| Gladius, I was all over the place lol. Started private, then public, switched to a different private school, went to a public middle school for about almost 2 years, then finally to homeschooling/long distance school. I've thought about community college here and there, but I feel like it would be rough to get back into the swing of school stuff lol. I've been out of school for so long. |

| All I need is for an evaluator to look at our stuff each year and pass us. |

| void - yeaaaaah. my brother was bullied relentlessly (I got teased too but I'm a lot more hotheaded than him) to the point he finally had it and smacked a boy with his backpack. he got in trouble and the year-long tormenter didn't ( : |

| diva - yeah that's completely valid and fair. unfortunately some people just don't do well in large groups or certain learning methodologies as others |
| Whitewolf |
| As long as the parents or whoever puts in the effort to actually teach them cool, I just can’t help but think of the lazier ones who don’t give a crap you know. |

| My step-sister legit had to be pulled out of school because she was failing, taught at home for a year to get her to where she needed to be, then enrolled in a different school. |

| Parents must submit a notice of intent form each year and that’s it. Sheesh. Lol. |
| The Old Gods |
| Considering my step-sister's school taught to pass state exams for better funding and none of the kids were able to do multiplication going into the 6th grade? In some places, homeschooling is better. |

| brooke - I have a similar range of education; public, then about six months homeschool (we'd just moved) before going to public again, then private, then a mix of homeschool and college classes for high school with JROTC from the local high school thrown in |
| Moongold Magic |
| Not saying they are bad, we just got really strict and different rules, homeschooling is extremely rare simply |
| Gaelic Gladiacres |
| fang - yeah unschooling is basically the parents saying "we're not going to do a formal curricula we're just going to let them learn through -sparkles- experiences" -grimace- |
| Gaelic Gladiacres |
| diva - I know so parents who are far better teachers (my dad - he did substituting also at one point) than the accredited credentialed teachers...... |
| Sweet Valley |
| Im not even taught by my parents. My older sister teaches me. Shes 21 |
| Whitewolf |
| Wow for my state there’s no mandatory curriculum or subjects, no teachers or yearly tests or anything apparently. Kind of wild to let it be so open. |
| CarterStables |
| I call it homeschooling, but it was more of a long distance school, however, I did another program which didn't work as well for me. But I mostly taught myself, just mailed in the tests to the school lol |
| Gaelic Gladiacres |
| honestly it pretty much depends on the work the parents put into it. I can't tell you how many hours mine spent tracking education and finding groups for us to take courses from. we had a math textbook and I always excelled at writing so that was never an issue, but for science, stuff like public speaking/debate, etc, it was better to have others teach. also in my state I think there might be a degree requirement? like yes if you graduated high school that's considered sufficient but my parents are both degreed |
