:Which also seems to suggest that a homeschooler is a teacher, making it unclear to me what word is used to mean a homeschooled pupil...

:Anyway, I'd suggest putting in the [sic] and letting it go at that... unless someone wants to add a section on terminology and usage. [[User:Dpbsmith|Dpbsmith]] 16:37, 16 May 2007 (EDT)

:Their giving "home-school" as a "variant" would justify a ''[sic]'', so let's do that. Unfortunately there's another question: is a homeschooler a ''teacher,'' as their definition suggests, and, if so, what is the right word for a homeschooled ''pupil?''
