Me personally, I am homschooled. Many people say that regular school is a bad influence, and it can get other teens hurt, and that is exactly why I left public school. I just want to know what you guys think about it and which is better... [stfu] <3

If I was homeschooled I would stab myself with a fire poach and have someone repeatedly f*ck the wounds.

I love public school, the way you stay out of trouble is you take the hardest classes possible, that way the idiots are usually filtered out.

and oh yeah, the whole public school and drug thing, well everywhere there are teens there are drugs, private, public at home where ever. I know a couple of kids who are home schooled and they smoke and drink, it's up to the parents and the kid. it's not like "oh im in public school, these kids will make me go smoke weed with them!" lol.

hot damn i love public school.
It provides great experience for the real world because you'll always have to deal with asses so why not learn to deal when you're younger?

I think homeschooling is great. It's been great for me atleast. You get all of the benefits and can meet up with friends or do activities after school.

obivously i think homeschooling is better in my case. but it isn't the right thing for everyone.some people learn better if they are lectured and study things out of books and take tests. and in my opinion the public school systems are a bad influence with drugs and alchohol. don't get me wrong no matter what you are faced with that stuff but if you are around people that love you, all day they probly won't try to get you to do those things. but thats just one persons opinion


If you want to do the fun stuff, you have to go through the hard stuff

I assumed from your other posts that you thought we should all think that, and that it was the truth.

My fault.

Can I see a study on this statement?

How late do you sleep? Parents with young children typically don't get to sleep that late.

I know public school kids who aren't that well adjusted socially either. It doesn't always depend on the school.

How do you know if you've never been homeschooled? I was homeschooled, and truthfully I hated it, but I can see why it is an attractive alternative to public school.


Sleep now, and rest your head, in the morning you'll be dead, no don't cry, please don't dread, cause life is only one path we tread.

Its more like the real world in that students function on a schedule and interact with people constantly. Also, lot of homeschooled kids I know aren't that well adjusted, and attending public school could fix that.

Public school. Even though the kids were effing crazy, I don't think I would have been entertained anywhere near as much if I were homeschooled.
