the state is the one who has guidlines as to what constitutes an actual school. They are the ones who regulate curriculum and hire teachers who have degrees in teaching. None of the homeschooled kids I know are taught by people who have had training as a teacher.
sometimes the curriculum and all the teaches they hire that have degrees cant so the job. some people learn differently and besides there is more to learn then just numbers and letters.how much real life experences have you had? and and how many people make you not want to go to school every day, unless you are the one that makes them misareble wich wouldent suprise me one bit.
If you want to do the fun stuff, you have to go through the hard stuff
I don't determine what is a real school. The state is the one who has guidelines as to what constitutes an actual school. They are the ones who regulate curriculum and hire teachers who have degrees in teaching. None of the homeschooled kids I know are taught by people who have had training as a teacher.
Just because it's state determined also doesn't make it a real school.
And there are kids out there homeschooled by traditionally trained teachers.
How do you determine what is real and what is not?

Want some advice? Go to real school and get a real education.
Just because someone goes to a "real" school doesn't mean they will get a "real" education. There are many different types of schools, many different types of education. How do you determine what is real and what is not?
There are many public rural and urban schools where you can't get a "real" education-- assuming you mean an education with English, Math, Science, etc-- due to lack of funding and lack of materials. But that doesn't mean they don't get an education. How many of us could honestly sow corn, survive on the streets, perform car maintenance like changing oil or a flat, etc? I'm not saying that they can do all those things either, but those things right there are still forms of education.
Well, I'd say remind them that you're there. Gently of course. Talk about what you've been doing in homeschool, and sometimes start conversations about other things. Pop culture, hobbies, things like that.
Look around for other homeschoolers in your area. Realize that you don't need a whole circle of friends when two or three would suffice.
Talk about homeschool when they talk about school. Cuz, in reality, you're going to school too. If they talk about math, talk about your math, if they're talking about what they're reading in English, tell them what you're reading. If they talk about teachers, stick it out for a little bit and just listen until the subject changes. If you put yourself out there, chances are, they'll realize that you're there, and that when they talk about things so limited, they're excluding you, and human nature is for them to think of things that include you.
I'd echo to find extracurricular activities. A sport, or a craft community, look for people who have things in common with you. Volunteering at places is SO much fun when you're homeschooled. Sometimes, the shifts you're on because you can there are senior citizens and stuff, but they are SO MUCH FUN to work with. I still do volunteer work at the hospital but when I was homeschooled I also tutored at elementary schools and stuff and it was a bunch of fun, and it made me fit in with communities, even ones that aren't my age.
Just because nobody understands you, that doesn't mean you're artistic.
I was just thinking and a real easy way to make plans would just to be in some extra curricular activities outside of schools so you can make friends there and talk about something other than school! ;-)

Well, I was homeschooled for three years, and I loved it. I was sent back to public school kicking and screaming (my mom didn't feel like she could teach me math anymore apparently...even though she's an engineer. Oh well).
What is that you're struggling with?
