I forgot, they don't fit in well with their peers who are rude, loud, and obnoxious. <br /><br />People who know they can't win in the arena of ideas resort to throwing mud, hoping some will stick. It won't work. There are too many well educated, lovely, and kind children graduating from homeschooling these days for anyone with intelligence to believe.kathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00138818343753454140noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14114569.post-20911960908440808122010-08-11T16:01:49.304-05:002010-08-11T16:01:49.304-05:00What Tami said.

In my experience, it seems like the opposite is more likely to be true.Taminoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14114569.post-12852687475419862092010-08-05T17:38:03.902-05:002010-08-05T17:38:03.902-05:00"Lack of learning the norms for future public..."Lack of learning the norms for future public education. Homeschooled children may be well-equipped educationally to move on to higher education, but they may not learn the norms that are expected within the traditional environment." <br /><br />Huh? I am not sure what she was trying to say here. Anyone care to have a stab at it? 'the norms expected within the traditional environment'... I guess, the rides at the amusement park yesterday plastered my brain against the sides of my cranial cavity because I don't get it.Marlishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17207863698433956073noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14114569.post-77053663942485498382010-08-05T07:37:40.496-05:002010-08-05T07:37:40.496-05:00Oh my, that "bored" comment is priceless...Oh my, that "bored" comment is priceless [smile].<br /><br /> ~LukeLuke Holzmannhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07799632321310461828noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14114569.post-66243651684611543792010-08-04T23:51:21.594-05:002010-08-04T23:51:21.594-05:00Yeah a lot of people "think the know best whe...Yeah a lot of people "think the know best when they find ways to denounce home schooling". One thing they might not realize is the fact that many home schoolers are actually advanced students who also actively participate in groups such as 4-H, Church, Scouts, etc.Homeschooling Experthttp://www.theunschoolersemporium.comnoreply@blogger.com
