weird? Anti-social? Uneducated?
I know, probably a strange question, but I have strange thoughts pop into my head at strange times. :)
I have met homeschoolers whose behaviours and education one might deem "questionable". And I don't mean those who would be different regardless of where they were schooled, but those whose parents had a fairly laissez-faire approach to raising their kids. If those were the only homeschoolers I knew, I'd still homeschool. We'd probably be a little more hard-pressed for daytime social activities ;), but I'd still homeschool. Why? Because the situation has been completely analyzed by me and I'm quite convinced that it's not homeschooling that did it, but how those parents are raising their kids. Which brings in a sub-question:
Do you learn from other homeschoolers' "mistakes"? Do you see something that you think gives homeschoolers a bad rap and make sure that your kids DON'T turn out like that?
