hey I know a few kids on aps members are homeschooled just wondering how many others are.
i use to be cause I wasn't smart enough for school!!!
I showed them!!!!!!! I now have two degrees adn my second one I graduated with First Class Honours with Distinction.
I would very much like to shove that in their face now.
Someone told me most home schoolers end up being smarter and having better jobs
..What made u all choose to be home-schooled instead of going to the normal school...?
cos i have 2 kids n maybe want them to be home-schooled ... still sceptical tho..
Usually the teaching is undertaken by the parenti see.. so are your textbooks the same as the normal school or different...? n how do u know what stuff to learn..etc..? Is there a teacher coming to teach or ur all by urslf...?
sorry for asking too much..

I know this is a little wimpy lol.. But I was bullied from grade 1 to the start of this year (grade 9) and both primary and highschool would do nothing about it... Grade 7 I broke my leg from a guy throwing me off A bars (I don't know if anyone knows what they are.. you climb on it and its shaped in a "A" shape). Anyway the guy didn't get anytrhing.. only "Don't push/throw people off again".
So my mum decided to move me to a different primary school for the end of the year and it was better. Then went to highschool and got bullied alot the first year cause all the guys got huge growth spurts and I wasn't as tall as them + the girls making fun of me cause I was a short *** lol.. Then the start of this year I started getting called emo and people spreading rumours that I cut my wrists and stuff. Got emails online too. I then would refuse to go to school for nearly 4weeks straight and then my mum finally decided to put me into home school. Much better now, I actually get high grades (I was getting low grades from the bullying, not studying wanting to learn go to school etc) and I don't have to listen to bullies trying to be tough anymore.
I believe school is important for social skills development not just the academic side. I have seen many home schooled children who don't cope in social situations (note: I am not inferring that all home schooled children are social misfits lol).
