He may have been homeschooled because of his problems not because homeschooling caused them as was suggested on another thread.

I know a kid who was headed for JD. The public school kicked him out. They didn’t want to deal with him any more so his mother was forced to homeschool him. Now if he had gone off the deep end, everyone could point to the fact that he had been homeschooled, which was actually a result of his problems not the cause of them. It would paint a very inaccurate, unflattering picture of homeschoolers and be used with glee by those who wish to bash it.

You are SO RIGHT!

People will use ANYTHING to promote their cause.

Homeschoolers do NOT deserve to be summed up based on the Co situation.
To do so would be wrong.

Lemme change a couple of words, apply it to the story on this thread and see if it rings a bell.

Now if he had gone off the deep end, everyone could point to the fact that he had been in public shool, which was actually a result of his problems not the cause of them. It would paint a very inaccurate, unflattering picture of public schoolers and be used with glee by those who wish to bash it.

Hmmmm.
