My homeschooling experience is similar. When my daughter wanted to go to public schools, she loved it. But she entered the 3rd grade at 6th grade levels and I pulled her out when her test scores Plummeted.

It was fun. Homeschool isn’t fun.

Now I have her back out. It’s a full time job, and I’m a single parent. I now live in an RV in the rural section of Arkansas to keep my bills so low that I can do it.

But yes, if you give school hours to a homeschool curriculum, they soak up the knowledge.

From bottom-of-the-barrel People “Magazine” with way too many unexplained holes in this story to draw any reliable conclusions.

She's planning to study at University of California,

where she hopes to unlearn everything her patriarchal father taught her and join anti-semitic Jew haters and learn how to burn her diplomas without harming the planet while wearing the same underwear for a month.

Last week, my grandson graduated from college. Next week he will graduate from high school.

His high school has classes in the morning and then busses students to the college for afternoon classes. The college classes are in lieu of high school AP courses

My two homeschooled nieces were so fraking busy socially, the stay-at-home dad was amazing. Between clubs, sports, choir, scouts, brownies, and on and on and on.

One is now a very accomplished doctor running her own clinic; the other is a writer and singer.

Once again, the Plandemic sent everyone home, and parents were able to win first hand just what the government indoctrination centers were doing. One of my favorite stories was when a university called all of the dorm students back to their dorms. All of the classes were still online. More than a few parents stated “why am I paying $$$$ for my kid to live in the dorm?

One other story. There was an Ivy League student who lived in South Korea. He was trying to register for his online classes. The online application had a mandatory checkbox for the vaxxine. He was not leaving South Korea. All of his classes were online. They refused to let him “attend” without proof of vaxxine.

He took his hard earned money elsewhere.

My nephew was homeschooled and recently earned his PhD—all without taking on any debt. He is published and starting his new career in medical research.

So many wonderful homeschooling stories here. Applause to all of you who have made a contribution to the next generation.

Doesn’t sound like the little girl in the article has had a harder time than Asian kids with tiger moms. She’ll be happy with a strong knowledge base to choose her own future. Agree that I’d still worry about the college experience.

But, if she isn’t allowed to socialize with other kids and public school teachers, how will she ever know what gender she is or have the opportunity to get into fist fights?
