#3
Liberals/Democrats hate the idea of Homeschooling, because it by-passes the 12 years of NEA training and indoctrination process..

NO MY BRAG HAT ON
Started Homeschooling ours, while I was doing Rent-a-Geek work at Ft. Bragg.

2 went on to be Mid-level sector managers, and the 3rd made Fireman of the Year recently for a county in the Metro Atlanta area.

#4 Given that we have a good record now of teachers sleeping with their students, the concern is OBE.

#7 Well done, NN2N1. You have much to be proud of.

I never home schooled, because even before I fell ill I lacked the discipline, so I admire anyone who can do it effectively. But I enriched the heck out the trailing daughters and whichever of their friends came home with them on any particular day, challenging them to meet my standards for both learning and work.

I wish I’d got my hands on final daughter while she was still in school — td #1 only met her when both were in their mid-twenties. She is bright, but autistic and both dyslexic and dys-numeric(?). The public school where she grew up was not prepared for her; unfortunately, her mother also was not prepared for all that while home schooling, thinking the child lazy rather than learning disabled. Coupled with severe health issues, final daughter never got past eighth grade in terms of formal education.
