I thought that was disproven. I mean adults can learn a second language as fast as a child when they learn through immersion like a child does.

@@Falney it's easier to learn a second language after you've learnt your first

It is illegal to prevent a child's education, it falls under child abuse for educational neglect. Even homeschool has standards they need to meet. This kid is going to have a rough life.

@@Falney I Think the age is 13 or something. But the idea was derived from some kids who never had any interaction with anyone. And the cases were to limited to asses whether or not it applies generally. But still having no general Education is bad.

@@Falney But it is somewhat true even for something like chess. Try to find GM's that didn't start learning chess when they were children. Its very rare. Nothing is impossible but it becomes harder and harder as you age.

Sadly as far as I know every state has different Homeschooling laws and even then the control of those laws is basically non existent if nothing major Happens. So not Sure if it's illegal in this case but it's stupid even religious fantastics teach there children how to read.

That wording is just perfect.

If you don't mind can you share some stories I want to hear about that

I know one in particular who's parents were very much like this. Like, they didn't even like her drawing fairies or dragons. All of her art was very obviously reflecting an eating disorder - skinny and boney to an inhuman degree. Like, count the ribs and the waist below is barely thick enough for the spine. But she had major talent, so her parents paid her tuition and sent her to college out of state, on their dime. When she went off to the college, she just... didn't show up to class. She ditched first day, leaving them with the bill, and ran away. I met up with her literal years later and she was in full leather, dyed hair, piercings, tats, everything her creepy religious parents preached was immoral and would send her to hell. Her parents only tolerated me because of my parents being semi religious, but they kept shoving us together because, I'm assuming, weird desires to marry in similar subjects of religion. We had a good laugh about her parents and got coffee. She was looking much better but she told me that she can't draw anymore because she can hear her mother's voice in her head criticizing it and calling it devil worshipping. Which sucked to hear, because there was so much love put into each individually shaded scale and carefully rendered fairy wing, and she was proud of her art no matter what her parents said about it. I told her about the 4H drama she'd missed and she told me her sister was now planning to run away and her brother had, too, but he wasn't coming back to the state like she had. That took me by surprise because her parents claimed he was studying abroad to be so successful. Knowing them, they could be lying to save face, but I think they just... literally don't know their kids. They never tried to know them, just control them. So even in the local homeschool group they're a mockery because their daughter went off the deep end. Good for her, though. She deserves freedom.

They turn into alcohol guzzling, drug crazed criminals.

At least space them out a bit. Pace yourself.

@@thunderflare59 idk i have heard (from friends who are parents, one who has *triplets*) that there's a few years where a kid needs basically 24/7 attention, if you space the kids out by two/three years you can spend about a decade not getting a proper night's sleep for 3 kids. the father of triplets however , well he got fuck-all sleep for the first few years (like all the people with one) but he reckons that it's probably not much harder dealing with three, than with one. economies of scale :p but yeah, for sure that woman should probably just STOP. seems like she'd built her whole ego around being a mother, though :s

@@sjs9698 You do what most people use to do, wait at least 4 year between kids. That is what my parents did and my grandparents did.

That mom also didn't give two shits about amy, I'm an only child, but I have friends who deal with child favoritism, specifically a friend who is two years younger than me, his sister, a year older than me, is pure spoiled Karen and favorite child, assumed I was the same age as her brother without even looking at me after I invited them and their mom to hang out with me and my dad for my birthday.

Lol in states like missouri, correct me if I’m wrong, cause I know very little about this, but I think the standardized tests are optional, and either way, the passing grade is stupidly low

I'm also homeschooled and it's not always this bad I know a lot of homeschooled people and some of them are ahead in grades

In Florida back when I was in middle school and high school (early 2000s) the state required taking the fcat or cat test to insure you were being taught properly. However depending on what curriculum you used at home those test didn’t make sense. My school was considered fully accredited and we had to send in tests for each subject to pass. All that to say in theory having a test for kids to past sounds great and can be a good tool for ensuring they’re able to read and write. But if it’s a subject (algebra for me) that they haven’t done in year and barely made it through the first time with extra help you come out looking like you’ve missed out. I struggled through those test due to subject matter and their weird ass I’m sure Florida version of a word problem. But I worked my ass off on my workbooks and subjects my school program sent me. So it’s a loosing situation. :/

I was homeschooled in MI, IN, and WI. MI had no regulations at all. IN only required that you could prove you meet the core 40 for a highschool diploma. (They didn't do this at the time, but IN does now require that you record 180 days of "school" but there are no qualifications for what that day can look like) WI required that we register as homeschoolers with the local public school, and that we record 180 days of school.

imma be real, i dont think billys gonna have a good life with that mom. i dont think he will go far. its his mom.

sadly, while i'm glad they got the daughter out of there, her presence was probably really good for the kid. now i guess only cps (is that it? child protection services? i'm not usa-ian) can save him.

@@sjs9698 Yeah, you got it right. It is CPS. And I'm not sure how it is for other countries but the kid will have a worse life in the system than with the mom. Sadly, the kid is screwed either way

Yeah once he finds out about real vampires….

Mind you, he's 10 yo. At that age I was watching Courage the cowardly dog and this kid is scared of a vampire drawing, like, what the hell

@Noel Remillard wut

indeed, spot on, really sets the mood, even pisses me off a little how good it is

Damn, you know how to read AND write?! Color me jealous, my dude.

Though I was not homeschooled, my mom made damn sure that I could read, write, know my colors, shapes, alphabet, and could count. And no I am not taking counting to ten, mind. By the time I was five, I could count to 1,000 and beyond.

Yep - I've known a number of homeschooled kids, and all were quite capable and some even smarter than the usual public-school kids their age. The one deficit I've seen is that sometimes they're not as "socially adjusted" in being able to deal with other their age. This may be due to the lack of others around them with whom they can interact - others their own age, since it's more likely that any other siblings will be at least 1-2 years older or younger.

@@jarrodhall3686 homeschooling can be what you make it. in sixth grade i was in a geometry class and a statistics class with 10th graders

I agree with this completely

I get what you're saying, but it's really unfair to expect the sister, who's only 18, to take care of and fix her little brother.

Don't put Billy in the care of his sister, that would be horrid.

What are you talking about!?? His sister is sane, unlike their mother Yes she's 18 but what's the matter? To be true they are lucky they have that age gap, imagine if Amy was 16 or less? She couldn't leave her mother's house and could take the custody of Billy. Get him to be adopted would be better than staying with his mother but he would be a illiterate child on a adoption queue. He would've lost his sister and be lucky to find a family. And I think we need to press that Billy can't stay any longer with his biological nother

@@Saturn.argo.. The problem is, Amy doesn’t even have her own house. It’s not stated wether or not she has a job. But in order for anyone to adopt, not only do you have to be 18. But there’s very strict rules and policies. But to get down to the basics, you have to have a job, a house. And a stable life both mentally and well, financially. Any doesn’t have that, mentally maybe. But with how her family is, she prolly would need therapy. Financially speaking is a no go, seeing as she’s living with OP.

As a former unschooled kid who had cps involved nothing she's doing is actually illegal as long as he has shelter is well fed and clean clothed they will not care. It's more important to them to keep kids at home then anything.

I'd go over for a beer if I had to be in the middle of that, I get pissed easily in situations like that, I've seen my fair share of Karens while shopping, every time there just HAD to be someone there with me to stop me from beating the shit out of said Karen

I'd say "Yeah, I've got everything, but it's all too small for your kid and it's girl's stuff. I got it from another kid and she was much younger."

Exactly!

Exactly what fantasy world is she living in where she thinks having too many crotch goblins is a disibility?

OP has a point. How in the world is it anyone else's fault that you keep getting pregnant and popping out children that your can't afford or can't handle.

@Chris G what does welfare have to do with anything?

@Chris G You know some...interesting women. However, I wouldn't consider it a "major reason". Birth control isn't 100%. There are also a lot of logical reasons why women don't opt for birth control. A lot of different birth controls have life threatening side effects, from blood clots, strokes, and the birth controls that are inserted in the cervix have tendencies to not deploy correctly and to even dislodge into other parts of the body. This can unfortunately lead to emergency hysterectomies if the IUD gets lodged into the uterus or worse if the IUD travels somewhere else like the lungs. So if a woman does fall pregnant to a child they can't afford, there is adoption or abortion. Some people are antiabortion and if they opt for adoption, well the adoption/foster system leads a lot to be desired. So yeah, welfare may possibly be a reason to the women you know, but it's not a major reason.

Willing to bet she got pregnant for attention.

I had "morning sickness" the whole time I was pregnant. But it was more like nausea and vomiting 24/7 and it’s called hyperemesis gravidarum. I lost weight over my pregnancy because of it. I was so weak and sick (it made me very susceptible to the heat and I also live in south Texas) that I would have qualified for a temporary handicap placard, but by that point I was in the hospital so often that it was moot. Some people do get temporary handicap placards while they’re pregnant, but those people would usually get it because they have such horrible sciatica that they can’t walk more than a few feet or situations like mine where they’re really weak. And they’d probably be pretty empathetic to people that have to live with pain, weakness, and exhaustion their whole lives rather than just a few months. Unlike people like the woman in that story that act like their reproductive choices should entitle them to have every other person on earth bow at their feet.

Well, OP said she was visibly pregnant, and she could have had one of those conditions where morning sickness lasts much longer than normal, though I highly doubt it

@Annie absolutely, hyperemesis gravidarum is most definitely a reason to get a placard. My friend also had it for both her pregnancies and was put on bed rest 4 months in. If a doctor gets you the placard, absolutely you can and should take it. My sciatica didn't start till after delivery, I don't even want to think of having that pain while pregnant, mine literally put me on the floor. But, you're right, if she was capable of caring for 4 other kids while pregnant she probably wasn't in that bad a spot. BTW, hopefully your HEB has parking spots for parents with small kids. I would make a point of asking teens who parked in those spots if they forgot their baby, especially the boys, while holding my daughter.

@@Phlimbob the more pregnancies you have the earlier you show, so it is entirely possible she was showing early on. It is also possible that she was still carrying weight from the previous baby so it all just looked more pronounced. However, from her entitled attitude, she was probably whining about it to sound more "deserving" and was just having acid reflux.

fellow homeschooler! yay! i wish people would stop assuming HS are awkward or weird, our family members literally treated me like i was different and wasn’t as smart as public school kids like WHAT

@@kkkora1535 sorry for what you faced body you seem like a good and smart person👍

Sorry if this comes off as rude, but I see it as depending on the kid's parents. I know a family friend's daughter that is home schooled but she is pretty socially awkward since her parents are very very religious and she never really had chances to make friends her age. On the other side of the spectrum, I had a classmate that was perfectly fine as his parents were protective but not to the point where it hurts him at all, which let him socialize plenty.

Yup

Oh he can die with me alright

She was such a cheapskate that she waited for op for long time

That is a fact

yes it does. NTA

You can also claim some religious reasons and not stick with even basic minimum requirements in some states.

Oh yes the standardized test that have been proven time and time again that don't actually do anything to help a child or determine their the level of their education because every standardized test in America are owned by private companies that literally do not give a fuck about education

@@LadyZubat They just get my self-esteem up since I do very well on them.

As someone that was homeschooled my mom hated us doing the standardized tests. But at least in our state she had another option and that was a Portfolio Review. It was more complicated than a test as we would have to put all our tests and other important pieces of things we studied in a safe place, usually an accordion file, and then show the work to a certified teacher that could report on what they saw if we were learning.

@@JediLadyMisty that’s what my mom did for my sisters and I when she pulled us out! I honestly think keeping records and showing them at the end of the year should be standard across the board to prevent kids from falling through the cracks.

Every state is different. I'm in SC and I know of a 10 yr old, daughter of an acquaintance and my niece's best friend, and she can barely read. Her mother "homeschools" her and does her school work on the computer. I feel so bad for the girl. Mother passes her off to grandparents half the time so she can party and get high. If I knew more about the situation I'd try to call CPS. I think they've been called in the past and the girl was just sent to grandparents. So sad.

@@Just1Nora South Carolina?

CPS can’t do anything about truancy or anything about school. They’re more about investigating abuse or neglect, and not teaching wouldn’t fall under that. At least in Texas.

There are states that have absolutely no regulations on homeschooling whatsoever.

@@elib9364 Not teaching the child basic education is neglect.

I was home schooled up to 6th grade, I don't think we ever met up with a licensed teacher but EVERYTHING was documented and we took end of year tests to pass the grade and my mom gave all that stuff to someone to "make it official" I guess. My family is also really religious so learning about christianity was a big part of every day learning but it was never just a class or stressed more than you know a normal education, it was just thrown in like reading lessons or a verse before the start of a class.

@@chubbychick512 I was homeschooled too. Set curriculum and my mom who retired as a doctor taught us for a year. However it was only a year becuase we would have missed too many days in school becuase we were moving. People need to understand that the only difference in homeschooling is the fact that it’s at home not at school. Same things being taught.

@@slippythepickle4539 Well, if you have good parents - like you and the others seem to have had. Unfortunately, there is a lot of leeway in that system allowing people to get away with stuff like that mother and other shenanigans. Yes, those are bad eggs putting a bad rep on those who are doing proper homeschooling and those will always stand out more than those who made sure their homeschooling is up to standard (if not surpassing it, because, well, talented kids/good parents).

If I remember right from when my sister was homeschooled, it depends on the state the school is in. She went to an online school based in a different state for high school.

@@slippythepickle4539 if the parents teaching is qualified and educated then it can be even more educational than normal school because the child/kids get more one-on-one and help. But it bad cases they aren't taught anything of real value and are instead drilled into religious beliefs or even worse. I.e woman made her 13yr old turn tricks with her during class (tricks=prostitution) and that went on for years.

Unschooling has been deemed legal in some states, according to another person in the comments, and I find it concerning.

I'm unschooled but even unschooled kids have requirements we need to meet the difference is that we don't have to abide by the curriculum and can learn how and when we wish

That just feels illegal anyway

I am homeschooled, and yeah I'm pretty sure that not teaching you child anything and saying that you are is a good way to have your child _taken away._

@@RazzBeri1 probably I'm fairly sure it doesn't abide by her homeschool district rules either, if she doesn't have one I know in some places that's illegal though I'm not sure where she lives

@@johngennaria7081 yes,thats what i said "the kid is fucked" also not teaching a kid to read or write is (i think) illegal in most US states so someone should report that and if the kid is lucky someone will,some family member or neighbour... the point is that with some luck the kid might not turn into a florida man article because he has to do some fucked up shit to get some money to stay alive

It's disgusting behavior and it makes absolutely no sense

And its always to "reward" their awful child for being awful... Like "My kid broke the rules so he DESERVES your things!" SMH

I ended up losing a kid's meal toy (it was a Kratt's Creatures toy from Wendy's) to one of these brats when I was little. Mom was no f*cking help whatsoever in getting that toy back; she just said that we should let that girl see if she had that toy already, no doubt assuming she was going to be reasonable and give it back if she already did. Spoiler: I *NEVER* got that toy back. Toys from those kid's meals were SERIOUS BUSINESS as a kid back in the nineties.

That's a silly question. Credit and rental outlets wouldn't exist if people just knew how to save instead of spending money they don't have. Imagine paying $2,100 for a Nintendo Switch over 2 yeaes instead of just saving for it, for example. That's the kind of "deal" you get from these trash places here. But no, the vast majority of people are incapable of thinking into the future at all. If it's more than a couple days away it's like it doesn't exist to many. And there are plenty of predators willing to prey on them knowing it will make them the oodles of money. It doesn't matter what kind of debt it is, you should never be in it.

If it's me, I would chase them out immediately, not in a polite way though. They demand ridiculous things, then I'll give them my wrath. I have no respect for those who disrespect me,as simple as that. I appreciate the mom being so polite to the EM, I could never do that. 😂

Kinda sounds like this case here since he can't read and the mother is a mommy blogger. She sounds like the type to shove her own bad opinions down others throats so unschooling sounds right up her ally... A is lucky to be out of that house...

My mom did unschooling, and it's more about letting the kid find a natural love for learning, than forcing them to do homework or whatever. I still learned to read and write, fairly well since I wanna write a book one day, and I participated in a ton of homeschool groups where we all learned together. There are some homeschoolers like that, but they aren't common.

@@thechaoticgoodbi Yeah, that's what I thought. It doesn't work for every kid, mostly kids with an inclination toward the voracious pursuit of knowledge. You also have to do it correctly. And then there are other kids who benefit more from the strict schedule, curriculum, and homework of normal school.

@@thechaoticgoodbi a long time ago a man in England made a school like that. best teachers and everything. kids only took the classes they wanted. the system was shocked when it turned out that the kids took the classes they needed for the career they wanted. a book called Summerhill by a.s. Neill

I found a group for fun once. It's basically the homeschool parents in QAnon. They talk about how they teach their kids that the earth is flat, that the earth is only about 6k years old, higher level science is made up by the elite, "the left" is out to get them, etc. It was a funny blend of communities, until you realize what's happening to these poor kids.

Those are the only kind of jobs the "unschooled" are ever gonna get.

Oh, definitely not the kid's fault. Karen was just too entitled to see past what she wanted.

I really do hope that child doesn't get what was upwards of the family tree.

I sometimes wonder if EPs were free range kids who managed to survive into adulthood. These people sure acted like children. But, sometimes I wonder if entitlement is inherited. I remember this guy's story about the entitled mom who treated her daughter like a slave, and when the daughter dared to speak out, the EM stole her car, then destroyed her daughter's license when confronted by the cops. The person telling the story said that her grandparents did not raise her aunt to be that way, and that her mother couldn't understand why her little sister was so entitled.

Did someone say it was the kid’s fault?? Genuine question cause I’m afraid I missed that part. But it’s quite dumb of them to blame the kid. The mom prolly over promised and the kid was used to be treated like an angel and have every one of his wishes complied. Besides, the one who threw a tantrum and disturbed everyone at the end was the mom. I feel bad for her husband tho.

@@tntd4424 ugh I hate how people only want to count visible disabilities as disabilities, you sound like a great family that will always have each other's backs about those people, I wish you and your parents a amazing life

@@LittleLyn Thank you so much!

If anyone riding with you has any sort of physical disability i.e. heart condition, bad hip, limited mobility etc. then if you possess the blue placard you can legally park in the handicapped spot. However, you cannot simply swipe the placard for yourself if you have no such disability, as it will only result in the placard being taken and your family member who needs that to access the handicapped spot will not thank you for it, as it costs money to get it replaced and the like. This Karen needs to simply look for a spot that is reserved for expectant mothers *IF* the store has such spots, and if not, then simply asking customer service to call the store manager over to talk about adding such spaces is simple. Or this woman can simply keep her legs shut and not keep spawning kids who will all likely grow up to be entitled stuck-up brats who think that the entire world revolves around them and that no one else matters. I doubt a 250$ parking fine will change her mind anytime soon.

Sounds like your parents actually gave a shit about giving you a proper education.

@@kayhaven4710 they did! They pulled us out because we were in a bad school district. We tried public school after moving, but didn't like it, and just homeschooled until graduation.

@@Patrick-zj4qz Did you take your sister to the prom?

@@jarrodhall3686 lol, no. Went to the local highschool prom with my friends.

Yeah there are some reddit Karen channels where the narrator's voice is hella annoying!!

Yea lol

i too clicked faster than he could say welcome... because if he's saying welcome before you've clicked you might wanna check under your bed

Same

that's not possible

Sheesh

@@slaperofallfish Oh, but it is!

I went through a phase where i thought everyone was a vampire. I watched twilight too young.

I agree on the assessment. Billy (in the last story) is 10 and cannot read or write. That alone should raise many red flags that the EM hasn't met said requirements. It's not frown upon if you do have to do a home school route as there are a lot of resources. However, you'd still have to push for requirements even on a light load of learning. I'm pretty certain A should look more into that depending on what her state regulations are. That could be an issue with EM's means and if B don't meet his goals that falls upon her.

@Chris G mainly will depend on available resources within the state the child is in and what districts have some form of access to them. If it was something like an online charter school or something within district resources then it will be palpable. However, some grade levels will need requirements and some states don't have great requirements.

@Chris G The decision I made to home school was a long researched one as well as talking with others I know who homeschool. With the proper tools and support home schooling is a great option as well. There's a lot of benefits and a few cons just like going to a public school. I do strongly believe that you should have a curriculum to follow so that it can go like it would with public school and meeting the requirements needed to pass.

@Chris G Far left indoctrination? 😂

Damn the sister must be a saint for not reflexively dunking the poor kid across the face...

I think this happens more than people realize.

I grew up in Indiana and was homeschooled my whole life. But I was the mom, I took care of my mom who was always in bed, raised my 2-4 younger siblings. Then when I was 18 and tried to leave, my mom said I hadn't dedicated enough time to my studies. Like, when I was taking care of my family from 7am-midnight or later, when was I supposed to do schoolwork? And the only school books I received was Algebra 1/2 & "what to expect when you're expecting" (cuz I'm just a walking womb that "God" commanded to be a wife and mother. I'm disabled due to the abuse I went through, and I moved to the west coast. Horrible parents scar us for life. I feel for you 💜 and definitely know how you feel. Screwing you out of the ability to get scholarships is disgusting! Oh, and my extended family always called me Cinderella, and they called my immediate family "Little House on the Prairie"

Hey. I was the black sheep in my family too. My youngest sister was the golden child. I’m still considered the black sheep. My cousins were homeschooled too (one ended up going to school at 14) and when they ended up going to University they had to work way harder to catch up. One of my cousins homeschools her kids and they’re very far behind my 5 year old cousin who goes to school. I’m so proud of you for getting into University. You may have to work harder to get to where you want to be but it’ll definitely be worth it. You got this.

why dont just ban homeschooling? Seriously, no parent can replace a school. Theres a reason people study for atleast 7 years to become a teacher. And then some mombie comes around and think they can do better? no way.

​@@derguenter6257 I disagree, but I WILL say that (as a former homeschool mom myself) there should be a lot more regulation done in many states. Some are a hell of a lot more strict than others. I grew up with school teacher parents, and I have heard some of the shitty end of teaching. The biggest issue is overcrowding, and lack of new teachers. A lot of the "teachers" in the schools (at least where I am located--can't speak for anywhere else) they are so short-handed that they put unqualified people into the classrooms just to fill the space. (No joke...bus drivers have even been asked to be long-term subs in core classes. I wish I were kidding). So, you end up with someone with little experience in an over-crowded classroom trying to control a room of anywhere from 20-40 kids. I have 3 of my own and it's like herding cats...I CANNOT imagine more than 10 in a room. Now, add on to the fact that there are kids with behavioral concerns, or learning difficulties, and you have kids who need extra help learning who aren't getting the attention they need in order to learn effectively. Also, not every family can afford the high costs of tutors, or special outside programs. So, **assuming the parents/guardians of the child(ren) are responsible and able to do so**, homeschooling can be a wonderful alternative to facilitate the education for most children. It's a hard thing to regulate for sure, and I agree that not everyone should be allowed to do so. I decided to stop homeschooling because I do not feel like I am doing a good enough job teaching my kids everything they need to succeed at their age level, and I don't want them falling behind. I recognize my limitations, and don't want my kids to suffer because of it. In a perfect world, if every parent considered this we would have no issues. Sadly, it's a reality, and no one really knows how to fix it at this point. Taking it away from people, however, isn't the way to solve that problem when having the flexibility to homeschool is highly beneficial for many families.

It's also different depending on where in the world you live

Dude I'm literally playing stardew too! I'm in fall of year two

I’m playing Breath of the Wild but I love Stardew Valley too

Cool someone else plays games while Listening to Rslash! I usually play Stardew or Minecraft while I let his vids play.

Bro breath of the wild and stardew valley are literally the ones I do while watching just like the people in the comments. Epic.

I'm playing hades and might refund it since in all of hell I haven't seen a Karen yet

Sorry to be THAT person, but it's "curriculum". 😶

Awesome reply! As a homeschool parent in the state of Massachusetts I can vouch for everything you say. The state takes really good care of education and we are one of the leaders of well-educated children in the country. I love the virtual schools that are continuing to spring up throughout the state. It brings us a wonderful opportunity to combine homeschooling with Public School.

@@Chuckf66 thanks I should have added I was writing on my phone and didn't edit

I just have to say that, as a student who experienced a "hybrid method" (part in-school, part online) for this last year, I felt that in-person was a LOT more conducive towards learning in general, but I also believe the feasibility of this system depends on the subject/construction of particular classes. There are some classes that I have taken that I would never want to give up (both because I enjoyed them and because of the amount of things I learned) that would never work online, at least not with the tools currently available. It's just not immersive enough.

California does have regulations? At least that was my experience for the couple years I was homeschooled- my mom was a retired high school calculus teacher and we had a pretty strict cirriculum that went through a charter school that supplied us. A representative from the charter school would test us twice per month and gather examples of homework for each week with proof it was done by us and graded correctly. She then had to submit those assignments to the BoE or else everyone got in trouble

Also online classes have an advantage over bullies. Bullies can't hurt you since a lot of people are watching including the teachers. So it's a big win for victims of bullying.

@@SeerDragon Cyberbullying is still a thing, you know? Bullying prevention is only successful if you kill it at the root, i.e. teach proper behaviour to children, develop their EQ properly, etc. Otherwise people just find loopholes, e.g. if physical and verbal bullying is punished at school the children just turn to exclusion as a way to bully instead

In my opinion, I hope the split doesn't become the norm. Very many families depend on school to have their kids go somewhere so they can go to work. It's very few who have the privilege of working from home or being able to be stay at home parent.

She's halfway there already.

SAAAAAAAME LMAO

it will depend which country (or possibly even area) they live in, I was homeschooled and I never had meetings like that. loads of my homeschool friends couldn't read or write (sigh,,,, i hate that too)

Story 3: Thankfully in my country these are differentiated. We have parking lots for handicapped and parking lots for families with small kids... USA is a weird place these days...

You forgot the tl:dr

FYI if a child is following government curriculum it is called remote, virtual, or at-home-learning. Homeschooling is when the parents are in control of the curriculum

Put her in archery classes !! If she is interested of course
