Not your day, is it?
Today, my mom kept swearing and punished me while I was in an online lesson. I almost got punished by the teacher as well. FML

Today, after a conference with my teacher who had previously accused me of not doing my homework, she finally discovered she'd been losing it all this time. I've been getting straight Fs for a month. FML

Today, I was told by my teacher that she had 'given up' teaching me because someone had told her I have a mental illness, and that I don't understand what she says. FML

Not missing out on much
Today, my mom is obsessed with my academic success, as she was a highschool dropout, and actually gives me more homework than my school does, all so I’ll be more advanced than my peers. I barely know what a television is anymore, since it’s been so long I’ve had enough free time to watch one. FML

I'm home-schooled as well. My parents aren't brilliant, fairly average in fact, but that's why they make books for your parents to either teach you out of, or you read it yourself. When I went from high school (which was not a bad HS to go to, and that makes me worry for the rest of humanity), to home school, my work was suddenly a lot harder. Not only was the coursework more difficult, it covered a broader range of subjects, more in depth into the subjects, AND I could read the rest of the science book if I wanted! None of that, read pages 42-46 BS.

Same here! In fact I graduated a year early, because one year I decided to double up on work! I didn't have snow days, I had the option to work on Holidays, and sometimes if I wanted a week day off I had to do my work on a weekend! I love homeschool, turned out just fine, and am doing very well for myself.

Going from public school to home schooling made me love school. Well... I've always loved learning, but my peers always irritated me, teachers were zoning out (I had a few teachers I absolutely adored, but for the most part, I think they had given up) and my counselors were absolute trash. Public school felt like an absolute waste of my time, and a waste of my parents' money.

Be prepared for an awkward life. Never met a homeschooled person with any people skills.

Have you ever met a home-schooled person?

133, probably not because the homeschooled hide from people and shun the daylight.

did you miss the part where part if learning is to learn how to find info on your own. education isn't about being spoonfed. if you want to be spoon fed everything and struggle through higher education which requires independent thought and learning, I suggest going to public school and stop giving homeschoolers who can actually research things and realize no one knows everything which is why there are books and the Internet a bad name.
