(6,795 posts)let us have time off to go to demonstrations....hell, my Religion teacher took 4 of us to one.
We didn't go to a foreign country, but we did study their cultures and went on retreats up in the mountains that were very, very awesome. Can I get some stats on how many home schooled kids get to go on trips to foreign nations. Thx.
We were taken to a polling place my Sr. year.
We spent time at food banks and free lunch places, volunteering.
Okay, I never built a house for a poor person. Can you show me some stats on how many home schooled kids have done so?
We went to Church twice a week.
We were taught and discussed controversial issues daily in our Religion and Debate classes.
I'm guessing that most home schooled, conservative Christian kids haven't done any of the above shit.
Home schooling leaves much to be desired, IMHO.
My father worked 2 jobs and my Mother one to send me to 13 years of Catholic school. I will be forever grateful.
