Yeah like it’s so easy to withdraw your kid from public schools. People like you just blowing hot air like it’s all so simple Repairs to withdraw their kids from public school and teach them at home.

Go back to watching Little House on the Prairie reruns.

Oh never mind everybody on that show sent her kids to public schools as well.

Fact is you probably never had kids in fact two is you probably never with your kids from public schools but here you are on the Internet telling all the other parents what to do.

Get lost

A bit of a sensitive subject for you?

“Fact is you probably never had kids in fact two is you probably never with your kids from public schools but here you are on the Internet telling all the other parents what to do.”

First, mewzilla didn’t tell anyone what to do, they were just stating options. And it IS an option.

I have 4 children, and we homeschooled/private schooled them all. Am I allowed to have an opinion on this? Or do you have some disparaging words for me as well?

We sacrificed a lot to do so. We made deals with the schools to get the cost down. We did whatever we needed to to make it work.

Your reaction was far more reactionary and hostile than necessary. You seem to have an emotional connection to this subject.

1.5 million kids didn’t return to public school in 2020 and 2021. Those parents found a way. Some homeschooled, some private schools, some are online schooling, and some started group homeschooling where each family does one day a week. No, it’s not easy to just change, but it can be done

Depending on the state, it can be pretty easy to withdraw kids from PS. We have homeschooled for 18 years so far, with one more at @ 2nd grade right now. Is it easy? Nope. I work, my wife teaches, we have gone without for a long time. I know single parents who both work and homeschool. Tone down the hostility a little and realize that everyone has different experiences, needs and priorities.

Personally, I would (and have) worked three jobs to allow my wife to stay home and teach our children to keep them out of the tragedies that the public schools have become.
