I would believe you. But you are awesome and bringing up the next generation to be able to think and be an individual is worth all the jerks and their comments.
My son who was homeschooled from 4th through 12th is THE MOST HIM HE COULD BE. He doesn’t follow crowds. He is respectful and quiet and polite, well rounded, and definitely knows what he wants to do and is pursuing that. I feel that not institutionalizing him helped him be the independent, unique young man he is.
TY! My kid has had a lawn biz since he was 10. He just bought his first car. He’s 15 with only a permit. LOL! He’ll probably be a millionaire by 40.
