ROFL - No, it wasn't us who sucked - we did very well compared to the rest. We left it like you toss out a bad potato, because having our children tarred by inclusion in a group of mediocre lesser lights wasn't an appealing thought, and we'd come to definite opinions about the other homeschooling parents by then - all of them negative.

It was cultlike, and we had to turn away from it.

Yeh, sounds pretty rough.

Although I have never been involved in any homeschool cults, as you were, my experience with successful vs. unsuccessful homeschooling families has led me to conclude that a great deal depends on the leadership provided by the "big cheese", the "king of the castle", the "buck stops here" guy, the "I wear the pants", the "my way or the highway" guy...you know..the father.

Btw, did you have to get deprogrammed?
