34. So you DON"T have kids. . .
Edited on Sun Sep-03-06 09:11 PM by mzteris
just as I thought.

When you do, you'll "get it".

I'm not forcing the poor to "do with less". I deliberately moved into a neighborhood and sent my child to a school for the diversity it offered.

You think only the RICH, homeschool?

ROFLMAO.

That's a good one. I can't wait to share that one with my hs'ing friends. Most of us have significantly altered our "lifestyle" so we CAN homeschool. We believe in doing what is best for our children. Even if it means going without the latest in fashion, having a new car, or living in a big house.

I know single moms, stay at home dads, working parents - people who do whatever they have to do because they have NO OTHER CHOICE for their child - but to homeschool. I'm sorry you can't understand that the public classroom is not necessarily the best place for every child to learn.

There are challenged kids and gifted kids and challenged/gifted kids - who CAN NOT!!! get what they need - and deserve - in a public classroom. Do you seriously believe they should be allowed to languish in the "system"?

edit spelling
