One of my sons Friends is home schooled and is now taking courses at a local College at the age of 15.
If the judge actually said this, then he is too bloody ignorant to BE a judge, and should forfeit that office immediately.
Even a cursory study shows that, more often than not, home-schooled kids actually perform BETTER than those "public-schooled".
I have a couple friends (brothers) who were homeschooled, and their younger siblings as well.
One’s an Iraq veteran who came home last year with a wife and two kids (and the MSM tells us that “none of them have come home”) and the other is an engineer at Tinker Air Force Base in OK.
