"... he learns more than any of your home-schooled sheltered Tali ban govern children would"
Now you've gone off the deep end.
Again, children do not have to be exposed to evil in order to be aware of what is going on in this world. My grandchildren are well read (the classics at a very early age) have been to Europe and some are big NASCAR fans and believe me attending one race will give a person a great view of the outside world.
Start cringing, one of these home schoolers will be interning for one of our Republican Congresswomen this summer.
You are a troll, obviously. If you were a Christian, you would exhibit a bit more humility and graciouslness, and would recognize that those who personally take on the education of their children rather than abdicating that to the godless are to be honored rather than ridiculed.
I predict your stay at FR will be a short one.
Tom Harkin, is that you? Sorry, any one who associates homeschooling with the Taliban looses all credibility.
Thanks for playing.
Dear MikeyA5150,
"Having worked with and had roommates with home schoolers, I would never home school my son."
Perhaps your decision is a good one for your son, as this first sentence of yours is not quite fully decipherable.
Are you saying that you worked with homeschooled folks, and been roommates with homeschooled folks, or are you saying that you worked with folks whose roommates were homeschoolers, or you worked with homeschoolers and had roomates who were somehow "with" homeschoolers? A little clarification would go a long way.
"Well By [sic] using The [sic] Master as the example teacher, I choose to show my child that other ways are out there and to beware. I don't take him to an bad movies(which are about 99% of all that come out recently) But I don't see that public school as Bringing [sic] sin upon my son."
More evidence that perhaps your children are better off in the public schools, at least in terms of learning how to write.
"but to shelter you [sic] child from a social experience is just abuse"
"They are social misfits."
"We discuss this at home and he learns more than any of your home-schooled sheltered Tali ban [sic] govern [sic] children would"
"Not the Tali ban [sic] way of but The [sic] American way differences are good learning tools."
"Don't get me wrong I am not a fan of public schools I just think home schooling is worse."
"I believe that home schooling is abuse."
"home school associations= misfits unable to interact with other misfits."
"Home schooling is not the answer but a problem"
I think that it is entirely possible that any homeschoolers with whom you've met up may not have been the problem party in the relationship between you and them. ;-)
"Wow somebody has misjudged me!!!"
Based on your incendiary language, perhaps the question is just who is the social misfit.
"By not fitting in, I mean they don't socialize well."
By using your incendiary language in a forum with many homeschooled families, and in a forum that prohibits personal attacks, you show that you don't socialize well.
"Unless you are afraid of your parenting abilities then shouldn't you be able to let you children be with others that are different."
Ironically, it is usually those most in fear of their parenting skills who are most anti-homeschooling.
"I teach the values and, for the most part the facts of sciences and writing."
Based on the demonstration of your writing abilities in this thread, perhaps you should leave the teaching of that to the public schools.

You won't take him to movies where objectionable material may be portrayed, but you will send him to a school for seven hours a day, five days aweek, where he lives in the midst of, is affected by, and may participate in many of the same behaviors? When you go to a zoo, do you just look at the animals or do you enter the enclosures and try to play with them?
