This is MAHA. This is tradwife. This is unvaxxed and unjacked and all that s—. This is the worst, worst, worst,” Welch said.
The far-left podcaster argued that homeschooling was part of America’s “fundamental crazy Christian problem,” suggesting it was essentially child abuse.

“I think it’s a huge problem,” Welch said.
“I cannot stand these people, but, again, it’s a pretty big red flag when somebody tells you, when you’re like, ‘What’s their deal? They seem kind of awful,’ [and they say] ‘I was homeschooled.’ You’re like, ‘Yeah.’ I just think it’s such a selfish thing for parents to do.
“I honestly … I’m just gonna say this. I think it’s selfish for parents to push a religion on a child and make them believe just one before they’re old enough to hear about all of them or none of them and decide for themselves. I think it’s all child abuse, honestly.”

In a comment to Fox News Digital, American Culture Project senior fellow and education policy advocate Corey DeAngelis remarked that sending children to government schools for a majority of their childhoods was the real “weird” position.
“It’s not weird to love your children and want them around. It’s weird to outsource them to strangers employed by the government while pretending it’s for their own good. The government school system is filled with documented abuse, bullying, fights, drugs, gangs, violence and relentless socialist indoctrination. That’s the ‘socialization’ these hosts are defending,” DeAngelis said.
“Homeschooling isn’t some radical new experiment,” he continued.
“Parents teaching their own children at home is how human beings learned for thousands of years. The real experiment is the factory-model government schooling system that only exists because of 19th-century Prussian militarism and 20th-century progressive social engineering.
“And that experiment has failed millions of kids,” he added.
“The podcast comments reveal more about the hosts’ contempt for family and parental authority than they do about homeschooling.
“Parents choosing to raise and educate their own children isn’t ‘MAGA on steroids’ or ‘trickle-down stupidity.’ It’s the most natural thing in the world.”
