Your argument yourself seems like a butthurt rant as well.

butthurt
both arguments are invalid, there's no use on arguing if there is no gray area.

Too ambiguous to be a coherent point so I can't really argue.
You could have the attitude "oh the school system sucks and is pointless I won't pay attention."
Or you could think "Meh, I might not learn much but I might as well pay attention so I can learn a little bit. Maybe I'll read my textbook tonight so I can get a better understanding"
You probably will learn a lot more and remember more if you think more like the second choice.

The people who are successful are the people who can be flexible enough to fit in the system. Inevitably there will be some people who can't fit in the system no matter how hard they try, but there is no system that can fit everyone. That's why I think the kind of education reform we need is to get rid of federal standards, and even some state standards, so schools in different areas use a system that will fit the needs of their students the best.

Oh stfu youre helping neither side and all you do is make annoying comments

And neither are you by making this post.

You mean homeschooling gives socially untrained kids the ability to succeed, if they also had the ability to socialize properly with other humans of their generation.

I'm not saying kids need to do drugs like the bad kids do in school, I'm saying that homeschooling does not provide kids with the same social interactions they get everyday with their friends that they don't get at home.  
I'm perfectly social. I don't know what you are talking about. Other than your biased view. Don't generalize an entire schooling group.
I could say that all public schoolers think that school is all about friends and socializing. Which is an entirely biased statement. Don't give me any of this bull.

personally I blame everybody but me for my problems


ike has a love for school and learning but hasn't experienced it in the field. 

I've gone to school. The only reason I stopped going there is because I was "diagnosed" with ADHD by the loving stupid teachers and my mom thought that she didn't want to drive me to school every day if they don't really want to teach me anything.

Also that there's no bus stop on my road.

That's why you post so much. You feel the constant need for us to entertain you with a new subject.

Dear god it all makes sense now.


I agree except in math. if you explain it to me once, I get it down, so the rest of class is very very boring. Almost every day I fall asleep or get pretty close to falling asleep from sheer boredom.

Oh forget off already you stupid prick.

I can entertain myself, I just like talking to people and all my friends go to school so nobody regularly visits except on weekends or after school.
