Spot on with the kids I knew that were home schooled.<br /><br />As with everything I think there are exceptions to the rule but I really think lots of parents fall into homeschooling for some lack luster reasons, like their kid really needs to focus on their figure skating career or the need to COMPLETELY and UTTERLY shelter them from ANYTHING they could possibly do "wrong" in their childhood...like they aren't going to then totally freak the hell out when they hit the morality free zone that college can be.Erikahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16169659895652699244noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5317942384532785896.post-88353284207351708732010-03-01T22:31:13.249-06:002010-03-01T22:31:13.249-06:00It's all out of love, dear ;)

Seriously. WTF?! Now I have another friend who is very smart and takes her homeschooling seriously. I would have HATED being homeschooled as a child.

However, he had a BB gun, and I loved him for that. <br /><br />Then I knew a kid who went from home schooled to public, and now I'm pretty sure he's smoking meth out of a beer can that he holds his weed in. <br /><br />So. I guess it can go either way! <br /><br />Also, bonus points for mentioning Nirvana, SP and Loveline!Travishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02886089228538677690noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5317942384532785896.post-47627940815241333242010-03-01T21:51:54.029-06:002010-03-01T21:51:54.029-06:00Fuck you and the horse you rode in on. My homesko...Fuck you and the horse you rode in on. My homeskooled kids are the mutha-fuckin bomb, bitch. And they'd kick your ass. <br /><br />Okay, seriously...Everyone forms their opinion based on their own life experiences, but the truth of the matter is that basic 12-grade edumacation ain't brain surgery, my friend. Actually, in point of fact, it's kinda sad and a little pathetic. I'd love to show you my source, but I'm actually supposed to be working right now....However, it has been deduced that a basic education from K through 12 grade is approximately 100 hours of instruction. The rest of it is PE, bathroom breaks, lunch, band, and bullshit. <br /><br />That being said, there are tons of homeschooled kids who are weird. There are tons of public schooled kids who are weird. There are tons of homeschooled kids who are dumb as a box of rocks. There are tons of public schooled kids who can't spell their damn name. <br /><br />There's also a fast-growing population of us purple-haired, Perry Ferrel lovin', socially fucked up 90s parents who are producing kick-ass homeschooled kids who can rock a college English class as well as they can rock level 80 on World of Warcraft or their mad self-taught guitar skillz. So suck it. And junk.Aimeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14378883677412146323noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5317942384532785896.post-74092159294876296102010-03-01T21:17:15.159-06:002010-03-01T21:17:15.159-06:00two thumbs up! totally agree that kids who are ho...two thumbs up! totally agree that kids who are home-schooled are really socially retarded. no way around it.Genesishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17203988115609723430noreply@blogger.com
