I am no super man. I am just a carpenter.
As soon as I was awarded sole custody of my children, I began taking them to work with me. As they grew bored, and more competent, I gave them things to do, like sweep. Soon I was arranging for the folks I worked for to pay them minimum wage, and then $10/hour, to do work.
My kids saw how things got done, and learned how to do them, while they got paid to learn. I was always with them, day and night. When they were older (puberty), as we lived in the woods and all the girls in the county were in school, I enrolled them in public school, so they could learn about all those things I couldn't teach them, but that they were old enough and competent enough to handle without my constant presence.
While I was homeschooling them, they also were enrolled in private martial arts lessons, and by the time they entered high school, my eldest particularly, were more than capable of defending themselves physically.
Overall, it worked better than I expected, despite some run-ins with government agencies and the schools themselves. None of them were profiting from my children, and the schools were out tens of thousands of dollars a year because my kids weren't enrolled in school.
While they were young, they chafed at the inability to go to school with their peers. After they graduated and became men, they realized why, and were grateful that they weren't allowed to be taught to hate learning, to obey random authority and institutional administrators, and had a far more developed understanding of economics (from earning, managing, and spending their own wages) and politics.
Only some demons hide amongst the sheep.
It only takes one to hurt the whole flock. Most teachers, bureaucrats, and meter readers aren't corrupt thugs bent on profitable evil. Most aren't as motivated as are parents to take care of their children either, and those few that are bent on evil poison the whole well.
You can't drink only the pure water from a poisoned well. Every drink you draw will have the poison mixed in.
