I will forever be a living repudiation against every anti-homeschooling lie they generate.

“They won’t be adapted as well to society if they don’t go to public school.”

Bullshit. In my case, public school was the biggest problem. In 6th grade I was bullied to the point of suicidal depression, which the teachers blamed me and coddled the bullies (of course).

As for “not fitting in”, I met my wife in my teens and we’ve been together for 25 years with three kids.  I think I fit in just fine.

“The parents aren’t educated enough to teach their children. The homeschool kids will be dumber.”

Lies from smug elitists. My mother only had a high school diploma. I got my GED at 16 and was in trade school at 17.  I’ve got an associates degree and a nursing license, so I’m now MORE educated than she is.

Now my homeschooled son has his GED and is in trade school. When he’s done, he’ll be earning more than I do. 

“Only people above a certain income can afford it.”

Again, not true. My dad worked. And my mother worked a side job AND taught me at a high school level at the same time.  We were nowhere near high income. Comfortable, but certainly not well off.

Every lie told about homeschooling is a narcissistic projection of why they THINK homeschooling SHOULD be a failure but it’s not and it never has been no matter how hard they want it to be true.
