It happens a lot, and I'm from a community where it was pretty common. I know a handful of well adjusted, very bright homeschooled kids. The remainder are about the same as kids I know who went to bad Christian schools, where the focuses, in order, were 1) faith 2) not being public school and 3) education.
It's viable, but unfortunately there are a lot of parents who are not competent enough to do a very good job.

The vast majority in our homeschool community (over 3000 in our county alone) is made up of families in which the parents are very well educated and hold well-paying jobs that allow the other parent to stay home and homeschool. In our family the parent who works has a PHD in physics and the homeschooling parent has a master's in international business. Friend family has parent who works also with PHD in Physics and homeschooling parent has master's in math. Other friend family has parent who works who is an engineering professor at Univ. of MD, and homeschooling parent has degree in Computer Science. I'll stop here......
