I've been thinking the same thing.  Also, my understanding is 
Hogwarts is a "private" school where the students are there by 
invitation only and their parents must pay tuition for their
children to go there.  If that is the case, what about the magical children that either are not invited to attend Hogwarts or whose parents can't afford the tuition?  Are those children banned for 
life from not using magic?  Are there "public" schools for magical children?
