Re: Homeschooling
This was my first post on the subject - The ONLY mistake I made was responding to an old post...saw that a little too late. In NO way was I rude. It was the following remarks from you that started this downwards slide...
***First of all - the UK has many homeschoolers and quite a few support groups to boot. There is lots of information on the internet and if you are truely interested in learning more about this subject I would be happy to direct you.
There are many ways to educate and no one way is perfect, right or wrong. I could list as many weaknesses with the public school system.
As you may gather - my children are homeschooled. My husband and I believe in equal rights (find sexist thoughts on women offensive)... Consider ourselves open minded and work on being non-judgemental. We want our kids to experience all healthy things in life. They have traveled the world twice..lived in a few different countries, visited many and are very socially skilled as well as very kind and considerate. They are also involved in all sorts of activities...ballet..karate..art..swimning..etc..
There are as many reasons to homeschool as there are homeschoolers...If your interested I can offer you many websites to visit. I too, thought it was a strange concept..when I first heard of it..be open and learn as much as you can.

Thanks for reading only a "few" of my posts. Must have given you a real insight into who I am. I'm only rude to the one's that deserve it and you my dear, fit right into that category.
You do have an opinion and because it's a different one you feel it necessary to post comments that don't actually say anything worth while and then you run away like a true coward.
At least izibear spent some time on her posts.
And if you really don't care about my opinion, why bother posting?

Re: Homeschooling
Oh well you opera buffs, time for your own thread, this isn't going anywhere and for sake of sanity, i'm locking it.
