The Religious Right scares the hell out of me and I am probably more religious than I come across. Lol. I like everything in moderation and you have these crazies who think the government is somehow polluting our school systems and indoctrinating them with some 'agenda' and want to completely disregard science and fact and what have you because they're so hellbent on making everyone believe what they believe. I mean, seriously. That kind of mentality is what kept Europe in the Dark Ages.

I've known people who were sheltered regardless of how they were schooled as a child ... and they were sheltered and shielded from everything that their parents thought might somehow corrupt them, and you know some of those people ended up royally fucking up their lives the moment they got away from all that because they had no idea how to function in the real world.

Fear breeds fear and you end up with so many poor kids out there who have no idea what to do once the world hits them.

And LJ tends to suck like that from time to time unfortunately.

And that right there is where a lot of the stigma for homeschooling comes from---because it's so much easier for the kid to get far more fucked up if he doesn't have the outlet of public school. Even then, public school's not a guarantee toward normalcy, but it certainly helps most.

I hate bringing personal anecdote into debate, but I know plenty of people myself, my roommate in particular, who were either homeschooled or privately schooled in super religious homes and only in high school began to break free and develop normal social skills.

The program you were on seems like a good one. Skip the absolute shit years that really don't do a whole lot for you formatively to instead get a better education, then reemerge for what's most important.

It's the kids who do it all their lives that I feel sorry for =\

Yeah, the reason I was homeschooled which really as I said before was more like having private tutors was due to the fact that the school system in this city is shit. North Carolina is ranked one of the lowest in the nation as it is, and it's pretty apparent. Granted, prior to this I was enrolled in a private school but that had little to do with religious purposes but rather at the time it was a fairly decent school.

I can't imagine what those kids have to go through when they finally leave their little cocoon to learn that the world isn't what they've been taught it is.

Homeschooling unfortunately is one of those things that can work fine but usually doesn't and I've seen both aspects of it. I left it with a far better education and knowledge on a lot of things that I know I'd never be taught in school and a type of independence, I knew a girl who rarely left her house and aspired to be married out of highschool and have lots of children.
