Author Topic: Is anyone here homeschooled?  (Read 7816 times)


I was in a homeschooling program for 7 years. Grades 2-8.

I am being transferred to a different homeschooling program, but this one is actually quite different.
It has activities and an actual school that I have to go to every friday for tests, catch up on schoolwork, and activities.

So unlike the other homeschooling program I was in, I actually get to socialize a LOT more.  And another reason to being transferred is that the other program was changing many things which caused many forget ups and is making their program fail.

So the school I am going into now is basically public and homeschooling combined.  I get to do my schoolwork at home though as well.

I know that I will enjoy the school that I am going into for my freshmen year!

home schooled kids always turn out to be socially handicapped

good luck getting laid while you're home schooled lol

If I didn't go to public school I wouldn't have any friends.

ive been going to public school my entire life

How would 2 years of less social interaction forget me up?

I started homeschooling, I LOVE it except for the lack of social interaction.

Not really any chances to make friends.

I know plenty of home schooled kids who are extremely social. Not awkward either, you can't tell if they're home schooled or not.

You're obviously looking at a select few.

Are you traditional or Online public school? Online public schools are so much better, cause you actually get to meet lots of people, and of course there's still a Prom and such.



Not to mention you have to wake up usually before 7:00 AM, or else you miss classes ( if you're in high school).  Without classes you lose credit, without credit no graduation. Without no graduation, no college <3

Don't listen to Boltster.

He once suggested the best use for a musical instrument is to pose with it in hopes it'd help him get laid.

Again, I think anybody who is using the "you'll be socially disadvantaged" argument isn't considering the context of home school, but assuming it means doing your entire education in a dark room alone. You could use home schooling as an excuse to be anti-social if you wanted, but that is a separate issue.

I'd advise that the best way to decide if home school for you is to consider:
> If you would work better at home
> If you are able to self manage
> If you are not using it as a shield for human interaction or as a way to avoid studying properly
> If you personally feel it is best for you and your study, and not just a way to sleep in late
> If it is practically a better option (if you live in a rural area for example)

I don't think home schooling is wise for primary education personally but thats a different thing entirely.

I am not very fond of this so called public school, brethren?

how old are you for starters?

my guitar HAS got me laid so what part of that system is flawed?

if you get homeschooled you will spend your entire life without friends, fact.

obviously speaking from experience /forever alone

it's perfectly possible to go outside and make friends when you're homeschooled

I was homeschooled and I'm perfectly normal and currently own a strip club

if you get homeschooled you will spend your entire life without friends, fact.

I've been home schooled my entire life and I have some great friends.
