I think that's partially due to the parents -- they aren't used to having you around all the time, either. And I think most people will agree that the most important element in homeschooling is the parents. They make or break it (nothing against your folks, I'm speaking in general). @Patrick harhar. thanks for that. @Martin my experience talking to homeschoolers is this: the ones who *started out* homeschooling did well and enjoyed it just fine. the ones who started out in public or private school had a hard time adjusting to living with the folks all day.

That explains sooo much! Kidding Nic. You know, you are a pretty good writer... you should be in marketing. Homeschooled? That explains sooo much! Kidding Nic.

I'm not totally convinced. I was homeschooled for a year and it was the lonliest, most awkward, depressing year of my schooling. There are positives and negatives to both sides, I guess it really depends on the parent leading the homeschooling. You really have to make an extra effort to get your kids around other kids otherwise you never learn how to interact. And Nic, trust me, you are one goofy mo-fo!! I don’t know, Nic.
