“Liberal” - bingo!!!! Liberals disdain homeschooling and portray it as an excuse for religious, right-wing zealots not to educate their children to the level that the government deems necessary. Uber-convenient for them to completely ignore the multitudes of amazing homeschool success stories. Case in point: I was recently with my family in NY and saw the Bway show Addams Family (our daughter is Bway wanna-be star!). Anyway, the 18 yo daughter makes an intentional pun to show off her ignorance and, after being corrected, she replies (paraphrase): “What do you want from me, I was homeschooled?”. Audience, of course, replies with uproarious laughter.

The only thing that “Father of the Year” John Edwards was correct about was that there are indeed 2 Americas (not the 2 he portrayed, of course) and they are flying apart at warp speed. The results, unfortunately, cannot be good.

My kids like to play it both ways. If they do something dumb, they say, "What do you expect? I was homeschooled!"

If they do something smart, they say, "Hey, I was homeschooled!"
