Can’t understate the value of drinking more water. Most of us aren’t drinking enough, and when you start drinking water consistently after having not for years, it feels like your entire world has changed.

I’ve got 49 left with about 20 of those lined up to be snagged via evolutions. I’m gonna use this thing, I can’t NOT use it!

I really wish kinja would allow for comment editing so I could stop copying and pasting this reply lol. I was merely stating what I have heard from several friends one night over drinks. What they were talking about was the number of fellow teachers they know that have passed certification in their areas but don’t…
You will never have logical discussions if you only operate out of presuppositions and emotions. Good luck with that.
The biggest shortcoming of the internet is that it makes it impossible to distinguish between the idiots and the trolls.
Again, this is anecdotal from friends. I am certainly going to ask them to clarify more next time we hang out, but I’m just passing along things I was told.
Unfortunately, I think that a lot of the loud advocates of homeschooling are still in the early stages with their kids. Most moms I see posting about how wonderful it is all seem to have kids under the age of 10. This creates an incorrect perception in the public mind that homeschooling parents plan to be the sole…
I mean, I can send you my college transcript, current pay stubs, and marriage license if you need proof...
Exactly. Most of us did dual credit courses at local colleges when we hit high school. The university that I graduated from has actually started a full on homeschooling program where parents send their kids for all of their upper level classes and they get small classes with actual professors, the university has also…
Exactly. That’s why the majority of us growing up transitioned to mostly outside classes once we hit junior high/high school
This. Homeschooled my entire life, and every class I took in high school was with a professor level instructor. One of those classes had a huge impact on my life and I can directly point to it (and the guy who taught it) as a life changing experience that played a huge roll in getting me where I am today.
At any age? You can’t even teach your grade school kids grade school level material? That’s ridiculous.
The majority of that stuff can be taught by most parents at an early level. Once you get to junior high/high school there are loads of classes and resources available for students who don’t have parents qualified to instruct them in those areas. Everyone I knew in high school growing up took outside classes for those…
What an uninformed opinion. Very few homeschoolers are being taught high school level courses by their parents (excluding the weird fringe families). Growing up, we all took external classes either at local colleges or from subject matter experts (usually people with masters or doctorates in their fields). Most…
I was home schooled, my post referenced what I have heard from friends who teach in local high schools. The conversations were random and casual though, so I’m going to be following up with them to explain more.
I will definitely chat with them about it more specifically, this is based off of casual conversations had in the past.
