why the hell hogwarts was founded in the first place
Well, assuming children learned magic from their parents before Hogwarts was founded, who knows what they were learning (Dark Arts) or not learning, even. I suppose The Founders felt there should be some regulation and structured education for all children.
JKR has said we'll learn more about the Founders in the next book, so I'll be interested to see if she develops a backstop. Though, I'm probably going to be disappointed. =P
