Someone told me most home schoolers end up being smarter and having better jobs :)

i haven't heard that! but i would imagine it because (in our class anyway) we have all the bitchy girls and guys that are full up em selves and stuff and the teacher spends most of his time yelling at them! and now my parents get me a tutor and stuff because i haven't got good marks and stuff and now they are spending heaps and i don't think i would be that bad off if i didn't have them in my class!

You will find as soon as you punch the bullier in the face, and dislocate their Jaw, they wont annoy you again.. you will also get a 5 day suspension, but worth it :D
 
I hope you don't mind me jumping into the conversation. I'm a parent and a teacher. There are lots of reasons that people home school and different ways to do it. It's interesting that no one here seems to be home schooled for religious reasons. This is very common in the USA (one of my cousins is home schooling her kids). In those cases, parents make up their own materials and often get ideas for activities by forming online networks. Sometimes they get together for events like concerts or trips to museums so the kids can have more of a social life.

The other home schooling option, distance education, seems to be what some of you are doing. In that case, the education department has special teachers and material for your parents and you to use at home. Teachers plan out a course of study and mark papers. They are available if you are stuck on something. This is a lot easier on the parents, particularly in high school when subjects get more specialised. Distance education students may have been bullied, have anxiety, have medical problems or be involved in elite sport or acting, so it's too hard to go to regular school.

My son was bullied in primary school and we toyed with the idea of home schooling (I wasn't a teacher at the time), but a change of school worked wonders. The school I teach at is really strict about put downs and bullying, but the smaller boys still cop more than their share of it. It's really unfair and the school puts a lot of effort into trying to change attitudes and the way students treat each other.
 
i only got home schooled for yea 9-10 because when i was at school i was in the middle group type people and use to be hassled by the guys who think they are all that untill i snaped one day and punched onein the chest knocked him to the ground then got kicked out of the school due to him have a lung disorder thing but it's good though i got to muck in at the farm

nah we have only been in dalby for 10 months i lived at kogan for a while then tara but havnt been to dalby high
 
I am sooooooooo anti-bullying at my school. I hate seeing kids being bullied i can't stand it. Bullying is just so hard to deal with at schools because it happens when no adult is looking. I try let all my girls know they can come tell me anything, but some kids are just too scared. Usually bullies have their own BIG issues so sometimes schools go soft on them (bad home lives usually, but not always). I think they should all be punished appropriately, and shown that it's not an acceptable way to take out whatever anger or insecurities they have about themselves.

I wouldn't home school my kids, i'd be more likely to just change schools if there is mega bullying at one. I like the social aspect of schools, even if some teens do chop and change social groups every two weeks! Also i think interaction in a professional manner with other adults is important. (and before anyone says it... there are teachers out there who aren't total (deleted)!!!! I'm only a parital one :p )

Yeah I was home schooled for a couple years, but now I go to TAFE. Wasn't a personal reason, but had some family stuff that kinda added to it.

Just normal textbooks, exactly the same work... It allowed me to work more and get more money cause of having no travel time and stuff. Stayed friends with everyone, they would wag and meet up with me (shocking, I know). But I am glad to be back at TAFE, I missed hanging with mates after class.
 
I was bullyd' in school too.

Was called many names from mid primary school , through high school until i left in year 10. From twiggy, to giraffe legs, to frog eyes, to goth....

I wasnt the ugly duckling, was not short, nor tall, nor big nor small, there are just hurtful people everywhere and until they grow up nothing will change.

I found that it didnt matter who you were friends with if you had a disagreement with one person it meant you had a disagreement with 10 or 20 people (or their little groups)

My older sister didnt help matter as she had a bit of a reputation before i even started high school and people just assumed i was like her.

i never liked school as a kid. but i did like the social side of it. i enjoyed mixing with others. if your home schooled, how do you develope social skills of mixing with other people? school is about being part of a team. i dont see that happening if your home schooled. the only time i see the home schooling should be an option is when you live on some far- out farming station
 
It's important for home schooled students to have social groups like scouts, sports clubs, musical groups or outings with other home schoolers. You need to pick the right social group where there won't be bullying or poor supervision. I think this is one of the most difficult tasks for those doing home schooling.
 
I realise that members are very emotional about what has happened/still happening at school and it takes a lot of guts to pour your heart out , but please keep in mind that promoting illegal activity and swearing are against site rules.
Thanks for you co operation!

i was home schoolled half way through high school but thats because i was sick in and out of hospital all the time and missed lots of days so it was just the easier
 
I was homeschooled for half of year 9, for a couple of reasons. For starters, the school I went to prior to being homeschooled was private and single sex. If anyone's been to an all-girls school you'll know how incredibly bitchy it is. I was one of the few girls who didn't fit in because I was "too nice". People take advantage of your niceness and pick on you, just because you're an "easy target", or so one girl once called me. I moved school for this reason, then a couple months later my mum caught my dad cheating and when given a choice between his family or his mistress he chose his mistress. That just did it for me, I spent the next 6 months being homeschooled and in therapy. I was back to normal after that though and started a new school.
 
I like the idea of school of the air but couldn't teach my kids (i'd go crazy lol) ,as for the scocial aspect they are aloud to go to a normal school a couple of days a week (distance Ed does anyhow)

My eldest is grade 5 & has to go to boarding school in yr 8 she wants to go to an all girls school but i will show her this now. ( we don't live close enough to a high school)
 
As much as you hate school while you are there, when you leave you will miss it.
Maybe not the teachers and the rules ect but the people.
