Homeschooling

edited July 2008 in General Discussion
<span style="font-size:75">Well, my mom is considering getting a job as a truck driver. I think its kind of funny, because you dont see to many female truck drivers but w/e. The reason being because she cant find a job. She just graduated from our local Community College to be a Dental Assistant but no one is hiring. Her teacher was supposed to set her up a job before she graduated like she did everyone else but she didnt. So now my mom doesnt have a job and we are expensive people. Meaning, we wouldnt like living off of just my dads income. <br><br>So she is considering being a truck driver. But here is where the homeschooling comes in. If she becomes a truck driver, she would be going long haul. For those of you who dont know what that means, its where they are gone for weeks at a time. If she was gone all the time, I would like never see her and that would really suck. So me and my little sister are considering going with her. But for us to do that, she would have to home school us. <br><br>The thing is, Im not to sure about homeschooling. I mean there are some kids at my church who are home school and they seem to like it fine but I dont know. Ive been in a Public School all my life, so naturally I made friends. I dont know if I could leave them. And, I have heard that homeschooling is harder because the teaching is so one on one. I already struggle a lot in school so I dont know if I could handle the work being any harder.<br><br>Any home schooled kids out there who can prove these things wrong?<br><br><br>Secret Dreams.</span>

  • I'm homeschooled and had the same thoughts as you. I had friends(weren't really friends, but whatever), I had trouble in school, but did okay...<br><br>I don't really know how to answer your question though. :/ Anything more specific? If you know what I'm talking about..?

  • I absolutely love homeschooling. No pere pressure, you can do school in your PJ's, it is so much fun. The only downer is you see all of the movies with teens in highschool and you are dying to find out what it's like to have a locker, if pops really are like that, how exciting it is to switch classes with different teachers, etc. But, since you've already seen some of that, you would enjoy it more.
