I have never met a fat homeschooler who has been homeschooled from the beginning. Never.

I have. I've also met skinny children who have gone to public schools from the beginning. So what is your ridiculous point?

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

The point is to make others aware of my observation.

I, personally, have never met a fat homeschooler provided he was homeschooled from the beginning. ( And, over the years I have interacted with likely a few thousand in one way or another) Perhaps, if others take notice, they will conclude the same.

The point is what are homeschoolers doing that institutionalized children are not doing? I speculate that homeschoolers have a **lot** more time for play, since homeschooling is so efficient. Also, they have moms at home to supervise the kitchen, make nutritious meals, and control snacks.

I am not a researcher, but all scientific breakthroughs start with an “ah ha” epiphany. Hopefully, this post will be noticed by someone with the curiosity, and means, to prove whether my observation is correct.
