Answer 1

Don't worry about your mom's feelings so much. If you're

really this miserable she should know. It's YOUR feelings

that are the issue here. Be brave,tell her the truth.

Good luck.

Answer 2

I would tell your mom how you are feeling... point blank, you need friends. If she does not want to send you back to school, have her enroll you in classes... do you like dance, karate, art? Are there homeschoolers in your area?

I am not sure why your mom pulled you out of school to homeschool.... but, telling her the truth, and letting her know how miserable you are is a start.

Good luck.

First get off the computer and work on your grammar assignments . Your education should be your first concern, your mother knows this, if your work is slipping even at home you should tell her how you feel about friends. Just because you don't see them at school doesn't mean they're not around.  You should ask to go out some if doing school at home is working you can work on it at anytime you need your friends to help you through life. Best of luck kid, Bones

Answer 5

start writing letters, ring them, ask your parents if you could have a small party, just prepare pizzas, sandwiches, nuts crisps, coke, select some good music, say on invite, missing your friendship, whilst stuying hard at school, come to my party, missed what your up to, okay see what happens, that way, you see your friends, you stay home taught, not to upset your mum, and you will do well in exams, you will, its this niggly problem thats causing the upset, and making you unsure so ask mum, make the food yourself, invite your pals, have a good time.

Answer 6

WHEN YOU FIGURE OUT HOW TELL ME BECAUSE I'M IN THE SAME BOAT.

Answer 7

You are merely a few months in to homeschooling. It can take a few months to decompress from school where you feel you want a break from everything public school, including friends before you recover enough to begin wanting to reconnect a bit again. You are probably in that reconnect phase.

Now is the time to realize that friendships are not based on being thrown in the same rooms together. If there is any depth to a friendship, you make time for it. Decide who you feel can be quality friends beyond being assigned to the same room everyday and reach out to them via the net and by getting together for planned and spontaneous activities. Find some homeschooler friends too.

My daughter is homeschooled and has lots of friends both that are homeschooled and those that are public schooled. We live pretty rural, so she stays quite active in the evening using messaging, Facebook, and social forums. She meets at least twice a week for planned activities and often for spontaneous activities with her friends. Within the last few days they spontaneously got together to go bowling. No one is a huge bowling fan, but they just wanted to get together. They get together about twice a month for a movie night at one of the family's homes. They see each other twice a week in youth group as well. They are a pretty tight group of kids and occassionally have their squabbles just as if they were sibblings. LOL.

My oldest homeschooled son, before he went to college, got together with his friends here for frequent LAN parties. He is big into anything computer and has tended to make friends that feel the same way. We have even had a few LAN parties over summer break from college. I served up pizza mid-day. They brought chips and soda to hold themselves for the rest of the time. These were lots of fun and we enjoyed making them whole day events. The last one went from 10am to 10:30pm. The boys had a blast!

Answer 8

Well, what's to stop you from picking up the phone and calling some of your friends from school now? Or rocking up on their doorstep?

A couple of months is nothing; no time at all. Heaps of kids up here don't see their (at home) friends for longer that that at a time (because they're away at boarding school). They're able to pick up where things were left the last time they were home...and run their friendships despite only being in the same state as each other for about 3 months every year.

Answer 9

If your Mum really cares she will get over it and I am certain that your happiness is her number one priority
