"Home-schooling is such an unpopular decision..."

I kid you not, you ought to hear how many public schooled kids tell my kids they wish they were homeschooled due to what is going on in their govt. schools. When they ask their parents to be homeschooled, forget it.

OH MAN! I tried pinging you to this thread last night and forgot where the x goes in your name. I needed you here so bad.

I just came from a 4H meeting. All the boys there acted just like all the boys I saw at my daughter's school.

Mondays we have choir, Tuesdays Polish Dance, Wednesday are open for playdates or we can go to our senior's home with all the other homeschoolers, Thursdays our homeschooling group does educational fieldtrips, everyother Friday we have 4H. I'm two months into this and I need a little LESS socialization. I love having my daughter home, my near to four year old is reading and doing simple math and no teacher with less education than I have is calling my daughter "Pokey Nettie" because my daughter can't concentrate in a classroom full of chaos!!!!!!

Thank YOU to all the FReepers who helped my hubby agree that this was the best for our kids.

Well that was my homeschooling rant. I do not know a single homeschooler who's main purpose in life is to keep the children away from all other human beings. That is cliche and stupid. We are just more selective about who we see.
