NancyNellen Posted February 24, 2011 Share Posted February 24, 2011 I home school so that the nosy folks in the neighborhood will have something real to gossip about - it's a public service, really. Oh, and so that I can use all those beautiful and VERY modest denim jumpers in my closet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

homeschoolmom Posted February 24, 2011 Share Posted February 24, 2011 I home school because I needed something to do with my time. I mean I was really under utilized. Working full time, managing my household and being a wife and mother just wasn't enough. Well you said "smart aleck" ;) Seriously? The girl was bored and I could see her going down the slacker path. I also found the constant peer influence less than desirable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arghmatey Posted February 24, 2011 Share Posted February 24, 2011 I tired of watching soap operas and drinking Jack and Coke all day by myself. My babies are great company while I do this all day long. Now I get to cuddle with them at the same time! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mom in High Heels Posted February 24, 2011 Share Posted February 24, 2011 1. Because otherwise I'd have to get a "real" job. 2. So I have someone to take out the dogs during the day. 3. So I don't have to deal with a PTA. 4. So I don't have to volunteer in a class with kids who are clearly not as intelligent as my kid. 5. So I can tell people I'm a teacher. 6. So I have someone help me carry in the groceries. 7. So I can get a teacher discount at certain book/hobby/craft stores. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure if our kids went to school, they'd tell stories that someone would actually take serious and we'd have SWAT teams at the door.

merry gardens Posted February 24, 2011 Share Posted February 24, 2011 I'm doing my part to help lower property taxes and reduce the national debt by saving the taxpayers the expense of educating my children. Plus---did you all you math geniuses realize that despite all the tax money spent on public education-- about half of public school children score at or below the fiftieth percentile mark on standardized tests?

pdalley Posted February 24, 2011 Share Posted February 24, 2011 I want our doorbell to say 'Bazinga'. (Sheldon from The Big Bang Theory uses this as his 'gotcha'. He doesn't understand sarcasm, read faces or inflections well. He's sorta our school mascot.
